About Hell's Trap (1989)

Nacho and Mauricio are friends, but their competitive nature has them at each other's throats. After an embarrassing defeat, Mauricio comes up with one last bet to settle the score. When a number of gory bear attacks are reported in the paper, the boys decide whoever can kill the deadly beast will be declared the macho-est man of them all. With girlfriends and sidekicks in tow they venture out for the ultimate hunt, but when they start getting attacked and mutilated they realize they’ve gone from being the hunters to the hunted! And the bear they thought they’d catch may be something more sinister than they could have ever dreamed…

From iconic Mexican director Pedro Galindo III (Vacation of Terror II) comes this little seen entry into the slasher genre. Starring frequent collaborator Pedro Fernández (Vacation of Terror, Panic in the Mountains) and a varied ensemble cast, this slice of Mexican horror is packed with extremely elaborate kills, gore and tension worthy of Hitchcock, along with colorful characters and Galindo’s easy comic tone.

Directed by: Pedro Gallindo III. Running time: 76 min.
