What it is:
Booby Traps is a feature-length comedy of disgustingly absurd proportions. It tells the tale of the lovely ladies of Tau Nu Alpha Sorority who, while forced to spend the night in a creepy, old house, unleash an unspeakable evil that picks them off one-by-one...by attacking their breasts. Booby Traps: It'll get you in the end. In the front.
The film pays loving tribute to the women-in-peril slasher films of the 1980's, while also taking a few joyful jabs at them. The look and feel will be straight-up 80's horror: synthesized music, gross clothing, ill-timed thunderstorms and all the boobs and blood you can handle.
In order to realize our dreams of shooting the feature, we're taking a cue from Doris Wishman (the late, great "Godmother of Porn") and shooting a trailer for Booby Traps to show potential investors. Just like the feature, the trailer will be jam-packed full of jaw-dropping hilarity and amazing make-up effects. (In addition to some very elaborate gore scene set-ups, the actors will have custom-made breasts attached to their chests in order to better get impaled, mangled and sucked in vacuum cleaners. C'mon...you know you want to see that!)
