Booby Trap (1986)

It is 1998 and the city of Los Angeles has been quarantined off after a plague wiped out 120 million people in the country. Law and order no longer exists, but disease, violence and immorality are running rampant. A young man and his family are being terrorized by a local gang and nobody will help. When the gang kills his grandmother and breaks his legs, the computer savvy cripple goes on the defensive and sets booby traps around the neighborhood. It is war and the traps kill the gang members one by one in the most bizarre and vicious way imaginable. Not your average post-apocalyptic feature, it is more of a MacGyver-style revenge film with remote-controlled robots versus marauding gangs. It does somehow show mankind's ability to overcome the struggling ways of fate and makes you think about what calamities might lie ahead. 96 minutes STANDARD FORMAT English audio soundtrack DVD is NTSC format, Region 0 (region free) playable world wide Also known as: Wired to Kill Written and Directed by Francis Schaeffer Starring: Emily Longstreth, Devin Hoelscher, Merritt Butrick, Frank Collison, Tony 'Tiny' Lister, Kim Milford, and Michael Wollet
