Special Features: |
- "The Making of 'Hell's Trap" (7:46, HD) is an interview with producer Eduardo Galindo, who makes a slightly weird claim that "Hell's Trap" predated "Friday the 13th." Trying to go against trends in sex comedies, the Galindo Family elected to make horror movies, returning to Mexico, including work inside a mine for the five-week-long shoot (resulting in one actor getting lost in the underground maze). Casting is highlighted, along with technical achievements, and memories from the premiere are shared.
- "From Super Blonde to Movie Villian" (12:37, HD) is an interview with actress Marisol Santacruz, who came into contact with "Hell's Trap" at an awards ceremony, offered a part by Pedro Galindo III, Eduardo Galindo, and Santiago Galindo. The role was one of her first acting jobs, soon dealing with the pressures of performance and the behavior of her headstrong mother. Santacruz recalls the hectic time in her life, balancing the responsibilities of her days on "Hell's Trap" with her duties as a beer pitchwoman, which often threatened her employment on the film. The interviewee provides memories from the shoot and her thoughts on character business as an acting novice. She also praises Gallindo III, who delivered an appreciation of cinema to help with her screen presence. The interviewee also praises her co-stars and her time with horror makeup, and she recalls the premiere of the movie, which made her grandmother cry for all the wrong reasons.
- "Mexican Special Effects" (5:46, HD) is an interview with special effects artist Jorge Farfan, who describes the bulk of his work as either taking place in a "jungle or forest." He provides a few memories from the "Missing in Action" shoot, using some of that experience to create a survival scene in "Hell's Trap." It's a Hollywood education brought to Mexican cinema, and the interviewee explores his thoughts on cinematography, editing, and the "four elements" to help create exciting features.
