i miss…deathtraps:

For all the superhero movies we’re inundated with…nobody puts effort into their villainous craft. How are we supposed to encourage the youth?

4 walls inching ever closer together. Bonus if they got spikes.

Stairs that drop into a deadly ramp. (Also acceptable Conveyor Belt-O-Doom!)

Trapdoors in the floor that plunge into a pit of
a) snakes
b) spikes
c) snakes and spikes.

Knock out gas emitting from doorknobs and lapel flowers.

Quicksand. Lava Pits.

Submerged into a pool with a strange water creature.

Strapped to a rocket…

I miss deathtraps…
