Movies With Traps

[jester47]

Considering the news about traps, I was thinking that we should have a thread about movies with inspirational traps. (this might seem like it belongs in media, but I think givne the news it could work here too... mods move at your whim)

Raiders of the Lost Ark
The Temple of Doom
The Last Crusade
Goonies
National Treasure 1
National Treasure 2
Conan the Destroyer
The Mummy
The Mummy Returns

What are some others?

Tomb Raider comes to mind
Star Wars (if you consider the trash compactor a trap, but I think that is a good example of an event that could be treated as a trap in game)
Return of the Jedi (Pit in Jabba's palace)
Ladyhawk (Walk on the left side)
I Am Legend (Snare traps)
Tomas Crown Affair (if you consider the dropping security doors meant to trap wouldbe thieves)

 

[Old Drew Id]

Saw (and sequels)
Space Quest (the convoluted path to the self-destruct override button)
Nothing But Trouble (trapdoor)
Alien vs Predator
Princess Bride (the fire swamp)
The Poseidon Adventure

James Bond movies and other pulp spy movies have devices that function like traps, often with knockout gas or darts or something similar.

Any war movie with land mines.

Also, there are a lot of "heist" movies with alarm systems that would qualify as traps in d20. Ocean's Eleven has a few examples.

 

[Angel Tarragon]

Hellraiser

 

[Wulf Ratbane]

CUBE.

 

[GlassJaw]

Arnie made traps to fight the Predator.

 

[szilard]

Return of the Jedi (Pit in Jabba's palace)

...and the Ewoks.
