This is a petition for Universal Studios to release director Fred Walton's TRAPPED on DVD or streaming, or at least give the distribution rights to someone else who will. This rare made-for-TV horror film from the director of "When a Stranger Calls" premiered on the USA Network in 1989 and was only ever made available on VHS. It has long been out of print. A faithful cult following of fans who remember this movie have long hoped for a DVD release, and we believe that will revive interest in this lost gem. We are not asking for a deluxe edition with lots of extras; a bare-bones release will be just fine. Even put it on one of those 4-movies-on-1-disc DVDs. We just want this fine film preserved. Thank you for your time.
Also, check out my novelization for TRAPPED, available to read for free here.

Release Trapped on DVD or Amazon Prime! Some people, like me, only watch 80s movies, as they were the best! This is a great movie!
Please do something with this movie, any upgrade will do. I think tv movies are heavily underrated and this one is no exception.
Please! This is one great film, and any dvd/ Blu ray production would see a profit.
Great film. I have been wishing for a release going all the way back to the laserdisc days.
I love this movie, and have done ever since I first saw it in 1989. I would love a dvd/blu ray release.
I so want to watch this film again
Absolutely loved this classic. Like many others
