Synopsis

Four teenagers who are looking for a missing friend come across an abandoned tourist attraction called Slausen's Lost Oasis that is filled with mannequins. The place no longer has any business since the new highway has bypassed it. During the night, the teenagers go over to Slausen's house one at a time and never return. Unknown to them is the fact that Slausen's younger brother Davey lives there, and that he is insane, has superhuman strength, and a knack for building the strangely lifelike mannequins that populate the "museum."

Trivia

The opening sequence with the items flying out of the cabinet was filmed with the cabinet nailed to the ceiling and the crew where on top of the ceiling flinging items straight down. When it is shown in the film, it gives the illusion that the items are flying straight out.
