Camp Blood

Taken for what it is (micro-budget, videotaped, mindless entertainment), this movie actually rocks ! Compared to other films in the genre, this one is actually near the top of the heap. It manages to stay very entertaining most of the way through (though some of the fight scenes are a little on the long side), the acting actually isn't that bad (it's part of the fun of this film), and the editing was top-notch. Also, Jay (played by Tim Young) and Bromley Thatcher (played by Joe Hagerty) add some great comic touches. It's got it all: A slasher in a clown mask, obligatory nudity, laughs, no overly-disturbing subject matter, and no logic whatsoever. If you like to watch cheesy movies late at night with friends while drinking, you should check out this little gem.

Where oh where can I start?!?!

First off... I won't even attempt talking about the plot... as others have...

This is the WORST movie I've ever seen!! BUT IT'S SO GOOD!!! It's so bad... and cheezy... and cheap, that's it's the best movie I've seen in forever!!!

The director must have known the actors like as friends, because... who would pick those people?!?! I mean, REALLY! The lead girl.. is NOTHING like stars look now... She's.. just.. not a star looking person.. LOL. And you know how movies are now, and her boyfriend looks like a model.. perfect body.. it's just weird!!

And JAY.... Played by Tim Young.. is... ADORABLE! But so stupid!!! He really is cute... I won't say anymore.. lol

And, err... how exactly did lead girl know that that girl was Harris's girlfriend!?!? No one told her...

But really... I have no idea what happened at the end. It MADE NO SENCE. IT MADE NO SENCE. It confused me, bad... First, like let's say Mulholland Dr. has done, had characters being different people, because someone dreamed or imagined it all.. that's what I thought at first!! But... then... I mean I don't know.. was it the same people, just playing different roles, because the budget was SO CHEAP!? Couldn't they have got a few people who didn't care about money to do that minute of filming?? Oh well...

It doesn't make sence, but still, I liked the movie! But really, the only reason I liked it is because Tim Young is cute, probably...

Well, I give it a 7/10 for fun value!!

Not even good in a bad way. Group of adults head out to a camp site called Camp Blood (?!?!?) where lots of murders have occurred in the past for a little fun and excitement. Well guess who shows up with a big pointy shiney knife? So bad and so low budgeted the actors had to play more then one role in the film! The sex scenes in the film come off laughable and the violence in the film is your basic stuff you can do at home yourself. If you are looking for a Friday the 13th. rip-off stick with The Burning instead. N/R; Violence and Sexual Situations.

As far as cheap shot-on-video horror films go, CAMP BLOOD is very much of a muchness. It offers absolutely nothing that wasn't already done to death by other slasher films in the 1980s; the story of a killer wearing a clown mask stalking the woods and killing teenagers is completely predictable and everything that happens is long telegraphed in advance. Die-hard horror fans will be put off by the absence of any special effects and the cheesy, orange-looking blood, and cinema fans will be repulsed by the zero-level production values and less-than-impressive talents of the amateur dramatic student cast.

However…is it the worst film I've ever seen? No, far from it. Films like this, which rip-off literally dozens of other efforts that have come previously, occupy their own notch on the scale of cinematic badness, just above even-worse outings like the deliberately puerile dreck that is LESBIAN VAMPIRE KILLERS. Yes, I'd still rather watch CAMP BLOOD again – with all its raw, inevitably lacking running-through-the-woods type antics – than more expensive, studio-made fare that has no excuse to get it so wrong.

I am a true Horror fan, if it's low budget ive probably seen it as well. i can understand that people out there who are the same as me, don't mind bying low budget horrors, with slightly wonky cameras, bad, bad acting, so when i bought this i new it was going to be like all the other really lame horror flicks id'd seen, but somehow still enjoyed, but please please pooolease, let me warn you, stay away from this utter crap, it is really bad, even the actors are laughing at themselves, bad picture, orange blood, just watch the beginning where the blond climbs over the twig, and then falls down in the stream, it's the most insulting piece of rubbish ive ever seen.

Think of your friends, a camera and you laughing, that's how bad
