Camp Cold Brook

First of all, Chad Michael Murray is a good actor, average at best so I decided to give this a try since I haven't seen any movies of him recently.....I was wrong on this one, this is a real letdown of a film, they could have done much better with the scares, but they did not do it, predictable story, flat ending and lesson learned this time.

not worth a watch. watch something scarier and better...

Jack Wilson (Chad Michael Murray) is the star of the paranormal show, Haunt Squad. Angela (Danielle Harris) is his costar. They are getting canceled. It's time to go big or go home. They are given one more show to turn things around. They head to Camp Cold Brook. There was a murder spree in the past and no one has ever investigated the site.

The premise is kinda cheesy. This does have CMM and Danielle Harris. With only four characters, the kill potential is limited. Nothing happens for far too long. It's only the last fifteen minutes when it does anything. By then, it's too late. It's not anything that scary anyways.

Once again here we go with a movie that had such possibilities but ended up being a total pile of garbage. LOVE Danielle Harris but even she could not save this movie. I gave it a 5 just because of her. They could have taken this ghost story to such awesome levels but left it totally flat. Not sure what is happening with Hollywood these days.......someone just seems to wake up one morning and say "hey, lets make a horror movie today but let's not think it through let's just go for it and see what happens"..........

I wasted 90 minutes of my life I'll never get back after watching this.

For the first 68 mins I was waiting for the movie to get going...then nothing really happened. Stupid illogical characters, no horror or scares. It's basically PG

It was long ago when I stumbled upon "Camp Cold Brook" , thought the poster's cool and it's produced by Joe Dante, so it has been sitting on my watchlist for a year or two. Now that it has finally come out, I can officially say that I'm disappointed.

"Camp Cold Brook" is an undeniably eventful and effortful piece of horror - we follow Jack (Chad Michael Murray) and his paranormal team of the show "Haunt Squad" as they find themselves making their hopefully game-changing new episode on the grounds of an abandoned summer camp where a mass murder has taken place years ago. It might seem that the found-footage shtick might be in use, but it's not, just minimalistically. It's still a classic, (at this point) conventional story & to spice it up, the filmmakers mixed it up with... one or two other conventional story lines. The twists are largely predictable, the characters are one-dimensional and the action - bland. "Camp Cold Brook" has very little flair, even less originality, but a lot of effort for the cliché's and cheese, which I personally can't give much props for. The acting performances are fine, albeit clothed up in uninspiring characters, genre fans will likely appreciate seeing Danielle Harris. The cinematographer has really tried to make "Camp Cold Brook" aesthetically enjoyable, dynamic, but on the background of other flaws, it eventually wore itself out or, in other words, ceased to impress.

"Camp Cold Brook" is a horror movie for those less experienced in the genre, for it utilizes old tropes, cheap technical solutions and bland story arcs. It has little to none gore or sexuality, so I'd assume teenagers can a get a kick or two out of this. My rating: 4/10.
