Camp Slaughter

Story: A bunch of teenagers go to a camp and get killed. According to the people who made this film, it's a celebration to low budget horror movies, especially Friday the 13th. I love those movies, but I truly hate this one.

Camp Slaughter has nothing of what once made the Friday the 13th movies great. 20 years later, the special effects are even worse, truly terrible. The acting never was a major factor for the success of Friday movies, but compared to the acting in Camp Slaughter, the whole crew should have gotten Academy awards. Neither does Camp Slaughter have any of the kind of self ironic humour that always where present in the older low budget movies. And worst of all: it has no originality what so ever. Everything in Camp Slaughter has not only been done before, it has been done much much better before. In fact: it has never been done worse. Camp Slaughter is not a celebration to Friday the 13th. It's a rip off that, if anything, gives the whole genre of low budget horror movies a bad name.

And no, it's not even so bad it's good. It's just so bad it's almost unbearable

Before seeing Camp Slaughter I had only given one movie the worst grade ever, a 1 out of 10. After seeing this, I'm actually considering upgrading the other movie, because I'm not sure there is another movie that completely lacks every quality in the way Camp Slaughter does. A movie couldn't possible be more pointless and boring.

So terrible it's below the scale. Avoid at all costs.

This movie is the worst horror movie i've ever seen. Everything sucks; the actors, the plot, the lines, EVERYTHING!

By the way, this is a Swedish movie, with Swedish actors, but they all speak English, and it sounds terrible... their grammar isn't exactly 'perfect'. Another thing i have to mention is that you can clearly see a cameraman in a scene where they're driving a car. In the extra-material, they even speak with the cameraman that screwed up the scene.. hmm?

If you'r planning to see this movie, don't expect too much, just expect to laugh... a lot!, then everything's gonna be alright. ... but as a comedy, it definitely worth a peek ^^

Nobody likes a bad movie, but sometimes you come across one that is so extremely bad it actually becomes enjoyable. This is the case with Camp Slaughter.

Director Martin Munthe's idea of paying homage to his favorite slasher films (Friday the 13th) is by making one that is even worse. The so called effects were outdated even twenty years ago, and the story is a joke. However, you may not notice this since you are so busy laughing at the actors. Not only do they read their lines in the worst form of Swenglish, there's also an embarrassing lack of devotion and experience.

You just have to watch this.

The Swedish horror film "Camp Slaughter" from 2004 is one of few Europeen amateur horror films I have seen. The idea of the filmmakers was to make a tribute to 70s and 80s horror flicks like Friday the 13th. With a mixture of splatter, typical horror and somewhat failed humour it is obvious that the film is a amateur production, and of course the actors are not very good either. If you are fond of the German amateur splatter "Barricad (-Welcome to hell)" you will definitely like this one. Although I myself do not like splatter amateur films (Due to special effects, actors etc.) I do appreciate amateur tributes. Unfortunately, because of the use of humour in this movie, the watcher might get the feeling of a parody rather than a tribute This is definitely worth a view if you like 80s horror flicks, and especially if you do not mind a little bit bad acting.

This movie is quite possibly one of the worst to ever make it out of an editing room. It has nothing, lousy camera work (I think I found three shots that had some form of focus, no color correction anywhere... a complete mess), an even worse script and no acting whatsoever (and why, oh why did they do it in English?).

I can try to find anything positive about this movie... and still fail utterly. Not even as a joke would this work. I've seen the pre-release of another Swedish b-horror called "The Unknown". It was made with 1/10 the budget, but is way way superior to this one in all aspects.

To put this short: NO, do NOT see this movie. No matter what you expect, you WILL be disappointed.
