Bloody Summer Camp

Bloody Summer Camp (2021) is currently available on Tubi. Set in the 1980s, the story takes place at a summer camp with a tragic past. When a serial killer emerges, the question arises: is it tied to the camp's history or the work of a copycat?

Written and directed by David Kerr (Go Away), the film stars Felissa Rose (Sleepaway Camp), Kay Leahy (Blood and Breakfast), Chanda Rawlings (Crust), and Dave Sheridan (Scary Movie).

This is a low-budget movie that undeniably feels like it. Felissa Rose as a camp counselor adds some charm, and Dave Sheridan's cameo is enjoyable. However, the costumes and kills are underwhelming, though I'll admit I was pleasantly surprised by the inclusion of nudity and the drug dealer's cars. Beyond that, there are few redeeming qualities.

In conclusion, Bloody Summer Camp is a poorly executed low-budget horror film worth watching only for a few fun performances. I'd rate it 4/10 and recommend skipping it.

This was a fun indie horror camp slasher. Acting was good and had some good laugh out loud moments. Definitely felt they did a good job bringing back that 80's nostalgia. Dave Sheridan was hysterical. Had a good twist. Definitely not going to win any awards but I don't think that's what they were going for. If you like indie horror films set a camp. I definitely think it's worth a watch. Run time was a little long but it doesn't feel like it takes forever to get the story going either.

Was suggested it today and It took me a long time to finish. The movie paid a lot of homage to classic camp slashers like Friday the thirteenth and Sleepaway camp but the execution as poor. Camera work was not bad and a couple of the death scenes were shot really well to make up for the lack of budget to pull a large scale death off but thats really where it ends. Not a single character is likable and you really dont have any connection to them at all. For someones first movie I do see a lot of promise but I think more direction needs to be given to the actors. Everything felt forced and not even remotely organic. Given a a more experienced cast I would watch the directors work again.

It is a fun Mashup of 80s slasher loveletter and goofy satire of the genre. It wears its worship of the golden age of slashers on its sleeve while not being afraid to poke fun at the trappings of the genre. True horror geeks, like myself, will love the tons of slasher movie Easter eggs. Everyone involved seems like they had a blast. It doesn't take itself seriously and neither should you. Grab some beers and strap yourself in.

I rounded it up to a four, cause it's probably a 3.5 in my opinion. Which is low for a slasher for me. It's low budget and what you'd expect for this type of movie. Obviously someone on the crew got a new drone for Christmas! I did laugh at the Cop interrogation scene for some dumb reason, lots of 80s references for old dudes like me. But why on earth was this over 2 hours? Why? Was this directed by Kevin Costner? Someone should cut this down to about 80 minutes and it would have been way better! So much unnecessary filler! A few too many throwbacks / references to Sleepaway Camp but I guess with the star of that in this that makes sense to me. For Camp Slasher fans only!
