Bloody Summer Camp Film Review

 



Slasher fans the camp slasher movie is a sub-genre that's all but dead nowadays however it was really big in the nineteen eighties. Well there's one horror film that's just been released that aims to recapture the magic of that type of slasher film for better or for worse and so then join me as I review the film that is pretty much a love letter to camp setting slasher movie with the film in question being called simply just "Bloody Summer Camp" enjoy.

The plot of this film is a bunch of camp councillors are being stalked by a masked serial killer and have to put an end to this massacre before it's far to late. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film is really generic but at the same time that's also the point of the film tho in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Starring in this film is Dave Sheridan as Sheriff Wilmore and horror legend Felissa Rose as Michelle Crowell. Also starring in this film is Rita Christine as Victoria Parker , Cody Faulk as Todd , Samantha Fouse as Stacy , Michelle Goodwin as Ms. McGlynn , Jesse L. Green as Henry Brahts , Matthew Hammond as Donnie Brahts , Christian Jensen as Larry , Rick Jermain as Deputy Sidowra , Spartacus Jones as Cornelius , Bobby Langford as Bob Lahey , Kay Leahy as Tiffany , Brendan Lynch as Donnie , Michael McGlynn as Roger , Julie Anne Prescott as Nurse Korek , Chanda Rawlings as Kimberly and Gretchen Settle as Felicia.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really bad. Even for a low budget horror movie the acting that we get in this film is really bad and that's saying something in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.



This film is trying to be a ripoff of both the original Friday The 13th and Sleepaway Camp however it fails to recapture what made both of those films so memorable. Mainly having a memorable killer who actually has a motive and that is something that this film is very sorely lacking since this films killer isn't memorable and has no motive and so this ripoff comes of as being both cheap and lazy at the exact same time in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


If anything this film feels alot more like an homage to the summer camp set slasher films since this films has alot of the tropes that we'd see in those films. However instead of doing something new or even commentating on those tropes the film just does those tropes and that's it and that's not good enough because it's not doing something new or even interesting with those tropes in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

This film does try to tell a solid mystery however it fails to do the one good thing that all mysteries should do and that's give us clues. Which is a key thing for a mystery film to do as it allows us the audience to work out who the killer even is and by stripping us of clues then your robbing us of the chance to work out who the killer even is and that's not a good thing at all in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


To this films credit it is an entertaining film to watch since it does do a somewhat good job of telling a good story. However the reveal of the killer makes no sense even when the film goes into great detail of how this person committed these crimes it still makes no sense but I get the feeling that this film wasn't trying to make sense and was instead just trying to be a bogstanderd love letter to the slasher summer camp genre of the nineteen eighties in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly two hours and five minuets and thirty seconds. Which for a slasher film is such a long time and heck this film really doesn't need to be that long at all since you very easily could have had this film come in at well under one hour and thirty minuets and you'd have to lose nothing that's actually important to the actual plot of the film in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


So now then since this film is a slasher film that means that I have to actually talk about the actual kills that are actually featured / presented to us in this very film and well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual kills that are actually featured / presented to us in this very film are in all honesty not that bad at best. Since alot of this films kills take place of screen and the ones that we do get to see while uninspired do have some pretty cool makeup effects for this films low budget in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Overall this film is a fun ride if your a die hard of slasher movies that are being set at a summer camp since there's alot of tropes in there that you'll recognise but this is still a really bad film in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very film in this very review and well then that means that this very film erns itself a grand old score of exactly a 4 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from IMP Awards . Com and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get images from this film being Google Images simply because Google Images actually has images from this film up on Google Images and pus pretty much much all of the images that I personally found on Google Images were all fairly high quality and as well as being as fairly high definition and so then horror fans we ends this review as we always do with our one and true goddess Elvira wishing us all some very unpleasant dreams.
