CommentsXp Best movie ever!

AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

jdollak I love camp movies. I love horror movies. I love time-travel movies. I love 80s movies. In a certain way, I love low-budget movies. But I don't love this movie. In fact, I had a hard time sitting through it. First, it looks like it's shot on video. But the coloring is a little too vibrant for that, so it's probably shot digitally. There are occasionally shots that use some very cheap effects, usually just slowing down a shot slightly, and creating a choppy looking blur. Second, the script is packed with writing that is alternately awkward and annoying. Characters are drawn in a way that makes us unable to care about their predicament. In fact, because of how bothersome the characters are, we feel mildly cheated by the ending. Third, the plot is a clever enough idea. But the execution is so poorly handled that the viewer has an internal tension. In between passages of being bored and annoyed with the acting and the script, I would recognize that there was actually a decent idea buried under all of the nonsense that the movie uses.There's a long sequence about halfway through the movie, which only serves to provide some more on-screen death and gore. That's fine, except that the sequence doesn't seem to be tied into the plot at all. In fact, it seems to be pulling the plot in a direction that never happens.There are some homosexual undertones to the movie. And that would be fine, except that they never resolve. They exist for the sake of existing. To make this clear - if they had included heterosexual romantic undertones to the movie at all, and never created a payoff for that, I'd be bothered by that just as much. In the context of this movie, I have a suspicion that these were included since they thought they would be funny.The plot twists a bit in the second half, and it turns into a different type of movie. This doesn't help it. I made me feel a bit more helpless to stand against the tide of nonsense that the movie pushes. The plot developments suggest obvious questions, but those problems are ignored.Substantial spoiler-If they've lived through this loop for years upon years, wouldn't the killers get bored? They all seem to be aware, but it seems difficult to maintain the motivation. And the victims are aware that they'll be killed, but they never seem to learn to get out of it. If they had no knowledge of the loop, it might make sense.There are attempts at humor sprinkled through the movie, but none of the jokes are worth the breath used to speak them. They drag the movie down, and make watching this a chore.I can't watch this movie again. And I'd suggest you don't either.I've given this movie two stars because I could understand what most of the shots were. The sound was poorly mixed, but intelligible. And there was some reasonably classy music.Avoid it.

UltimaGabe I did, and a good time was had by all.First off, let me say that this movie is garbage. It just is. Now that that's out of the way, it DOES have some good points, but for the most part, it's garbage.The main garbage point is the story. It had amazing potential- but was extremely poorly executed. Did any of you ever see that episode of the Aladdin cartoon where they got caught up in this weird magical time loop? If so, you've seen how GOOD this movie's plot could have been. If not, you've only seen how BAD this movie's plot could have been.This movie is about some people who stumble upon a camp caught in a 24-hour time loop in which people get killed, every day, by an unseen killer (or killers). This is a great plot- except THE KILLERS AND SOME OF THE VICTIMS KNOW ABOUT THE LOOP. The ONLY way that this plot would have been even remotely sensical is if everyone involved has no knowledge of it whatsoever. If you committed a bunch of murders, and then got killed yourself, and then found out that your exploits caused you and those around you to loop over and over repeatedly, would you keep doing it? And, if so, would you keep falling for the same traps over and over? The killers, however, don't seem to care. They're perfectly content with killing the same people, every day, over and over, and then getting killed themselves (without, you know, stopping their own deaths), without any regard for what's going on.The audio is terrible, the acting is terrible, the camera-work is terrible, and the story is absolutely terrible. The blatant homo-eroticism is the only thing driving this movie.

Alex Thompson (MysteryMovieMan) OK, Me and some friends decided to get some movies one night. I went off to get a movie and let them decide on what to get. When they showed me the movie and I read the back, I knew we should have put it down and walked away. It was a great idea for a movie, but if it was done badly, it would have been terrible. The reason I told this fun little story was because the drive to the Hollywood Movies down the road was scarier than this movie. Let me elaborate.From the beginning to end this movie reeks of its "C" rate quality. Poor camera angles, bad acting, and the way-too-often use of the close-up shot make it hard to watch to begin with. Then, the killings make it even harder to watch, at least without laughing. In one instance, A couple is "smoking" and begin to make out. The man hears a noise and looks to see what is was. While he turns you hear a very vivid "wosh" of an arrow. He turns back and begins to make out with his very dead girlfriend while she is covered in blood and has an arrow in her neck. It takes him about 40-50 seconds to figure out that she is indeed dead. Then, instead of yelling, he runs away from the camp, into the middle of the woods, then yells. I understand its a movie, but the amount of unbelievability of it was just too much.The only reason I don't give this movie a 1 is because I found it to be funny as hell, but for all the wrong reasons. Film teachers should use this move to describe all the things not to do when making a movie.

shaun fogerty In watching camp daze aka: camp slaughter, I noticed the usual pitfalls of renting a direct to video horror flick. poor video quality, bad sound and corny acting by some of the actors. However In some twisted way it almost helps out this film. The story is supposed to be an homage to slasher films of the 80's. Crappy camera work and cheesy acting ran rampant in those films so even tho I'm sure its not what the director was intending The crappy film quality sets the mood of a vintage horror film even more. I'll admit the the storyline and action are a bit hodge-podge and certain parts don't seem to flow well but all in all I enjoyed this stupid little film. The 80's outfits and old camp cabins really worked well in my opinion and certain death scenes are pretty cool. This movie wont scare anyone over the age of 4 but than again If your watching direct to video horror flicks your probably not scared of horror films anymore and are just a fan of scary movies. However One of the neatest things about this movie are the extras. Some of the behind the scenes extras are hilarious. So at any rate If you want to see one of the more enjoyable direct to video horror films than I'd say rent it. But If you actually want a movie with an involving storyline and real scares stay away. For fans who appreciate 80's slashers only.
