Nonureva Really Surprised!

Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

Raymond Sierra The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

poj-79742 This movie surprises from the very beginning. It holds you in suspense for the most part. The whole story is quite logical and consistent. Good and very good actors' performance. I will be happy to watch it again after some time.

jtindahouse The horror genre is getting to the point where if a film isn't completely terrible, it's almost considered a good film. A sad but true fact. 'Summer Camp' falls almost exactly into that scenario. It certainly isn't a good horror movie in any way, yet because it is adequately made and isn't totally uwatchable you find yourself asking yourself, "was that good?" The film is trying to be a 'Cabin Fever' of sorts (a very fine horror movie), but it fails in all the areas that made 'Cabin Fever' so good. Firstly, the characters in that film were brilliant. They were realistic, yet endlessly likable. In 'Summer Camp' the characters are about as thin a wafer and as unlikeable as they ever come. No genuine time is spent trying to boost them and give them some dimensions. The director simply wants to get the blood and guts underway.Secondly, there's no creativity put into any of the horror. Not once did I even come close to getting a shock or a fright and all that was left was boring zombie-like nonsense that has been seen a thousand times over. All this makes it seem like this was a much worse film than it really was. The truth is it's probably better than 65% of horror films out there. However that says more about the state of the genre than anything else.

a_baron A small group of American teens or near teens stuck in the woods threatened by monsters or things that go bump in the night. Where have we seen this before? Twelve hours later, when you have completed your list...this one is not about monsters or zombies, although the zombie connection is not that dissimilar. The group have flown to Spain where they are to teach young kids English at a summer camp miles from the nearest town, only the kids haven't arrived yet, so they are currently amusing themselves. No, not like that, shame on you for even thinking it; there is no sex at all in this film, and not much else bar people running around in the dark screaming. One of our heroes is bitten by a rabid dog, and goes crazy. Or was it really the dog? We are given the answer near the end of the film, the dog bite was actually a coincidence. What has really been happening is somebody has been mixing mushrooms with water, as you would do. This has led to an outbreak of stachybotrys, better known as black mould, something that is actually mentioned in the "Bible". In the real world this condition can cause a wide variety of medical problems, especially in the young. Fortunately the effects are temporary, in this film at any rate, which begs the question how many of them will survive till the end? Unfortunately, to find that out, you too will have to survive to the end, which is barely an even money proposition.

livid-88704 They should change the name of this movie to Screaming and Grunting in the Dark because that's literally all there is. I hated this movie. The description is mid leading as it says it is about counselors battling plagued children. There are no children in the movie until the last three minutes. The movie is super dark making it hard to see any of the little action. The acting is sub par and there is hardly any character development, making it impossible to care about any of the characters. The entire movie is them running around screaming from one infected after another. All the infected do is scream and grunt with a little black goo coming out of their mouths (think 28 Days Later only not as good).The one good thing I will say about this movie is the "action" starts fairly quick. If you are looking for a good slasher or zombie/infected flick, this is neither.
