Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.
Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
tommywilley47 I'm only scoring it as high as i am cause it did have a lot of gore in it which was a plus for me. everything else was absolutely lame. i felt like i was watching an episode of jerry springer in hell. i felt like i was dumber than i already am for watching this and i will do whatever i can to not see it again anytime soon. the gore was cool but the rest was absolute garbage. id rather stare at the microwave or pass a kidney stone.i guess the psycho billy music was kind of cool. i do like some psycho billy from time to time. i am just not into the whole white trash, hooker stuff. the old dumpy fat woman who wanted meat all the time was a little amusing. i say if you are really desperate give this movie a go but don't say i didn't warn you.
oneguyrambling Plot: After a pointless first ten minutes that made no sense we move to the same old plot we always get; ie a bunch of young people are stranded outside a trailer park where they seek shelter, and in a night of unimaginable horror one by one they find that not all is as it seems.Dun-Dun-DUNNNNNNNNN!!!! Budget: Even more inexplicable, this looks shiny and new. You can actually see that they have spent money polishing this turd.What was so horribly wrong then Smart-Guy? Aside from the generic clichéd plot. The lack of laughs. The general inanity of proceedings. The fact that I swear the lead chick was Jamie Pressley from My Name Is Earl and I still refuse to believe it wasn't even though the DVD cover and IMDb beg to differ.Nothing, this was just greeeeeaaaaaaattttttttt.Final Rating – 4.5 / 10. Bad paint by numbers exercise, bet Jamie Pressley is happy she wasn't in it.If you liked this review (or even if you didn't) check out oneguyrambling.com
Coventry "Trailer Park of Terror" is another new movie to cash in on the contemporary immensely popular trend of 70's horror revival. These movies intend to re-create the Grindhouse atmosphere through a combination of raw atmosphere, hillbilly characters and extreme nihilistic violence. What better setting to combine all these elements than a trailer park full of Southern yokels, director Steven Goldmann ingeniously must have thought, and he looked for inspiration in the repertoire of Imperium Comics publishing. For the most part, he succeeded. "Trailer Park of Terror" is a repellent and occasionally quite provocative trash-movie with all the clichés and stereotypes you expect (and hope) to find in this sort of film. It's a kind of tawdry fairy-tale, but one with sleazy protagonists and loads of foul language. One part of the film actually illustrates the life and suffering within a trailer park located somewhere either in Tennessee, Georgia or Northern Alabama (the plot is never clear on that) and the other part takes place nearly 30 years later, in present day, when a bus full of juvenile delinquents and their chaperon get stranded in the area and have to spend the night there. For you see, the trailer park grounds have been cursed ever since Norma, a feisty white trash babe, accepted the gun of a long-haired stranger and annihilated the entire park because they killed her rich lover boy and thus ruined her chances of ever getting out of there. Now, Norma and the rest of the rednecks live on as zombies and feast their Southern lusts on the innocent passerby. Norma herself likes to chop off heads whilst having sex, heavyweight lady Larlene is always on the lookout for "fresh meat", Miss China gives very deadly massages, Stank has a recipe for human jerky and rocking zombie Roach has explosives planted all over the park. The sequences that are actually taking place in the trailer park are the undeniable highlights of the film. It barely takes two extended scenes to show all the typical clichés linked to this particular social habitat, like prostitution, domestic disturbance and plundering. The plot with the teenagers trying to survive is more familiar and derivative, but still there are some inventive murders and quite a lot of engrossing special effects. Most of film takes place during night time, so you'll often find yourself staring at a black screen and the editing is quite rough. The soundtrack is pretty cool, with a combination of country music and hard rock, and the cast is appealing.
nedzter Now i do realize this film does follow the same old slasher flick premise where a group of teenagers(including the cliché characters e.g. the cool chick, horny boys and a goth)are pitted against all odds to survive the sadistic events of a situation they don't understand. But this film knows it and has fun it with. I could explain the plot but you've heard it all before, what i can tell you is the cinematography is excellent, the make up is fantastic, the special effects are well done and the acting is solid. I forgot to mention the script, it doesn't take itself seriously, good. Thats the point of the film, have a good time and watch some blood fly. You don't need a big budget to make an entertaining film. Just a big heart.
