Zombie Campout Movie Review

Posted by:
I know, you were just thinking WTH, why is there no zombie campout in the zombie films section. Well worry not.. there is now! Four friends plan a weekend camping trip for fun in the sun and some potential romance at a nearby lake. But when radioactive meteorites crash into a nearby cemetery, all hell breaks loose!! Zombie Campout is a hilarious comedy, full of action, beautiful bikini girls, zombie smashing, make out scenes, and much more. This comedy horror will leave you in stitches!! Featuring a new improved never before seen director's cut of the film and loads of special features, including cast bios, trailers, set photos, and a special "At the Audition" excerpts form the Zombie Campout auditions. There are even four "Easter Eggs" for the true DVD connoisseur to find. Zombie Campout will turn your weekend form hell into a laugh out loud riot!!

Now this is another one like Zombie Lake that you either love or you absolutely hate and so I am once again putting two reviews, one positive one negative.

I hate to admit it, but sadly, I've seen this movie one to many times. I can't help it, it cracks me up every time I see it. By no means is it the best film ever made, in fact it's far from it. Cheesy acting, oddball story line, and very campy humor, yet it's a GREAT B-Movie. It doesn't have any "moral" or lesson to be learned, there's no deep back story, it's simply an entertaining comedy that does exactly what it was made to do, it makes you laugh, and some times, it makes you laugh really hard.

It starts off with a pretty decent pace. At times it slows down a bit and there are even moments when it seems nearly out of place. Though at times the pacing is a little slower than one would expect an action packed comedy/horror, it clearly makes up for it in the satirical comedy and in your face humor though out.

The first "effect," when zombies attack in the opening scene, doesn't really seem all that convincing. But by no means does it set the precedence for the film. Overall the effects are very impressive and at times surprisingly realistic.

Clearly a very low budget project, the acting is a little off, but this reviewer feels it really adds to the whole "B-Movie" experience. All in all, though the opening "effect" isn't exactly convincing the majority of them seem to go off with out a hitch and really make one glance away form the screen in disgust, only to look back and see something horrifically funny.

Though it's a hilarious campy B-Style Movie, Zombie Campout is not for everyone. Those who cannot appreciate the in your face style humor, those who faint at the site of blood, or folks who just don't know how to laugh, need to avoid this film. But I would highly recommend it to those who enjoy satirical humor as well as horror fans alike.

Zombie Campout, funny, somewhat stupid at times, and entertaining on a completely different level; it has all the makings of a cult classic and a little bit more.

And the negative one.

This isn't even bad good, it's bad atrocious. Everyone involved with this movie should go find a rock and crawl under it. Hang your head in shame!!

Hmm ok that last one was to subtle.. well ok sarcasm meter is now going wild. With that said I think this movie looks like some campy goodness and is well worth having a peak. Seen it? Like it? wanna review it? Drop us a line or post on the boards.
