... View MorePreparing for a camping trip, an all-girl group of friends heads into the Florida Everglades for a special tour of the area only to run afoul of a vengeful Native American spirit intent on making them pay for trespassing on his land and must fend off the crazed attacks to escape alive.This was a rather decent enough slasher. One of the few positives here is the rather joyful glee that accompanies the majority of the attacks here, which is pretty common throughout the film. Setting up the idea of the crazed Indian who offers up plenty of confrontations with the group allows this one to partake in some rather fun encounters with him out in the swamplands attacking and hacking up the girls in brutal ways. The gore in these scenes are quite brutal in concept yet lamely realized in execution, yet the manic intensity and over-the-top glee with these scenes are infectious enough to make this interesting, as well as allowing this one to maintain a fine pace to be entertaining enough to keep going. Along with the fine nudity on display, these are what hold it up over the film's flaws. Among the many negatives here is the rather low-budget nature of what's presented here. There's very little here that looks natural or realistic, from the laughable gore and stalking scenes that waste the opportunity to have some suspense in the Indian's sudden attacks to the completely illegal way it appears they just filmed the whole film in one location. It's all quite obvious that this was filmed in such a manner which causes this to look completely patently fake and gives this such a cheesy atmosphere with the near impossible manner to have the events here come off as reasonable or logical. As well, the other flaw here is the rather comical and over-the-top killer who's so impossible to take seriously that it might borderline on dull rather than frightening. Not only is the rampage completely underdeveloped with stories changing depending on who's talking about the killer, but the way it manages to warp around the killing methods seem just too outlandish for the type of film conceived which allows this to become excruciating more than anything. Not only does it have a completely comical look but an irritating killer which isn't the best way to make a slasher effort and is what really keeps this one down.Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Language, Graphic Violence and Nudity.
... View More****THIS REVIEW DOES CONTAIN SPOILERS****When I saw the estimated $50,000,000 budget for this film I thought it was a type o. You mean $500 right?Let's start with the plot. A group of scantly glad dressed ladies go out into the Everglades for a girl only camp out. Without them knowing, the swamp where they are staying is inhabited by and axe wielding, Seminole warrior spirit named Coowahchobee played by Ted Vernon who has the hairiest arms, back, chest and belly I've ever seen. A word of advice to the makers of this garbage. It's not very realistic to use an over weight, hairy white guy to play a Native American. I'm not even Native American, and I was both offended and insulted! Then again, no self-respecting Native American would want to be in horrible film like this. It suppose to be horror film not horrible.The acting in this movie is very bad. Not even passable by B movie standards. The character of Ron who warns these unsuspecting ladies of the danger and Coowahchobee couldn't act his way out of wet paper bag. The makers probably picked him up at the local bar and asked him if he'd like to be in a movie.In all honesty I couldn't finish watching this movie. It took very bad and dragged it down further.It's up to you, but you may want to steer clear of this mess.
... View MoreIntent upon discovering the great outdoors, a group of women decide to take a tour into the Everglades and camp out for a couple of days. However, when they get there a man named "Ron" (Ron Henry) warns them that it isn't safe to stay there because there is an evil Seminole spirit known as "Coowahchohee" (Ted Vernon) who comes out during this particular time of the year and either kills or kidnaps any young females that he can find. Not caring to hear anything that Ron tells them they chase him off and decide to stay. Then, one by one, they begin to vanish. Now rather than reveal any more of this movie and risk spoiling it for those who haven't seen it I will just say that this is basically a horror film which suffers from its extremely low budget. Of course, being produced by Troma and with a title like "Bikini Swamp Girl Massacre" I suppose one shouldn't expect too much to begin with. Yet, although the acting, special effects and the accompanying script were quite bad, the plot moved along at an adequate enough pace to at least keep my attention to a certain degree. However, other than the presence of "Tonya" (Jenny Scordamaglia) I honestly didn't see anything worthwhile about this movie and I have rated it accordingly. Below average.
