Highly Overrated But Still Good

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

Seriously, when it comes to horror movies 9 times out of 10 when a movie is rated low I can see why, but with this one I honestly can't.I guess maybe people expected something else, I know I did, I thought it was gonna be your typical run of the mill slasher and I had reservations to watching it due to the incredibly low rating.Currently rated 3.5/10 which is a ridiculous rating considering the overall good performances and (for me at least) interesting plot that are a lot more character driven than most horrors, which in all honestly is all about the bodycount and the kills.This one is not about that at all, and perhaps it's more of a psychological drama than it is horror but that still doesn't validate the low rating IMO.TBH a lot of the bad reviews don't seem to have watched this movie with claims that this is a pro-Christian fundamentalist movie, sure there's a lot of talk about Jesus and sins etc (hello this movie takes place at a Christian camp!) but it's not painting a flattering picture of the cult- like Christians of the camp at all and how the movie transforms in the end I really don't see how anyone can make that claim... Unless they turned it off half-way through or something...Anyway, I decided to watch it mainly for Jesse Eisenberg. He however is not in it all that much, 2 scenes basically but cut up to multiple segments throughout the movie. But that didn't really bother me because the rest of the cast were fine.It's a little cheesy at times maybe I suppose but it entertained me fine and it also had you wondering how it was gonna end which with horrors 9 times out of 10 you already know from the gate so that's definitely a plus, not a masterpiece by any means but definitely better than expected for sure.

Okay real quick the movie as a whole is kind of a dog with the stereotypical 'Christians are crazy' theme. Much of the front end of the movie is spent making these people look as stupid and crazy as possible. However there is a portion of the movie when the 'demons' show up that stands out enough that I attempted to make contact (unsuccessfully) with George VanBuskirk to see where this notion came from. A low budget and weak acting round things out, pretty standard fare for movies of this type, but nowhere near the worst selection on the shelf. If you have ever had what you consider a demonic encounter you may wish to subject yourself to a viewing for that one scene.

I just saw this film and it blew me away. For some people, this film will be a disappointment. Why? Because people are expecting a conventional horror flick. They see "religion" and "demon" and think: "Oh, exorcism movie, not again." This film takes the religion theme to a whole new level.It's basically a social commentary on the dangers of how some people interpret religion. Religion itself has nothing wrong with it, it's how people interpret it that makes it such a touchy subject. The concept of "Saint vs. Sinner" is executed beautifully and it will make you think long after the credits have rolled. If it doesn't, then maybe films like this one simply aren't for you.I've seen many people on here talking about how this is not a horror. This is not true, but not false either. Horror is subjective. Some see blood-and-gore flicks as horror, some say horror is something psychological. Is this a horror film to me? Absolutely. Jump scares, dramatic music and tension doesn't equal horror in my book. That's evoking a natural human reaction known as shock. Jump scares aren't a valid horror device because it doesn't evoke fear. Fear is being afraid of what is to come, not screaming with your heart going 300 BPM because someone just jumped out of a closet to really loud musical effects.Camp Hell is a very interesting and beautifully executed psychological horror film that pushes the boundaries of what people perceive as horror. If this doesn't apply to you, you're watching the wrong genre of films. Harsh? No, simply an opinion. The horror community needs more films like this.

I have never seen such a travesty of horrible Christian hate clichés in ten movies put together, much less put all into one movie... Did this prejudice as hell director have a wild hair up his butt or was he given a propaganda type agenda to make it look like Christians were like white supremacist type psychotic Nazis? Like these morons that raised their poor kids by imposing totally regimented Catholic NOT EVEN REMOTELY BIBLICAL self propagated concentration camp antics brainwashing their kids to their own agendas. Makes Christians basically look like a Jim Jones poison kool-aid cult followers.Wow talk about reversal in roles..30 years ago they ostracized Christians hating Gays now it's like like the other way around totally... It's like you used to not admit you were Gay back then now you are afraid to admit you are Christian.... Scary movie indeed.... the evil spirits here were the movie producers for sure. Literally a nauseating movie much akin to when Mad Magazine makes horrid fun of first run movies. "Aaack!!" as Bill the Cat would say...GT
