Trailer Park of Terror Trailers

Six troubled high school students and their chaperon, an optimistic youth ministries Pastor, return from an outdoor character building retreat in the mountains. During a raging storm, their bus crashes, hopelessly stranding them in the middle of the Trucker's Triangle, a forgotten locus of consummate evil in the middle of nowhere.

If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

The movie opens with Paula, a young girl getting ready for a date. Along the way to meet him, she comes across several of her neighbors, who refer to her as the town whore (a job she inherited from her mother). Tragedy strikes, and Norma takes her revenge - killing everyone.Several years pass, and a group of stereotypical misfits on a 'fix-em-up' religious retreat end up in her ghoul-filled trailer park.Yep, the pastor who fornicates, the klepto, druggie, goth chick, and the *gasp* homosexual are part of a group that seek refuge in the trailer park after they have an accident on the road.They're welcomed by Paula, queen of this trash pit. Things quickly spiral as Paula and her hillbilly friends start murdering everyone. Oh, and let's have one of the 'townsfolk' perform a random song mid-movie. Sure, why not.Can we guess who will be the last standing? Yep - within the first 15 minutes. (To be fair, one of my guesses was killed).There are some fun moments, and overall the acting is good.The movie is definitely watchable. However, it could have been shorter and more effective. Plus, the overt stereotypes lump it within typical fare. Could have been better, but, then again - it could've been MUCH worse

Wow! This movie totally took me by surprise. Initially I bought it because it is a zombie movie, but I had not imagined that the movie would be this cool. If you liked "Shaun of the Dead", then you definitely want to check out "Trailer Park of Terror".The story is pretty straight forward, and as you would expect of any horror movie; something sinister happened in the past, then many years pass by and a bunch of teenagers find themselves in the location of the grizzly deed that happened many years in the past. And then it all takes a turn for the worse. Enter the hillbilly zombies! "Trailer Park of Terror" combines three great things into one great movie; humor, gore and really amazing zombie make-up. I was in awe at the effects of this movie, and it was really obvious that Drac Studios are really knowing what they are doing. Hats off to them for the amazing effects they have pulled off on the zombies in this movie. That make-up and special effects alone make it worth sitting down and watching the movie.And the music score/soundtrack for this movie was really great as well. Very well picked music that worked well for every scene. And the song that the zombie was singing when he was on top of the trailer, that was just phenomenal. It was so well placed for the movie and the timing of the story.The cast they put together for this movie was nice as well, though I didn't really recognize anyone here. But that doesn't matter, because they did great jobs, and it is refreshing to see new faces in movies every now and then. And I must say that it was really the zombies that carried the movie, because they had so much personality, and they were hilarious. (Plus their make-up really helped them well along the way.)"Trailer Park of Terror" is really a gem much like "Shaun of the Dead" in the zombie genre. There is a lot of humor in this movie, so don't except to see a Romero style zombie movie here.I am a huge fan of zombie movies, and once in awhile I stumble upon a zombie movie that perfectly incorporates comedy into an otherwise gore-stained and serious genre. "Trailer Park of Terror" is a definite MUST watch for all zombie fans.

"Trailer Park of Terror" starts with young Norma about to finally leave her trailer park for good.When her fiancée is murdered by rednecks she makes a deal with long-haired Grim Reaper,so she can exterminate all of her tormentors.Unfortunately Norma and her victims are now cursed to be undead,coming back every night to kill any unfortunate victims that wander in after dark.The victims include a group of troubled teens heading to religious camp.Norma herself is the leader of the pack and is just as vicious as her old trailer park foes."Trailer Park of Terror" offers some gruesome scenes of torture and cannibalism accompanied by the singing of Roach from on top of his trailer.Zombified redneck plays his electric guitar with style.The soundtrack of the film is fantastic and the script makes fun of trailer parks,southerners and fat people.The set design is great:the trailers look gloomy and disgusting.7 out of 10.

I thought this was an excellent film. I It was well cast, well shot and well written. It isn't a scary movie, I think the classification "Horror" isn't exactly suiting. It has the gore required, however it comes off too funny to be a true horror. It seems more like a comedy action flick, with some horror elements. Thats not to say its a bad movie, its highly entertaining.The trailer park zombies are very entertaining, and capture the redneck stereotype perfectly. Duct tape truly does fix everything. The only beef I had with the movie was the anti-climatic ending. It was going so well, with the demolition derby, and the southern rock complimenting the scene just right, but then they slapped together the very end, and it leaves the viewer sitting on the edge of the seat thinking, "Thats it?" Otherwise, a great, entertaining movie, worth a purchase, or at least a rental.
