Decampitated

Yay for Troma!! Yay for duct tape!! Possibly the funniest horror spoof in existence. A laugh every five seconds, and the gore rarely stops, once it starts. A fast-paced farce that makes Scary Movie look like Date Movie. This is Decampitated. Decampitated is about seven friends who don't seem to like, or even know each other very well, nonetheless, they decide to go camping together, although they know nothing about the activity. Seriously, these people know as much about camping as Hulk Hogan knows about wrestling. The leader of our group, Garrett, a hyper, long-haired, twig of a man, despite not being very bright, really knows how to take charge. Garrett's lazy friends reluctantly join him in his quest to rough it, and luckily, the car doesn't break down till they reach the wilderness. The happy campers decide to camp as planned then get the car fixed, but we soon discover, there's a killer in the woods, but luckily, there's seven campers, that's more than enough to fight off the killer, especially if they all stick together, right? To say. these people don't have each others backs, would be an understatement. When a horror-spoof, courtesy of Troma, comes off more like something from Nickelodeon, but still manages to kick ass, you know you've got a winner on your hands. Perhaps the flat-out best Troma movie on the planet, that wasn't directed by Lloyd Kaufman. Decampitated is gory, self-parodying, constantly entertaining, and, of course, hilarious. Also, you'll never realize how useful duct tape actually is until you see this movie. The cheesiness is magnificent. Troma struck gold with this one, and if you buy it, you'll see why. Yay for Decampitated!! 9/10

I would consider myself a pretty big horror movie buff. I love black comedy horror, gore films, teen slashers and whatever else you wish to throw at me. One day, my Troma loving brother-in-law got this new film in the mail - Decampitated. It looked like it may be scary, so I agreed to watch it with him. I was wrong. It was not scary, but at the same time, I found myself walking away from the film with a big smile on my face. I liked it, I actually liked it! Campy as hell, but the film was good. The clever uses of Duck Tape, the weed wacker and prancing killer, was a clever film that almost made you turn the machine off - it was so silly. A couple days later, I found myself asking my Bro if I can watch it again. I think I have seen it 10 times now (which is pretty good, let me tell you) and I will place it in the oh so hard to get into club of "Good Troma Movies" (Standing along the sides of Tromeo and Juliet and Terror Firmer) Good job guys!

The opening scene in Decampitated, features a young lady, running from our lovable madman, as she VERY slowly meets a gruesome, yet hilarious end, she sure had some bad luck. Few people really die in Decampitated, characters' loose limbs, and spill enough blood worthy of a Mel Gibson epic, yet do not die.If you enjoyed classic Troma films like Terror Firmer, Tromeo And Juliet, Tales From The Crapper, etc. You'll enjoy this. However if this is your first Troma experience, I guarantee nothing, Troma is an acquired taste. I love it personally, but you have to enjoy gross out humor, mixed with comedic gore, and wacky characters'. Weapons utilized in this movie include a weed whacker, and even a fishing pole. On a side note, Bethany Lavoo, looks like Charisma Carpenter's twin sister, the resemblance is uncanny. My only complaint, is that the movie runs a little to long, with extended scenes of nothing, that could have been edited down to make a more compact film.

Actor Thomas Martwick is by far the highlight of this particular piece, although the other performances are surprisingly good for this genre. Everyone in it is young and good-looking (again, Martwick is the standout) and the gore is campy and creative. You're not in any danger of actually being scared, but you can count on some genuine entertainment spiced with a generous helping of youthful (and charmingly inexperienced) enthusiasm.

This was so much fun to make! EVERYONE involved did a great job and the end result is a hilarious spoof! Don't expect to be scared, this is not a typical horror film, but there is plenty of blood and effects to enjoy. The humor is tongue in cheek, and not everyone will "get" some of the jokes. The only way to watch this is with an open mind, and you just want to be entertained. Check out Fast Food Films on the FX Channel for their 10 minute version, you can look up the details on their website as far as the scheduled airdates. I just hope you like it.
