    Watching it is just as much fun as making it!

    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.

    As good as a non-Kaufman Troma could possibly be

    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 love this movie and I love Troma...

    These last months I got to see a couple of Troma films, apart from Toxie 1, which I had seen in 2002. Some of the definite classics (Troma wars, Class of nuke'em high) and some of the so-called 'worst' (Nymphoid barbarian from dinosaur hell, Surf Nazis must die) are some of them. I don't consider myself a Troma completist or expert yet, but I love them already.

    OK, we see Troma had minor or no involvement in this one. I am nevertheless thankful to them for financing that. Me being both a serious-film fan but also b-movie/splatter/weird/extreme enthousiast, Troma stuff has to be one of the most original and ahead of it's time entertainment flicks, often not without some political incorrect meanings & provocations. This small independent film is everything a low-budget-in-the-woods-slasher-spoof/evil-dead-clone would ever want to be! Words fail to describe the genuine feeling of pure fun this film can offer to the open minded! I dare to say that this is a step (or two) above the usual Troma comedy standard, for it's amazing pace, sense of humour and its fair acting. Splatter scenes are mediocre but imaginative and funny - and there're a lot of them! I am so glad to see a post from the leading actor. Sure you don't expect "rock-star" attitude from people working on such a film, but it's always nice to see the "artist" break the barriers of the medium and the film industry ethics by coming closer to the audience.

    Enjoyable, Goofy, Fun, From Troma

    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.

    This movie should be called: Good Uses For Duct Tape!

    Wow I loved this movie. Found it to be funny. Much better than slasher comedies like Scary Movie, and all that crap. This is great! We got the stupidest campers in the world in this film...The "kills" in this movie are really funny, film also has some blood. NO NUDITY though. I know this is Troma, and I know the DVD cover...don't be tempted it includes NO NUDITY. I REPEAT NO NUDITY. FIne with me, I love the movie anyway! These guys did an ingenious job on this film, I cant wait for their next movie. These guys did good directing for this movie, I am sure the budget was low but this is as good as any 60 million dollar budgeted film, believe me. So get this today...you won't be disappointed!
