Motor Home Massacre

When you go into a film like "Motor Home Massacre", you expect to see either: 1) A surprisingly well crafted film that actually delivers some genuine suspense, even if it is low budget. (Extremely unlikely.) or 2) A movie that makes you burst out in peals of laughter at the sheer ridiculousness of it all.

What we have here is a case of the second option. Basically, the story concerns a group of kids who are portrayed in the crudest possible stereotypes that you'd expect in a "dead teenager" film. They go camping, and have a fateful encounter with a machete wielding maniac.

That's it, pretty much. The villain doesn't even use a chainsaw for the killings, which was odd, being that there's a bloody chainsaw on the cover of the DVD. One of those little things that makes you go "Hmmm..." The direction, atmosphere, and acting in this film ranks somewhere in between a softcore porn film you'd see on Cinemax at two in the morning, and a film class project made by high school students.

That's not to say that there wasn't anything about "Motor Home Massacre" that I didn't enjoy. One memorable part involving a gas station cashier and the soon-to-be machete meat had me in stitches. "What kind of troubles?" "DEAD PEOPLE TROUBLES." Whoever wrote the script for this film was a mad genius.

The plot of "Motor Home Massacre" is pretty simple:a group of seven young friends climb aboard a vintage RV headed for a fun-filled weekend in the woods called Black Creek Park until they encounter a night-vision goggled,machete-wielding psychopath.I must admit that I did laugh few times during the film.However the acting is horrid,the story itself is silly and routine and the gore effects are extremely weak.The characters are some of the dumbest in the horror genre history.Thankfully the last twenty minutes are a constant flood of plot twists and laughs.Unfortunately there are far too many scenes of the characters just sitting around and endlessly delivering stupid one-liners,so there's absolutely no suspense conjured up and sustained.The murder sequences are ineptly handled and there's not a single valid scare to be found anywhere.4 out of 10.

First off let me just say that this was the worst film i have ever seen in my life. It was purely an amateur film. Most of the actors are just awful stereotypes of stupid teens. I have never seen such terrible acting in my days. What is up with all of the nude scenes? I see this movie as light pornography. I have enjoyed all of the Lions gate films I have seen in the past, but the thought that Lions Gate could have produced a piece of garbage like this is just insane. I would like to know why the cover shows a man holding a chainsaw? There isn't a single chainsaw in the entire movie. Every video, every disk, EVERYTHING that has anything to do with this movie should be buried and forgotten. Don't even waste your time on this film.

This is why people think horror films are such a joke, this one proves it all. It's stupid characters, dumb bimbo women and stupid gore and a killer who right away is figured out. I swear this film had Lion's Gate behind it. I can't believe what is on the mind of some writers and directors. Could we once get back to what makes a horror film superb? Good character development, good story line, suspense, that too hard? I didn't have sympathy towards the victims, I cheered they were killed off. I can't believe some horror films direct to DVD or video. Take time writing out characters and brainstorm ideas. Even the old 80's were better than this one.

Wow this movie was probably one of the worst movies i've ever seen. It's really not hard to please me when it comes to movies because i like all kinds of movies. Horror and Dumb humor movies probably being my favorite.

I actually found this movie REALLY funny. I still thought it was terrible and i couldn't believe that blockbuster would actually rent out a movie THAT bad. The cover looked like it would be cool and i thought it sounded pretty good from the summary on the back. I laughed through the whole thing though. The ending was terrible and the facial expressions on their faces. I actually paused the TV on their faces making those stupid looks and took a picture. It was like they were trying really hard in the beginning of the movie and then just gave up at the end and decided to make it a comedy ending. (although their trying really isn't good at all)
