i rented this from redbox, and was pretty disappointed in it. i'm a fan of all types of horror movies, but in my opinion, mr. vanbuskirk could have done a lot more to give it some kind of menacing atmosphere...it's like i spent most of the movie waiting for the movie to start, honestly. there were several side stories, none of which were brought to conclusion, or developed enough to be anything more then an addition to a confusing movie. camp hell had some potential, but seems like the director was so intent on trying to fit everything he wanted to do in one movie that he ended up with too much stuff, too little time. i would skip this. at first i thought it was a new genre, Christian horror...after reading an interview with him apparently this was not the case, but it still didn't turn out very well.
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...

The acting was okay. The story was interesting until it went absolutely nowhere. It was a road that should have stayed less traveled. The movie is suppose to be based on true events. But what the hell where those events. The story telling is so fragmented and ambiguous, and perhaps would have been better told in say 22 minutes ala Twilight Zone, but the plot is so stretched that the filler dilutes whatever message the movie makers wanted to make. I waited until the last minute to see if this movie would "save" itself, yet alas no. I only sacrificed 90 minutes of time to trite. Oh, and the music, the score, or whatever it was, was just awful. In fact, the music used during the opening credits should have tipped me off to the crap that lied ahead.
this is a movie where nothing happens seriously, you wait for something to happen but nope. its mostly a waste of time, do not rent this trust me it is very bad! there is one thing that happens, the movie ends. the only thing i liked about this movie was that how bad the camp was and how bad the priest was if you don't believe me give it a rent then you will!basically there is this kid that doesn't like Jesus or god so they send him to this camp where they try and help him believe then the kid starts having nightmares and and the priest there trying to help him is to religious and says these terrible things to him and doesn't want them to have any contact with the girls there. thats basically it.
This movie was not a horror movie. Jess Eisenberg was on the cover of this movie but had probably about a minute or two in the movie. If I see a picture of a famous actor on movie cover, I expect to see a whole lot more of him. The movie is not worth renting or buying. Don't waste your time renting it! Oh and to the gentlemen who said Lawsuit. This type of storyline has been done to death. Some kids going to some camp of some type and being chased, haunted or whatever by some madman, demon etcetera. Your Teaser trailers only show some guy running around in some fangs and blue make-up. Also, Even if you try to take them to court, You have no clue how long that script has been written and approved and copyrighted for a film format. Besides, They can use any storyline that they want as long as it doesn't follow the exact same format of a particular piece.

- TriviaThe DVD cover for the film advertised Jesse Eisenberg in a starring role, despite only having a 5 minute cameo. The cover features his name above the title and his face above a small camp. Eisenberg filed a lawsuit because of this.
