Bloody awful, I say that. My first impression after watching the first few minutes after the prelude was.. "Dude, this movie must be for all those people who talk like this.. or people who hate people who talk like this, cause I already know at least three of em' are gonna die." Was I right or was I right? Although I was having a few hopes that they'd all just die. Anyway, it was an easily commentable film, and an easily predicable film.. or home movie. As others have said, and I agree.. Drinking game. There were some pretty god awful plot points in this film as well, plus, the whole.. Rehersial was pointless. I suppose the point of this random gore-fest was just for the sake of adding random gorefests? Anyway, following this, the whole killing starts and we start the time warp, in which when I realized they went back in time I'm laughing and singing "time warp" from rocky horror... Another small problem. What's the motive? Are they just all psychotic, the two councilors that start all the killing and persuade the other two into doing it with them... There wasn't much explanation...

No, but seriously, this was one of those movies that was so bad that I loved it. The horrible script, the bad acting, the camera work of five year olds, and a music score that was actually good, all combined to form a movie that was so bad that it was actually good. It's one of those horror movies that actual belongs in the comedy section. Then there was the blood. All of the death scenes, and fight scenes, etc. were done so badly that you could not help but laugh. Not to mention execution of most of the lines. I mean, seriously, to fully understand the hilarity of this movie, you need to go see it. I highly recommend it.

This was definitely a low budget flick and it showed. There was definite problems with the audio track and in a special feature about the special effects you could see how simplistic the effects actually were. I liked the plot but the script and the acting could have been better. some of the campers were kinda cheesy and there was more profanity than I care for. I would like to point out one mistake they made with one time related reference. The visitors to the camp kept referring to Jason from Friday the 13th but the campers didn't know who Jason was. They should have, Though. Friday the 13th came out in 1980 and the campers were stuck in August 1981. Despite how my comments may sound I enjoyed the film and its problems were nothing that a larger budget wouldn't of fixed.

I love camp movies. I love horror movies. I love time-travel movies. I love 80s movies. In a certain way, I love low-budget movies. But I don't love this movie. In fact, I had a hard time sitting through it. First, it looks like it's shot on video. But the coloring is a little too vibrant for that, so it's probably shot digitally. There are occasionally shots that use some very cheap effects, usually just slowing down a shot slightly, and creating a choppy looking blur. Second, the script is packed with writing that is alternately awkward and annoying. Characters are drawn in a way that makes us unable to care about their predicament. In fact, because of how bothersome the characters are, we feel mildly cheated by the ending. Third, the plot is a clever enough idea. But the execution is so poorly handled that the viewer has an internal tension. In between passages of being bored and annoyed with the acting and the script, I would recognize that there was actually a decent idea buried under all of the nonsense that the movie uses. There's a long sequence about halfway through the movie, which only serves to provide some more on-screen death and gore. That's fine, except that the sequence doesn't seem to be tied into the plot at all. In fact, it seems to be pulling the plot in a direction that never happens. There are some homosexual undertones to the movie. And that would be fine, except that they never resolve. They exist for the sake of existing. To make this clear - if they had included heterosexual romantic undertones to the movie at all, and never created a payoff for that, I'd be bothered by that just as much. In the context of this movie, I have a suspicion that these were included since they thought they would be funny. The plot twists a bit in the second half, and it turns into a different type of movie. This doesn't help it. I made me feel a bit more helpless to stand against the tide of nonsense that the movie pushes. The plot developments suggest obvious questions, but those problems are ignored. Substantial spoiler- If they've lived through this loop for years upon years, wouldn't the killers get bored? They all seem to be aware, but it seems difficult to maintain the motivation. And the victims are aware that they'll be killed, but they never seem to learn to get out of it. If they had no knowledge of the loop, it might make sense. There are attempts at humor sprinkled through the movie, but none of the jokes are worth the breath used to speak them. They drag the movie down, and make watching this a chore. I can't watch this movie again. And I'd suggest you don't either. I've given this movie two stars because I could understand what most of the shots were. The sound was poorly mixed, but intelligible. And there was some reasonably classy music. Avoid it.

What a piece of garbage this 'movie' is...what makes it worse is that it actually tries to pass itself off as an actual 'movie'...this is not a movie...this is a pathetically made camcorder homage to the movie Friday the 13th.....it's so bad that i was actually embarrassed to be watching it...thank god i was alone...it has millions of deaths...yet nearly each one is just the actor holding an arrow into themselves...or fake syrup type blood that drips just like syrup does....it's an absolute insult that this camcorder rubbish sits alongside actual movies in the DVD store....the 'actors' are horrendously bad....and i mean BAD.....doubt anyone of them will ever reach near z-list status....plus, lots of very bad male actors who rely on taking their tops off to elevate their screen presence....which fails miserably.....it's hard to believe that in this century trash like this is put before us and they expect us to enjoy it, or even respect it as a movie.....NEVER. This truly is a useless piece of camcorder crap that deserves to be forgotten before more people are fooled into watching it....you have been warned!!!!

I will say that unlike most comments, I liked the look of this movie. The time warp thing should have been used more. After it was introduced, they never really done anything else with it.The gore was pretty lame. Every kill was almost the same. Maybe a little cherry pie filling coming out of the mouth. The score was pretty nice. The composer did a great job with the 80's themed music and the use of strings, which really captured the sound of the 80's slasher. I agree with the other comments with the over use of close ups. It's like they had a camera mounted Mic and were trying to stay in close enough range for the best audio. I think these filmmakers have some talent, I think they just need to concentrate more on good audio, and developing a solid plot.

a friend rented this one looking for a cheesy horror movie, but soon found out it was a worthless piece of s*#t that should never have been conceptualized, nor filmed and sold. This schmorgasbord of terrible acting, terrible lines, terrible effects, terrible directing, and especially the terrible cinematography are a very good reminder that money can put out any lame waste of film. Even after all of that, you are disappointed by the lack of creativity that the writer/director had when he ripped off both "Groundhog Day" and "Friday the 13th" set in the 80s. The only worth that this DVD has is either being a coaster or a punchline while drinking with some friends. ***Also, it helps to mention that SOMEHOW there are 37 people who voted it as a PERFECT 10!! Seems to me that the actors and director all voted it as a 10 to throw people off the stench of their proverbial dirty diaper.*** DO NOT WASTE YOUR LIFE WATCHING THIS. I FEEL ROBBED OF MY TIME.

this movie should just be placed in comedy actually I watched this movie because i like horror films this was far from it most of the actors did a really really REALLY bad job in the film luckily there were a couple good ones this movie would've been a great film if it had more fighting scenes rather than boom your dead and a lot less cussing and well less blood oh and no close ups of the weapons the used that was one of the worst things about this movie is all of the weapon close ups i say overall the commercial for this movie was better than the actual thing!!!!!!!!! if you want to laugh at extremely bad acting and cheesy killing watch this if you like horror Don't EVER SEE THIS MOVIE!!!!!!

I did, and a good time was had by all. First off, let me say that this movie is garbage. It just is. Now that that's out of the way, it DOES have some good points, but for the most part, it's garbage. The main garbage point is the story. It had amazing potential- but was extremely poorly executed. Did any of you ever see that episode of the Aladdin cartoon where they got caught up in this weird magical time loop? If so, you've seen how GOOD this movie's plot could have been. If not, you've only seen how BAD this movie's plot could have been. This movie is about some people who stumble upon a camp caught in a 24-hour time loop in which people get killed, every day, by an unseen killer (or killers). This is a great plot- except THE KILLERS AND SOME OF THE VICTIMS KNOW ABOUT THE LOOP. The ONLY way that this plot would have been even remotely sensical is if everyone involved has no knowledge of it whatsoever. If you committed a bunch of murders, and then got killed yourself, and then found out that your exploits caused you and those around you to loop over and over repeatedly, would you keep doing it? And, if so, would you keep falling for the same traps over and over? The killers, however, don't seem to care. They're perfectly content with killing the same people, every day, over and over, and then getting killed themselves (without, you know, stopping their own deaths), without any regard for what's going on. The audio is terrible, the acting is terrible, the camera-work is terrible, and the story is absolutely terrible. The blatant homo-eroticism is the only thing driving this movie.
