4.0 out of 5 stars A CAMPY THROW BACK TO 80'S SLASHER FILMS
If I can paraphrase from Forrest Gump, Lions Gate Films are like a box of chocolates. You really never know what you are going to get. Sometimes it might be a rich chewy caramel, and other times it might be one of those nasty fruits. Thankfully I was pleasantly surprised by Motor Home Massacre which is a campy throwback to the slasher films of the 1980's. And isn't it...

1.0 out of 5 stars this movie is hilarious, June 17, 2006
This review is from: Motor Home Massacre (DVD)
When i saw the cover it looked pretty scary when i started it i had to skip half of the scenes because they were so boring. the acting was so bad i almost fell asleep. there is even a guy like eminem its so horrible. When you see the killer finaly it gets funny. the funny parts are the only good part of the movie. Dont get this unless you like low budget movies and being bored out of your mind!

Some of the funny things are in the begining a girl is killed in a tent. It looks like they stuck a cow in there and stabbed it with a plastic machette. The girl talks to an imaginary boyfriend and i cant go on because im reliving this horrible movie. A visit to the doctor is even better.

1.0 out of 5 stars Truly, one of the worst of all time, July 28, 2006
By 
This review is from: Motor Home Massacre (DVD)
$23.99 for this film..on sale? HA! I wouldn't give .02 cents for it. Motor Home Massacre has to be one of the worst films of all time; Lazy effort, uninteresting, unbelievable and horrible acting. I don't think I have ever wanted the actors in a movie to die so fast and so painfully in a film as much as this one. How could any self respecting director or producer put out this garbage??? UN BE LEAVE ABLE. From start to finish, it's plain and simply GARBAGE. Don't waste your money or time.

4.0 out of 5 stars A CAMPY THROW BACK TO 80'S SLASHER FILMS, May 3, 2006
This review is from: Motor Home Massacre (DVD)
If I can paraphrase from Forrest Gump, Lions Gate Films are like a box of chocolates. You really never know what you are going to get. Sometimes it might be a rich chewy caramel, and other times it might be one of those nasty fruits. Thankfully I was pleasantly surprised by Motor Home Massacre which is a campy throwback to the slasher films of the 1980's. And isn't it scary that were now looking at slasher films of the 1980's with a nostalgic eye? It's a low budget film but the filmmakers at least seem to know this and don't take themselves too seriously. The plot is standard fare: A group of good looking friends packs up an RV and heads out to the woods for a good time, only to encounter a goggle-wearing ( I kid you not) psycho bent on busting up the party.

Yes the acting is quite Amateurish, especially on the part of the women. It's pretty clear most of them are along for the ride because they are very hot and show some skin and have fantastic bodies. Certainly Motor Home Massacre gets an "A" when it comes to having a hot female cast. Shan Holleman as the female lead Sabrina is quite attractive and does an OK job, as does Tanya Fraser as Nicole. The rest of the females are pretty much just eye-candy. It's a fairly action-packed slasher with decent special effects and decent gore along with some pretty inventive kills. I'd say the cast and crew had a pretty good time making the film. Technically it's OK. The music is pretty uneven and there are spots when it's a bit too dark but all in all, you can do much worse for a recent slasher film than Motor Home Massacre.

2.0 out of 5 stars Thank goodness it was a free rental!, September 18, 2006

Curly Girl (Long Island, New York) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Motor Home Massacre (DVD)
In all honesty, I didn't expect too much; although I have been pleasantly surprised by some other straight to DVD horror films. I wasn't sure if it was their intention to be as cheesy and cliched as they were, but the "acting" on the Simple Life totally outdoes the acting here. There was little consistency; in one scene "the nerd" is wearing a button down dress shirt, and then when he climbs aboard the RV, he has on a sweater vest. The tagline on the back is even wrong! They didn't make a wrong turn ("wrong turn" was a much better movie than this) they knew where they were going. Bad...simply all bad.

1.0 out of 5 stars Horrible disaster of a movie, November 27, 2006
This review is from: Motor Home Massacre (DVD)
Seriously people do NOT buy this movie. This movie is so horrible, I can't even put it into words. The acting is not even mediocre. I don't even know if to call it acting. It shouldn't be called acting it would be an insult to the real actors out there.

When you read the negative reviews, please read all of them. They are absolutely telling you the truth. I'm sure you've never heard of this movie and some of the people here probably rented or bought the movie like I did based on the cover. That's all it is a scary cover, nothing more. The movie wasn't scary at all. If I could give this movie 0 stars I would.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worst movie ever made, July 28, 2009
This review is from: Motor Home Massacre (DVD)
My title may be a bit misleading, but this movie is by far the worst movie ever made which also makes it great. My fiance and I love renting C level horror movies because of the cheesy acting and bad plots, we get a good laugh out of it. However this movie takes the cake. At no point in the movie am I actually on edge. The killer never seems threatening or dangerous, and you actually get to the point where you root for the characters to die. The acting is horrendous which is probably why you have not seen any of these 'actors' in any other movies.

The absolute best part of this movie is the inconsistencies. At several times the campers are sitting around a campfire where it is pitch black however when chased by the killer it all of a sudden appears to be early evening. Did he chase them through a wormhole? Also pay attention to the characters clothing. Benji's phantom sweater will randomly be off and on between scenes. Specifically there is one scene where he is wearing an unbuttoned oxford when getting onto the RV and literally as soon as he boards the RV he not only has his shirt buttoned, he also has a tie and sweater vest. Is he a quick change artist?

Don't see this movie if you don't like TERRIBLE, LOW Quality horror movies absent of any horror. If you like this movie check out other low budget crapfests like Small Town Folk and Trailer Park of Terror, number 2 and 3 on the worst movie list respectively.

1.0 out of 5 stars Seriously. I was on the edge of my seat... hoping (foolishly) that it would somehow become a good movie..., September 22, 2006

This review is from: Motor Home Massacre (DVD)
Slasher movies are the red-headed step child of the horror genre. They are the easiest to do and also the ones that are usually terrible and completely unorigional. This is an example of the worst of the worst. It takes the basic slaher premise... a group of fun loving adult-teens go on a road trip only to be stalked and picked off by a "hidden" killer. There are the token victims and in this films case, there is no fun trying to determine who will live and who will die because once any of the characters spoke, it was EXTREEMLY evident what their fate would be. So, our dim-witted future-victims go to a camp site and despite learning there was a murder there the night before stay there to "continue" with the fun as planned. They even befriend a young woman at the camp site (all the alarms should have gone off... someone else in a campsite where a murder went down... hmmmm) and chill with each other by a fire as they talk and ramble about stuff a script couldn't have even improved upon. Each and every actor was gratingly off... and not a single one of them did not get on my nerves. As I watched them speak, I wondered where these card board cut outs who only appeared human like came from. So, when they were finaly dispatched, I felt little pity and maybe a little satisfaction. Of course, it was not enough that this movie had horrible actors and a weak suspensless plot... it also had a killer who was down-right unbelievable. I mean, yes... I guessed who it was the minute the character made the appearance, but that aside there was no real way this person would be "Strong" enough to pull off some of the kills they did. Which brings me to the only pro out of this turd on wheels slasher flick. There were a couple of kills that were actually pretty decent. The one in the tent involving a tree, machette, and twine was quite unexpected. Taht said, the kills hardly redeem this flop of a horror film and there really is no reason to watch it... not even at a "horror movie aprty" night where everyone gets drunk and makes fun of the movie. Oh no... this film would only serve as the sobering last act...

1.0 out of 5 stars Motor Home Massacre, June 4, 2011
This review is from: Motor Home Massacre (DVD)
I don't usually review a movie or book on Amazon. But this will be an exception. I read the preview in the back and felt it would be somewhat good. Even if the scary things happened in the last half hour, I would have liked it. But you know what? The scary stuff did not happen. The preview said torture and the only torture I saw was on myself for watching this crap. Thankfully, I bought it at a supermarket for 3.99 and felt bad that a supermarket has to sell a movie of this calibur or lack of to make a buck. It was by the medicine aisle and deservingly so because it is capable of making people sick. I'm not trashing this movie because I am bored or just felt like reviewing on Amazon, it was pretty bad and the one star I gave it was too much as far as I am concerned but that was the only option this site gave to me.

3.0 out of 5 stars Just take it for what it is, August 29, 2009
This review is from: Motor Home Massacre (DVD)

If I can sit through "Stupid Teenagers Must Die", then I can sit through this movie and not feel like I want a motorhome to run me over. Granted, the acting was poor and the budget was low, but if I were 15 years old again, I can see myself and my buddies getting together on a friday night and making this a soon to be cult classic. The girls in the movie are very hot which peaks any guys curiousity and the redneck in the grocery store with that awesomely funny laugh is sure to be an impersonators dream. The one scene where the killer is chasing the brunnette down an old lane and the all you see at times is the killer chasing from behind is soooo darn funny!!! I almost fell off the sofa. The ending is a hoot when the one blonde gives her take on relationships and love as she is beating the killer with a frying pan. Again, if you have a few cents and a night just to accept this flick for what it is, then go for it !!! I have seen worse.
