It's hard to call Turkey Shoot a good movie. Entertaining and weirdly ambitious is probably the best way to put it but as far as I'm concerned those are two components to a good movie in general. It's an interesting watch.

They hired maybe the least charismatic leads they could go with. Railsback is not a bad actor at all. He's just not someone that you immediately latch onto as a savior from a dystopian death camp. Olivia Hussey here also looks like she's done a lot of living. I'm sure they hired her in hopes you remembered her at 15 in Romeo and Juliette but clearly this is more than a few years later and she's done some living. It's not so much that the little boys in the audience aren't going to want to save her as much as I had a super hard time not believing she wasn't a fully grown woman who'd done some living instead of the pure as snow youngin that was overwhelmed by evil rich people. The villains are all pretty well cast and hilarious which makes up for the leads. They at least seem like they could menace them.

The low budget is obvious but it's fun. The terrifying dune buggey of death being a good example. The sets look like a good wind could take them out. Even with all that though, they manage to still wrangle some audience investment into the thing. Pure force of will situation. It's pretty hard too considering the script is comically preachy but doesn't have anything to really say, which is always the hallmark of exploitation films.

I'd recommend the movie to anyone who enjoys B-films with a bit more ambition or people who really like John Carpenter films.

*I received a review copy of this film in exchange for an honest review

Seems like every time I turn around, the fine folks at Severin Films and CAV Distribution are releasing even more obscure and excellent titles, many of which I’ve never even heard of. As an avid movie fan, I am chagrinned to admit there are titles out there with which I’m not familiar, but I also find it fascinating as well. It’s amazing just how many are out there. Today’s title, TURKEY SHOOT (also known as ESCAPE 2000 and BLOOD CAMP THATCHER) is one of these long-lost classics. And although it’s dated, it’s a lot of fun nonetheless.

The concept of this film is not new, however it is one of my favorite overarching storylines in fiction or films. I love the idea of someone hunting human beings because man is intelligent and resourceful, therefore he makes the perfect prey to try and bag.

TURKEY SHOOT is shot well for the most part (as I said, it’s dated, so the camerawork is nothing amazing), but it looks good onscreen. If you take into consideration the time period in which it was made, the production value looks high and makes this look like a bigger budget film (IMDB estimates the budget was 3.2 million, certainly nothing to sneeze it for back in the day).

The acting is pretty decent, with Steve Railsback and Olivia Hussey in the lead roles. Railsback is just about a genre icon, starring in many memorable films that include LIFEFORCE and ED GEIN. Hussey is probably best known for her stunning portrayal of Juliet in Franco Zeffirelli’s ROMEO AND JULIET, however she is well known in genre circles as well for starring in films such as 1974’s BLACK CHRISTMAS, Stephen King’s IT, and the cult classic ICE CREAM MAN.
