Sometimes funny, always bad HK slasher
19 May 2023
The Deadly Camp is a slasher/horror type of film that nods to Friday The 13 and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Keep in mind, this is ultra low budget and really, really bad. The script doesn't have much to offer with telling a story or characters. Basically there is a family of freaks that kills people that they see as trespassing on their island. Being a Hong Kong film really didn't make it more interesting other than casting Anthony Wong as someone who has screen presence and is interesting. For those that understand the HK sense of humor, there is some hilarious stuff here with the mostly unsympathetic idiots that get killed off. I found myself dozing off at many points in the film. The Deadly Camp was recently released with two other Catagory III movies. This was not a Catagory III film and is relatively mild when concerned with blood and gore. It also is the weakest movie of the three, so you might want to skip it.
