Camp 139 (2013)

2/10

Warning: Spoilers

5 people are credited with writing this mess of a movie. Why? The movie is just a collection of horror movie formulas, with no originality at all.

Worse was the direction. Scenes jumped from one to another without any logic or connection.

I guess another question I would have is: How do movies like this even get made? Or better, how do they get DVD releases? This is so amateurish that I don't think it would be acceptable as a film student film.

Easily one of the worst movies I've ever seen. The only redeeming feature is that it is short, so the pain of enduring it doesn't last long.

Arizona-shot slasher is a real time waste

Leofwine_draca20 March 2017

Warning: Spoilers

CAMP 139 is another would-be waste-of-time slasher made on a micro budget and with no sense, feeling, or originality. This one was filmed in Arizona and plays out exactly the same as at least a hundred, if not hundreds, of others: a bunch of youths decide to head into the woods where they find themselves stalked by a madman.

The whole of this film is shot in the daytime in woods which look far from frightening or even atmospheric. The unconvincing performances combine with the unlikeable characters to make the protagonists equal parts dull and unpleasant. The killer is seen so rarely that his presence feels like a cameo in his own movie. CAMP 139 is just a time waste, nothing more.

Reprehensibly uses actual footage of wwII Nazi Camps

kbtoys10018 March 2023

This movie doesn't deserve a review for the disgusting choice to use actual (mercifully brief) footage of concentration camp victims during its 'flashback' scene giving the backstory to its killer.

If that isn't enough for you to decide to not support these 'filmmakers' then perhaps the fact that there is little plot, horrible acting, and barely any gore may persuade you to not waste your time.

The first 20 minutes are time filler while our main group is introduced then goes to buy drugs, run afoul of some rednecks and meet the hokey sheriff. Then they go to the woods and get killed in unspectacular ways before an extremely lame ending and long-winded explanation who the killer is.

Filmed in 2013 and seemingly unreleased until showing up on Tubi about a decade later.

If they hadn't included footage of actual human suffering passed off as entertainment this film would have gotten a 3/10. As is this should have stayed unreleased. Shame on the filmmakers.
