Movies verging on Camp

by PeplumParadise | created - 30 Mar 2012 | updated - 26 Jul 2015 | Public

This list is intended as a companion piece to my main list of "Camp Movies" (http://www.imdb.com/list/M0JYZK-2e30/).

While viewing films for consideration for my main list I came across a number of titles which, while not outright camp, certainly contain elements or performances which make them worthy of consideration. The movies on this list would score 7-8 on my campometer, while movies scoring 9-10 are included on the main list.

Latest additions: Black Widow (1954) To New Shores (1937) The Curious Female Bride And Prejudice
