Storyline

At the end of every summer, the children of a Christian community from a suburb of New Jersey attend Camp Hope. They travel deep into the woods far from any distractions the world provides. Here, the children are taught the ways of the Lord, the perils of the flesh, and the horror of the Devil. A charismatic priest leads them in their training. But, he unknowingly has brought something with him, something evil. What was supposed to be a safe place, a spiritual retreat has now turned into a nightmare that not even faith can end.

User Reviews

indeed hell

Over here it's called camp hell, a perfect title, it was indeed hell to watch, or in the US it was released as camp hope, yes, i hoped it was over. What was this that I just watched, luckily I paid almost nothing for this piece of crap. I thought that you couldn't get worser than the Twilight franchise but it could be done. This is all about not having intercourse or don't masturbate. And don't get me wrong, you won't see any of this. This is for me just a promo for fundamental Christians. Nothing else happens. No horror, no scary parts, no nudity, no nothing except 3 dead pigeons beheaded, man was I afraid. If you are a Christian in real life than you will surely masturbate on this one but for the pagans, as they call it, don't visit camp hell.
