READ FIRST: Sorry, guys, I watched this last week right before I was set to be in my best friend’s wedding! ‘Tis a beautiful thing to be a part of and witness, truly. So, I felt no guilt for not posting until just now. Weddings are more important than blog posts. However, right after the amazing wedding, I got a massive cold/throat bug. As a result, I am posting this even later than I planned because I have had my head stuck in a Kleenex box for the past day or so. So very sorry and without further ado, I present, a film so bad…I would rather suffer through 4 more bouts of cold-related symptoms…than watch it again.
Alright, so I understand I did this to myself. As some of you might be aware, I posted a status saying I would watch this movie and review it if the post itself got 10 likes. I don’t typically do that kind of thing but I needed something to give me the extra push to watch…this:
Yup, Bloody Bloody Bible Camp. This is categorized as a comedy and I know very little about it besides it’s general description .As you can see in the image above, “100% Satan Approved!” I tried not to read or look at anything else about the movie but I did unintentionally find out it has been called a “grindhouse” horror movie. I am not an expert on that horror sub-genre/style so I don’t think I will be able to determine if it is an authentic grindhouse movie. Ok. I’m waffling for time. Let’s start this thing!
Basic premise as described by the movie (more or less): A bunch of horndog teens/young people…head to Bible camp? Why would they go there? I thought it would be like…they are required to do something but hey, movie hasn’t started yet. Anyway, as you can see in the poster, the antagonist (or protagonist if you hate sex-crazed teens) is a “sadistic and crazy nun.” And it looks like she is gonna clean up these teens’ act…in a daredevil mask if the poster is to be believed.
My lovely boyfriend (pictured below) will be joining me in this live-review as well!
Oh my gosh. I can’t even repeat what the first line of the movie is…just that girls are saying they should date guys who look like Jesus.
Still can’t repeat….what this movie is…saying…
Everyone in this movie is wearing a wig.
(To Ed): Oh also, they’re talking about how Elvis became canonized as a saint…I think.
Ed: Is that chest hair? Or is he wearing a sweater under his shirt? (In referring to a “Priest” who is dressed like Elvis.)
“Sylvester Stallone is the cutest actor out there….I know he’s short but…”
Now they are talking about Burt Reynolds and smokey and the bandit. I have officially forgotten what time period this movie is set in. (Upon reviewing, I am fairly sure I can tell you there was no indication what time period they were in but it seemed like a mish mash of the 70s and 80s.
This movie….I no longer know how to categorize this.
Someone looks like Jesus and they are rolling a joint….
And they just got stabbed through the eye.
Someone is killing like everyone. I am terrified…that this movie is an hour and a half.
Ok just figured out the person is wearing a halloween nun costume. Got a glimpse as they were strangling the priest. Don’t worry. I don’t think he was an actual priest.
Cue “Christian” counselor/teen singing a anti-satan song. This too is unrepeatable.
It is important to note I just had to watch a *ahem* romantic tryst between a random girl and some guy named “Chazz” who just announced he had to take a dump.
Oh wow…they are showing it.
HE IS PRAYING! LOL WHAT IS THIS MOVIE!?
Finally, some violence. I am not one to glorify violence but…I needed some after…all that.
Alright, so I am guessing they all were killed and that was the 70s…I hope it was supposed to be the 70s. And now…its present day? I dunno, some group of young people are singing as we get a driver’s POV of the road as they sing a terrible “christian song.”
Actual quote from someone: “Holy Rolling!” and “Yay Jesus!”
Oh, they actually gave this priest a collar. Not sure if that’s a good thing or a bad thing. And we have our first black person in the movie! Brother Zeke. And we are in the 80s? Maybe?
And we have a priest asking a female youth if she needs a tampon! I was WAITING for that!? Sweet, sweet awkwardness.
And now a man old enough to be my father is wearing eyeliner like Criss Angel but worse. And the “goth” girl of the group is flirting with him.
*BRIEF TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES CAUSE LISA HAS TO PUKE*
Back just in time for the rednecks. One is ACTUALLY drooling.
Oh…they are going to “Happy Day Bible Camp”
Actual Line: “Don’t you mean the BLOODY, BLOODY Bible Camp?”
Sister Mary Chopper is our (Alleged) killer.
Some (literally) drooling hillbilly is the only survivor.
Now they are at the camp! And some kid named Tad is wearing a girl’s top…for some reason.
HEY GOTH CHICK! YOU STOP BASHING AMY GRANT! SHE IS A 90’S TREASURE!
Goth chick is named Jennifer, girl who can’t spell “Hell” is called Britney. Timmy is the “fat kid” and then there is some guy dressed in a cowboy shirt.
And it was just revealed both the Priest and Brother Zeke….drive Jaguars!?
(I don’t have enough WHAT gifs, you guys)
“This is gonna be a weekend we’ll be talking about for the rest of our lives.” HAHA, GET IT!? CAUSE THEY ALL GON’ DIE TONIGHT!?
Brother Zeke is a…tuskegee airman? His words, not mine.
I hope that’s not inappropriate. But don’t tell me if it is. Please.
Cue a terrible….pretty much non-sensical song about gender roles and racoon skin caps.
Oh and we finally got a shot of the killer again. It is a nun…who is a man clearly judging by the voice…and is surrounded by candles and dolls. Man, that is gonna be one HECK of a twist! YOU CAN’T MAKE ME USE PUNS MOVIE! YOU CAN’T MAKE ME!
Goth girl: “Wasn’t Jesus the Prince of Thieves?”
I mean…they know they are terrible but…I mean. *Sigh* There’s believably stupid, over-the-top stupid….and then…I don’t every know what to call this line. Oh, that’s right. Not funny.
WHO IS TO BLAME FOR ME WATCHING THIS MOVIE!?
Oh me?
Fair enough.
Now they are doing bible trivia.
“Who killed Jesus?”
I know what the answer is…I mean it’s wrong but I know…
Britney: “THE JEWS!”
That is what I was gonna say. Don’t I get a prize?
….You know what…I don’t want whatever prize these people give out.
Brother Zeke is wearing…a gold…bathing suit.
NO I WILL NOT BE MORE DESCRIPTIVE!
Cut to Sister Mary Chopper…singing to herself a version of the Barney theme song mashup with the Lord’s Prayer….I think.
Also, the sound levels are so messed up that if I did not have captions I would not know what they are saying…maybe I should turn the captions off
YES! FINALLY SISTER MARY CHOPPER IS ON THE CAMPGROUNDS!
*cue Ed laughing all sinister-like. This is why I love my boyfriend.*
And after Brother Zeke made a stereotypical “black” line, he is our first casualty! BEHEADED
Also, apparently…the killer is a rando guy who was once made fun of by a nun with an eyepatch. Oh, correction. Ed has confirmed that is definitely one of those pirate nuns.
Britney: Jesus is cool with wine coolers.
No problem with that line, actually. I would assume he is.
And Tad was just turned into a Strawberry gusher.
ANOTHER ONE DOWN!
I would like to take this time to say, I …again…do not applaud violence. But the sooner everyone dies…the sooner this movie can be over.
Ed: Overkill
For Reference:
Timmy: I’m gonna go find a soda machine!
Second favorite line so far.
fast forward to the priest smoking weed he confiscated…wearing cat paw slippers.
Ed: I WANT THOSE SLIPPERS!
Me: I will get you those slippers.
Ok, so the priest is dead.
So is Britney.
And timmy just got a cinderblock dropped on his head.
Now Millie is dead. Probably was killed by this line alone: “Thou shalt have everlasting life…or not!”
Actually….on second thought…I love that line.
And…as the movie promised in the opening credits… Ron Jeremy is Jesus. Yup. Really is.
Oh man….the nun is a guy….WHAT A TWIST!!!
Ed: Thank God he put the mask back on.
Me: Yeah his face was super scary.
(It was.)
And…I can barely type now because they are playing three stooges music (or the stock music version) as the priest (who isn’t all that dead) is punching Mary Chopper.
It’s pretty great.
And…cue…no lie…Ron Jeremy playing Amazing Grace on a harmonica.
Ok, I will admit…I had fun watching that. So many cringey moments I nearly had a case of internal bleeding…but it was just so bad and so over-the-top. If you wanna see it, be my quest but…this movie is absolutely terrible. And with quite a few Bad horror movies, I love them and want to watch it again. Not this one. If you watch this movie, I would be sorry but…I warned you.
Until next time,
Twiggy (cringes)
