Despite some curious performances, you wouldn't want to camp out here too long.

Insulting to the intelligence and filled with numbingly awful jokes and little originality.

Part dark comedy, part sex farce, part sloppy mess, Daniel Waters' HAPPY CAMPERS is a cult classic waiting to happen.

It's a camp movie, but it is not totally dumded down. Although there is the typical cliche camp movie stuff in here they also try to infuse some teeange drama in here for an older crowd to enjoy.
