Summary: pretty good for a few good stories
Review: others here have told of bad acting, i didnt find it all that terrible, i've certainly seen much worse
i thought there are many parts that are lame, but i dont think the film set out to be the most terrifying thing either, so given that, it does pretty well
like many other movies like this, it has about 4 different short stories that are strung together through the the storytelling of a park ranger
i found each of the stories a little bit too simple and easy to give them much credit in originality, but they at least held my intrest long enough, all in all i'd say worth watching and worth renting if you are looking to watch some campy scary stories, especially if there are youngsters with you, as the stories are not too scary

Summary: so extremely lame it hurts
Review: some friends and i rented this one weekend thinking it would be a nice scary movie. well there is not a single moment in the film where you are even slightly frightened except for the point where your brain tries to gnaw its way out of your skull from the painful lameness.and even that fright is quick to pass. there is, however, one quote in this movie that is funny enough to justify the time you spent watching it. it is simply this: "just when you think you've got life by the balls, you kill an indian, and then he steals your soul". do not ask me what it means i couldn't tell you but its wisdom has helped me through some tough times. on a side note i think the guys at mystery science theatre could help this one out a bit.

Summary: Campfire Stories
Review: The movie starts out with two dudes trying to goto a backwoods party they soon come across a young woman having car trouble.She leads them into a forest where they find a Forest Ranger he tells them to sit down and listen to three stories.The first one is about these football boys bullying a mentally handicapped janitor he steals the ring leaders bag and they find themselves chasing him into a forest hoping on bullying him some more one by one he kills all of them except the ring leader then eventually the janitor butchers him up.The second story is about these three people who bully this follow this Native American into his place and then kill him and take his magical weed and go into his trailer and smoke the weed once they do that they find out that the weed they smoked was sucking the soul out of them soon they all turn old the end.The last story i just watched it for the fine looking girl other than that the last sucked as much as the second.Then the two dudes and the young woman find a towtruck and go into a bar where they see a fake kiss looking type group soon they ask the bartender and he turns around to find out he is the forest ranger.They see that the janitor,the native american,and the chick on the third one, are all there laughing soon they attack the two dudes and the young woman runs out of the bar and ask another group of strangers if she can have a ride and then her eyes glow.The ending was poor it looks like it was all in one shot.There are no extras or deleted scenes on the dvd.Watch this movie for a good laugh.

Summary: Grade of F even by B movie standards
Review: This movie is just plain bad. Not "bad" as in "It's so bad let's get drunk and make fun of it" - I'm talking "bad" as in I would have preferred to have my fingernails yanked out by a wet mongoose "bad".

Summary: trash
Review: this movie is not even worth renting, trust me. the entire crew of this movie put so little effort into all aspects of production that it is completly unwatchable. The plots are simple and childish(essentialy poorly acted and directed "Are you afraid of the dark?" sequences.

Summary: Campfire Stories....
Review: This movie was not that bad. The first time I watched it, I was like what the heck??? I looked at it a second time, and I really like it. I won't write another movie description because other people have done so already.
Check the movie out for yourself, and maybe you'll like it, too.

Summary: Should this even be a movie?
Review: To all the cheap horror movie fans out there, Campfire Stories is a very very very low-budget film, with no sence of horror in it. If you get scared easy, dont be suprised if you dont get scared, because you wont....trust me.This movie consists of like 3 or 4 inside stories, that are meant to SCARE you. All you will get out of those stories, are laughs made directly at how bad this movie is. I know this movie is from a comic book series, which is fine, but isnt it bad to have a popular product, and make a another terrible product out of it (being this movie). I didn't want to watch this movie, but my step-dad is a type of person who rents movies that look good on the cover, but instead turn out to be a totally terrible movie in the process. The phrase "Don't Judge A Book By Its Cover" fits this movie well. Instead its "Don't Judge A Movie By Its Cover." With that said, please do not rent or buy this movie expecting it to be great. Zero out of * (I was forced to put one *) P.S. Stay Away From This Movie! Low Budget Films = Disaster. -Just Got Wicked

Summary: Whut in tarnation????
Review: Well, gather round this here campfire, shoppers an' horror movie lovers, an' let me tell you a cautionary tale thet might keep y'all from havin' to sit through this pitcher like this here reviewer did! Y'see, this ole reviwer's always had a thang fer them horror-anthology pitchers thet tell several tales in one. Since some of'er fav'rite horror films are Creepshow, Tales from the Hood, Tales from the Darkside, Twilight Zone the Movie and the likes, she thought she might enjoy watchin' this pitcher. Why, she even sawr a reel scerry one called Campfire TALES, not t'be kinfused with this sorry excuse fer a pitcher, thet scered her so bad she made her husband come inter th' room to hold her hand! Now see, yer reviwer was fooled by the credit sequence, which showed a comic book come to life, and a talkin' skull warnin' ya about the movie yer about to watch. Why, it even had that neat Creepshow-lookin' font! She thought that looked real cool and gots kinda excited, cause she figgered there was no way anyone could screw up a pitcher thet opened like that. Well, turns out yer ole reviewer was wrong! Fans o' that Jamie-Lynn Sigler from that citified HBO drama the Sopranos, should be warned that she only appears in the pitcher's inept framin' device. This here framin' device has her and two young fellers stranded in the woods waitin' fer a tow truck, when who should they run into but a feller that looks a lot like thet David Johansen of the New York Dolls, playin' a crazy character name o' Ranger Bill! Fer some reason, even though the pitcher advertised that it was filmed on location in New Jersey, this here Ranger Bill talks like an old prospecter from a bad Western, kinda like I am right now. I guess them fellers that made the movie thought it was a mite scarier than a Brooklyn accent. Anyway, he proceeds to tell the young fellers three campfire stories. Now this here revirewer is a mite confused, because she always figgered that campfire stories were supposed to be scary. The tired, predictible-like stories are about, first, a killer in the woods, featuring a real unnecessary-like prologue, second, about some mean young'uns who kill a Native American Medicine man fer no apperent reason, then start smoking some o' his wacky tobaccy and hallucinatin' some o' those fancified CGI critter effects, only not very good ones .In all fairness I gots to admit thet middle story wasn't quite as predictible, but it shore was borin'! But don't git yer hopes up. There's a third story that's just as tired an' predictable as the others concernin' two couples in a supposedly haunted house bein' stalked by a killer with a camcorder. Evidently that there killer straps the camcorder to his haid when he murders people, since he films his victims while killin' im with both hands! Also, fer some reason, at the end of the framin' device, (the predictible endin' o which is given away anyway in the trailer, which by th' way is the only DVD extra), that there band the Misfits show up! This ole reviewer wondered if any o' this was supposed to make her feel a mite scared, cause by this time she was a-strugglin' to keep awake. By the way, there ain't much gore in this pitcher, in fact, them MPAA varmints coulda rated th' thing PG. Yer ole reviewer was also feelin' a mite sorry fer the likes of The Misfits, David Johansson, and thet Sopranos chick by the time this dadblamed pitcher was over. Durin' the end credits, we get to see thet Ranger Bill sayin' things to the camera like, "Have you kissed a Ranger today?" intercut with some comic book pages, which turned out to be th' only mildly interestin' thing in the cornsarn flick! Anyway, this here reviewer thought she'd better gather y'all consumers an' moviegoers alike round the fire an' warn ya not to rent, buy, or sit through this sorry excuse for a horror pitcher, so y'all don't hafta suffer the same terrible fate! RUN!!!!

Summary: stupid
Review: yes it is low budget. so what! that doesn't change the fact that it was a piece of junk. i bought it in a five dollar bin and only watched it once. i gave it away and the person i gave it to ended up giving it away. he couldn't even watch the whole thing. if i was an actor in this movie i don't know if i would go around telling anyone i was involved in the film. i wish i never even heard of the film. DON'T WATCH THIS MOVIE! IT'S STUPID BEYOND BELIEF AND YOU'LL HAVE WASTED A FEW HOURS OF YOUR LIFE THAT YOU CANNOT HAVE BACK!
