Don't expect a great film, or even a good one; rip-offs galore and plenty of nonsense cut-away/scenes.
But Ronald Reagen is a huge saving grace for this beermat script. If it weren't for the weird insert of this serial killer I think I would've been pretty saddened at having los... read more
A strange, stoner slasher produced and directed by David Arquette (Scream). It's quite a decent modern slasher, quite odd but the back story as to why this guy goes off the rails killing hippies is explained. Less so the high regard Ronald Regan is given. It's funny in places, ha... read more
If you like seeing hippies getting axed to death by Ronald Regan, this is the movie for you. Other highlights include Courtney Cox getting killed by evil dogs, and Paul Reubens covered in outhouse crap before he gets chopped down the middle with a chainsaw.
What an odd, odd film. Political commentary meets slasher film. A guy dressed as Ronald Reagan runs around killing hippies with an axe. Lots of good gore and such, but just a really weird vibe.
Hippies slaughtered by a man in a Reagan mask... The film's about half as good as it sounds. Which isn't very good. The politics are about as subtle as a machete to the testicles.
"The Tripper" is basically just your average slasher fare with politic It's nothing groundbreaking, but it had a lot of hilarious moments and gory kills.
David Arquette brings us an unscarey horror comedy that is a political satire meets slasher flick. Decent gore, T&A.. & D actually, highlight this hippie, dippie, stoner... Republican? chopfest. Heeeeeere's Ronnie!
A decent bloody & gory slasher film from David Arquette on his directorial debut.He did a good job behind the camera so it will be interesting what else he can come up with in a near future.The dialog wasn't so good,i'm sure the movie was intended to be funny at times but it didn... read more
Fun horror romp in the forest! Very different and silly and fun and occasionally scary. Not a masterpiece for sure but good entertainment still.
A mostly dull-blade exercise that offers little to think or scream about. Full Review
too many moments just didn't make sense or work in the slightest for somebody sober Full Review
It's different, but is it any good? As another former President might say, "Depends on how you define 'good'." Full Review
A serial killer wearing a Ronald Reagan mask is killing off hippies at what must be the most under-attended music festival ever . . . Full Review
The first thirty minutes are quite good and the ending works very well, but there's an entire middle section which is badly paced and packed with filler. Full Review
Horror fans with a sense of humor will really enjoy this slice of gory goodness. Full Review
Much like David Arquette's acting career, the film is often unbearable and rarely shows competence, but still remains an antagonistic curiosity that can't be easily denied. Full Review
Wickedly funny.
Ineptly written by Arquette and Joe Harris, The Tripper is a carnival of cretins doing and saying one ass-headed thing after another. Full Review
