This movie is done in the traditional 80's horror movie. Gore, predictable story, gratuitous nudity, and tons of funny scenes. If you like these elements in a horror film then definitly watch this movie, but dont do it sober.... Full review

Other than Thomas Jane's performance as the law officer trying to keep a hippie music fest under control while investigating dismembered young adults, there isn't one reason to see The Tripper. Jane's performance is perfect for this camp fest and brings... Full review

When I heard this premise, I wasn't sure that this was going to be more comedy or more slasher. Truth be told it's both and it's a lot of fun to watch. Besides what's not to like about it's goofy premise:... Full review

Critics Reviews

The slasher flick The Tripper suffers from the misfortune of being released the same week as the events at Virginia Tech.
The Tripper , however, is too drunk on its own excesses, its style-conscious rip-offs of '60s- and '70s-era counterculture flicks ( Easy Rider , Deliverance , The Texas Chainsaw Massacre ), and too thematically confused, playing both political sides against the middle, for anything like coherent, intelligent storytelling to bleed through.
