Plot summary



Based on the Imperium Comics series of the same name, 'Trailer Park of Terror' follows six troubled high school students and their leader, the optimistic youth ministries pastor, Lewis (Matthew Del Negro). As the group return from an outdoor character building retreat in the mountains they become lost on the back roads after their bus crashes during a raging storm. The luckless group seeks refuge for the night in a seemingly abandoned trailer park down the road, managed by the strange and seductive Norma (Nichole Hiltz). As the night progresses they find that the park is anything but empty as Norma and her undead trailer trash buddies pick them off in imaginative ways.

The film was subsequently released on DVD on January 26, 2009.

Reception



Dai Green of Horrornews.net described the film as "a grotesque, bloody, hilarious, testament to what happens when a director knows there is more out there than horror-p*rn flicks," and likened the character of Norma to "a cross between Reese Witherspoon in Freeway and Sherrie Moon Zombie in House Of 1000 Corpses." He gave the film a rating of "four horns". Joe Leydon of 'Variety' thought the film was well cast and that some of the young actors were impressive in their efforts to flesh out their thin roles.
