This is why I love films from the 80s, their a lot of fun!

A special shout out to Youtube channel, Carnage Counts for showing a body count of this film. Because of them I discovered Turkey Shoot.

The plot is simple, a bunch of people are sent a prison camp that's ruled by a elite society and choices which prisoners to hunt for spot. The main character, Paul who's escaped prison camps is a resistance fighter who plans not only to escape the prison camp but free the prisoners. Along the way he begins a close bound with Chris, a store owner who was arrest after interfering with the police.

Their some gore and brutal kills in this film along with a epic prison break/shootout at the end! While this film is short but once the action starts it's a lot of fun! And I enjoyed this a lot more then the terrible 2014 remake of Turkey Shoot or under it's alternate title, Elimination Game.

And don't take it too seriously. Just sit back, turn off your brain and enjoy the show!

A dystopia culling its unwanted citizens isn't an overly original story set up. This film does it alright.

There is an obligatory shower scene to check off the nudity exploitation for prison film cravers. There is however a rather painful lack of other sexual content. There is a lot of almost rape, torture, abuse, murder, gore, and general nastiness.

The film goes a very long time teasing a hot lesbian rape murder but chooses to leave that on the cutting room floor. A few of the kills are a little creative. There is almost a morals lesson buried here. But in general it devolves into the anarchs revolting against the system and sort of getting away with it aside from a few bombs.

Wonderful to see this film released on Blu Ray at last and totally uncut as well. The picture quality is excellent. A gruesome, violent, gory and hugely entertaining slaughter fest from the land of Oz, I won't waste your time with an in depth review, I'll just say if you like films like Hard Target, Surviving The Game, Hunter's Blood etc then you will go crazy over this one. Stay well away if you're squeamish though. Although it originally came out in 1982, it's still pretty nasty even by today's standards. I personally can't recommend it highly enough. It's no film for chickens.

I again give credit to Good Bad Flicks for his praise on his YouTube channel, this site should try contacting him and maybe doing business with him. This is perhaps one of the best movies to come out of Australia, should be watched just hard to describe this post nuclear war movie.

Sometime in the future set in a totalitarian society, defiant citizens are rounded up and categorized as deviants. Those labelled as such are interned in sadistic and barbaric behaviour modification camps ruled by tyrants. Welcome to camp Thatcher named after its leader. The rules of the camp are simple, obedience to its leader and the state are mandatory. The camp has just received three new deviants in need of behaviour modification and their life is about to get very difficult. They're about to be introduced to the depraved, sadistic and brutal world of camp Thatcher.

It's clear after the three new prisoners enter the camp that they are there for more than behaviour modification. Warden Thatcher makes an offer to the new prisoners that if they agree to be hunted by him and his sadistic friends they will win their freedom and return to society for good. Savage beatings, exploding heads, Olivia Hussey's naked breasts. Let the Turkey Shoot begin!

Turkey Shoot AKA Escape 2000 and Blood Camp Thatcher is a fun and entertaining movie. Presented on Blu-ray from Severin films totally uncut and in HD for the very first time its truly a visual and audio treat for fans of this film. Turkey Shoot courtesy of Severin films was released Sept 8/15, it runs 93 minutes long and it's a region free Blu-ray. I had no problems with playback on my region 1 player.

Video quality: 4.5/5

Severin films has to be commended for their efforts in bringing fans this film on Blu-ray. The new1080p transfer in 2.35:1 from the original vault negative has been fully restored. There is very little in way of print damage that I could see. The image is crisp and clear and the colors really pop, especially the yellow jumps suits worn by the prisoners in camp Thatcher. The level of grain seems natural looking and picture contrast is pretty consistent throughout. I couldn't believe how good this Blu-ray looked.

Sound quality: 3.5/5

Turkey Shoot offers a DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0 mono track as the only sound option which was a little disappointing in my opinion. Don't get me wrong, the DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0 soundtrack does a decent job where the film's dialogue, effects and musical score are concerned but it could have been so much better with a DTS-HD Master 5.1 track. The film also contains a rather quirky music score courtesy of Brian May guitarist for Queen.

5.0 out of 5 stars "Disobedience is treason, treason is a crime, crime will be punished!"
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 14, 2012

In the near future, people that are deemed to be "social deviants" are sent to prison camps for re-education and behaviour modification. The film opens with three new arrivals, Paul (Steve Railsback), Chris (Olivia Hussey) and Rita (Lynda Stoner). As soon as they arrive they're met by Chief Guard Ritter (Roger Ward) and later witness him beat a female prisoner into a bloody mess, something that not only seems to be acceptable to Camp Master Charles Thatcher (Michael Craig), but endorsed. After the three put up with several weeks of brutal treatment from Thatcher and his men, they accept Thatcher's invitation to participate in a deadly game of cat and mouse. Thatcher and a few selected others will hunt them down on the island and kill them, but if they survive until sundown they'll be set free. It's obvious there's no way Thatcher will stick to his word, so the prisoners attempt to fight back and kill the hunters.

Steve Railsback is a very likeable lead, something that wasn't too difficult when you consider that almost everyone else at the camp are perfect "love to hate them" characters. He's definitely the main star, and carries the film extremely well. Railsback is a method actor, something that really annoyed Michael Craig in particular. From what several people connected with the film have said, Olivia Hussey was extremely shy, miserable and upset during filming believing that Australia's dangerous wildlife would hurt her. This made shooting her on location very difficult, but it works for the character she was playing. Whenever she looks upset, it looks completely real. Lynda Stoner seems quite disinterested most of the film, she was apparently very difficult on set and looks like she would rather have been anywhere else. Michael Craig and Roger Ward are great as Thatcher and Ritter, they seem to be having a blast playing the bad guys. There's some really fun performances from the rest of the cast as well, especially from a couple of the hunters. It was a very troubled shoot, so I think a lot of credit has to go to director Brian Trenchard-Smith who still managed to make an exciting, fun film. He's probably best known for the film he made after Turkey Shoot called BMX Bandits with Nicole Kidman, he also directed the underrated Dead-End Drive In and Night Of The Demons 2. There's a bit of nudity, some pretty decent gore including a brilliant head explosion and the music is great.

Apart from the problems with Hussey and Stoner on set, the film also lost $700,000 from its budget just before shooting began when an investor pulled out. This led to the first 15 pages of the script being torn out and a 4 page helicopter chase scene being removed, the shoot was also reduced from 44 days down to 30. It's quite obvious from the interviews on the extras that the film was initially meant to be a much more serious film, with a much larger social commentary. For the first 15 minutes or so it's still quite a serious film, but we're then introduced to a wolfman wearing a waistcoat and top hat from a circus and it becomes clear that they decided to just have fun instead. I was initially shocked the first time I saw the film and the wolfman appeared, suddenly it went from a serious, brutal, nasty film to a film where suddenly I knew anything could and probably would happen. Even Thatcher's name wasn't in there by mistake, this was the early '80s and the iron fisted warden was a pop at Margaret Thatcher. The film was even released in the UK as Blood Camp Thatcher, it was called Escape 2000 in the US despite the trailer claiming that it takes place in 1995.

The dvd from Optimum has a beautiful widescreen print, I've seen a few blu-rays that don't look as good as this. The sound is fine, everything's clear and there's no hiss or other problems. There's a 10 minute featurette which is Brian Trenchard-Smith talking about the film and its problems, there's then a very interesting 24 minute retrospective with several of the actors discussing the film. I actually got a little annoyed watching it, Lynda Stoner clearly hates the film and regrets being in it, she sure doesn't waste any opportunity to let us know how disgusting and pathetic she thinks it is. For an actress that never really went on to do anything, I would have thought she'd get a kick out of this film becoming a cult classic and it's surely the film most people will remember her from. Thankfully Roger Ward and Michael Craig come across much better and seem to have fond memories of the film, unlike the eternally ungrateful Stoner. There's no subtitles.

A lot of people think of Turkey Shoot as a "so bad it's good" movie, I don't. I genuinely love the movie and think it's one of the very best Ozploitation movies ever made, especially considering the amount of problems the film had prior to and during shooting. It mixes horror, prison drama, comedy and action together to make one of the most fun films of the '80s. Whether you love it because you think it's awful, or simply love it because of its over the top awesomeness, everyone should give it a go if you can just accept films as pure entertainment.

This is not high art, this is an oz-sploitation film stacked with nudity and brutal violence and a hairy cannibalistic circus freak slammed by the critics of the day but has gained a cult following over the years since. Heavily cut in the UK by 6 mins on its original release, cuts were finally waived in VIPCO's 2003 DVD release. This Severin Blu-ray is region free so will play on UK Blu-ray players is excellent the picture quality is top notch and features including audio commentary extended interviews from the Not Quite Hollywood documentary plus more is an excellent addition to your collection.

The acting is bad, the production level is embarrassing, but there's something about it that's kind of great (the "I am deviant" scene is a highlight for me but that's because I live for that sort of stuff). If you like The Most Dangerous Game, watch this! For anyone who is a fan of Dead End Drive-In or women is prison films. If you didn't like Mad Max, you'll hate Turkey Shoot
