No script, no editing and no budget. The entire movie was probably shot on the first take. The plot: everyone in the movie has a machine gun.
There's a reason why there are no other reviews for this movie here (besides the fact that probably no-one's ever seen it): you have to write at least 10 lines in order to be able to submit your comment. THE SCRIPT OF WAR CAMP ISN'T EVEN 10 LINES LONG!!!
That said, I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. A strong contender for Best of the Worst(TM).

Completely awful tripe gives a whole new meaning to the concept of a movie being so bad that it is actually good. Like the other two folks who have reviewed this movie here have stated before, the plot is basically everyone gets a machine gun and runs around the jungle shooting. It comes off as like a live action video game, cheesy as hell, action and gunshots galore. The copy of the film I watched had Greek or Russian subtitles to it, but the dialogue mainly consists of "Ahhhhh" or "Eeeaaaaghhh" the entire time. I couldn't really tell if the film was supposed to have been originally filmed in English or not, although it hardly matters at all because the majority of dialoue is screaming and gunfire. There is enough bad acting and horribly cheesy action to satisfy even the most hardcore bad film geek around. With that said, I am forced to keep with the average rating here at IMDb, and give 'Warcamp' the 7 out of 10 that it deserves.
WARCAMP ----- 7/10.
WARCAMP ----- 7/10.
To properly sum up this film, its about mercenaries hired to rescue a few American soldiers held captive in a P.O.W camp whose plane was shot down over the Vietnam jungles and who also carry documents that are plans for dropping an H-bomb on Hoinai.
The film opens with a convoy (Of which our heroes are apart of) being attacked by the Vietcong in a very lengthy gun fight where everybody grabs a machine gun, run around the jungle and shoot each other, the second half starts to tell the story and the final act is another machine gun battle where of course everyone grabs a machine gun, runs around the jungle and shoot each other, however the gun battles are not random they do happen for a reason but otherwise this is pretty much what this film is.
The characters are basically introduced as is and are given a little bit of development to establish their role in the film but the acting wasn't great, I saw this film dubbed in English even though it sometimes appeared if this was an English language movie, the dubbing itself was a bit off, the acting ranged from average to terrible (The main villain was terrible) the dialog was really cheesy at times.
Given this came out in 1988 it actually looks and sounds older and despite its flaws it was watchable, I wasn't bored or annoyed for one moment, in terms of recommending it I'd say bare in mind it is an old film, it is clearly low budget and the dubbing isn't perfect, otherwise it does pass the time rather nicely and its one of those films you can't really spoil for anyone, you can know the whole plot and you'd still be able to watch it.
