How to watch Killer Camp online: stream the horror reality show from anywhere
Homage to 80s slasher flicks is about to hit US TV screens.
It's been a low-key hit in the UK, now this 80s horror movie inspired reality show is about to shock its way onto US TV screens - read on to find out how to watch Killer Camp online and stream whodunnit-style show from anywhere in the world.
Killer Camp premieres on Thursday, July 16 at 8pm ET/PT in the US. It's hosted by The CW with the five-episode series currently scheduled to keep the same slot every week. In parts of the country, The CW can be enjoyed with a Hulu + Live TV package - where a FREE 7-day trial is currently on offer.
Originally airing in the UK last year, this campy twist on the reality format owes a heavy debt to 80s video nasties Friday the 13th and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
The show brings together eleven British strangers that have been led to believe that they're taking part in a fun, somewhat less blood-thirsty show called “Summer Camp”. The group, however, are in fact actually participating in a horror-themed whodunnit called “Killer Camp".
Presented by comedian Bobby Mair, contestants earn cash by avoiding being "killed" and eliminated from the game.
Each night at the camp sees one contestant ‘murdered’ in hilariously gruesome style – with the remaining campers tasked with trying to work out who among the group is the secret murderer that is controlling evil camp handyman Bruce - a Leatherface lookalike who carries out the bloody hilarious murder scenes.
If you're looking to stream the gore-fest, then read on as we detail how you can watch Killer Camp online, no matter where you are in the world.
