A man's confrontation with a group of hippies ends in bloodshed. Now years later, a group of fun-loving friends (Jaime King, Brad Hunt, Lukas Haas) arrives for a weekend of drugs, debauchery and music near the site of the earlier massacre. However, a serial killer with an obsession about Ronald Reagan has an ax to grind with the partygoers, and he won't stop until the woods are awash with blood.

Elizabeth Weitzman New York Daily News Apr 20, 2007
1.5/4
The rambling story attempts to turn the genre on its head, but it ends up giving in to every slasher clich (Arquette himself plays a backwoods redneck). The acting ranges from abysmal to barely adequate. Go to Full Review
Justin Chang Variety Apr 20, 2007
A mostly dull-blade exercise that offers little to think or scream about. Go to Full Review
Debbie Lynn Elias Behind The Lens Nov 9, 2019
Reminiscent of the 80's horror flicks with a sharper edge, but a genre unto itself, The Tripper is a trip and a half. Go to Full Review

It's different, but is it any good? As another former President might say, "Depends on how you define 'good'." Go to Full Review
