i think the lead should have been earnest p worrell. Your right the hero guy should have died first and earnest had to take over.And in the end Dr. otto should have been earnest cousin or something. but for a limited budget independant sci fi film it's ok. I'd give it a passing c-. I like The Dr. otto from hey vern it's earnest myself.
If you're expecting an Ernest film you'll be severely disappointed, but if you're expecting JIm Varney this film is hilarious. As for the protagonist being annoying - that's the point he's an absolute coward, I found him very funny, but not intentionally. If you appreciate movies like this for what they are you will get a lot of entertainment out of it.
Like you, Lee, I wasn't sold on "Dr. Otto." It had its moments, sure, but overall it wasn't that good.
His TV series "Hey Vern, It's Ernest" was great. And his characters Auntie Nelda, Dr. Otto and the Bucket-headed robot were in it, too. I wish that would come out on DVD.
You say the movie was a "disappointment" as if a Jim Varney movie is something to be looked forward to. I'm not saying that he isn't funny or talented, but calling his movies B movies would be to considerate as far as productions go.
I think this guy is taking this WAYYYY to seriously.

I own this movie on DVD. Very weird film, but I liked it. Mostly because I am a big fan of the Ernest films.

Strange guy, strange film. Yet pretty interesting, if I say so myself.

There's a bootleg on a site called ioffer, but $23 for 13 episodes is just scummy.

I remember watchin' those movies when I was younger. RIP Jim Varney
This is semi-random, but the guy from Dirty Jobs always reminds me of Ernest. Haha.

Looks like another guilty pleasure for me. If only for the thought of Ernest as a villain.

As much as I love the movie, Ernest Goes to Camp could be the most homo-erotic things I've ever seen.
Just take a closer look.

His point is that it was disappointing because Varney was hardly in it.
