Camping del terrore, also known as Body Count in the UK and The Eleventh Commandment in the USA, is a 1987 slasher/Horror film directed by Ruggero Deodato and filmed in Italy.

Camping del terrore was one of the numerous sub-categorized "backwoods slashers" that occurred during the eighties made famous by Friday the 13th franchise and The Burning, along with such others as The Final Terror, The Prey, Just Before Dawn, Don't Go in the Woods and Madman.

Rather similar to other Italian Giallo, it starred Charles Napier and David Hess, and centered on a group of campers being preyed on by "The Shaman", who is half-man, half-beast.
