Sleepaway Camp
The trilogy of SLEEPAWAY CAMP horror movies.
SLEEPAWAY CAMP
What superficially appears to be an ordinary '80s horror flick is actually, upon deeper inspection, something much more bizarre. Angela's family is killed in a boating accident and she gets sent away for the summer to Camp Arawak. Employees and campers start dropping like flies in increasingly odd 'accidents'. Hints of incest, transsexuality, and homo-eroticism lie beneath the surface in this story of a summer camp with a twist--the gob-smacking revelation of the murderer's identity.
SLEEPAWAY CAMP 2
Angela's back in this sequel to the 1983 cult favourite. It's five years later and the grisly murders that terrorised Camp Arawak have become the favourite ghost story around Camp Rolling Hills. Unfortunately for these campers, Angela (Pamela Springsteen, sister of Bruce), is now a counsellor at Camp Rolling Hills who is eager to mortally reprimand any of the naughty young campers who break her rules. Full of gratuitous nudity, bad haircuts, and even worse dialogue, SLEEPAWAY CAMP 2 is an entertaining sequel, though it is much different than the creepy original.
SLEEPAWAY CAMP 3
Angela returns once again in this third installment of the popular SLEEPAWAY CAMP series. Here, Angela joins Camp New Horizon, an organization that brings rich and poor teenagers together for a weekend of sharing, after she kills her lookalike, and takes her place. It isn't long before the other campers begin ridiculing Angela and history begins to repeat itself. Just as entertaining as the second film in the series, TEENAGE WASTELAND follows the lead of its predecessor and places the emphasis on campy fun, gore, and gratuitous nudity rather than the creepy atmosphere of the original.

Unfairly dismissed by some as a Friday The 13th rip-off, this rarely-seen 80s horror has merits in its own right and is a must for fans of the genre.

Not the least bit scary, but very laughable! If you prefer your movie to have a solid plot, good creep factor and significantly decent acting...then PLEASE ...
