Brains, Blood, Boomsticks, & Broods

When it comes to schlock it’s really hard to compete with what the eighties had to offer, and Sleepaway Camp is one of it’s finer achievements. As a testament, 8 out of 9 of us stayed awake the entire movie, and even the one who slept enjoyed it when he was awake. This movie truly has a little bit of everything except nudity (how much can you have when the whole film is kids?), well maybe a little.

The costumes? clothing? alone are enough reason to watch this movie, however when you throw in the 5 “guys in daisy dukes” dogpiles, one guy on guy water balloon fight, and even a prolonged baseball scene with a masturbating catcher you really can’t pass this movie up. The kill scenes are laugh out loud funny and some are even, dare I say original. And to finish it all off if everything mentioned isn’t enough, there’s a suprise ending, and no I won’t spoil it here.

The more people you have to watch this movie with the more fun it becomes. It’s rife with racism, pedophiles, homoerotic campers, amazing hair, and good times. There’s really not a reason to not watch this movie. There’s plenty to look for in the scenes like the opener where the dad on the sailboat has apparently raised two masts. If you read too many reviews though you’ll spoil the fun, so stop reading and go watch it…

4/5 Curling Irons (Because mannequin nudity isn’t real nudity)
