It Happened Again!

  (bloody-disgusting.com)


SLEEPAWAY CAMP 3:TEENAGE WASTELAND-1989-Angela (Pamela Springsteen) returns. This time she kills a girl going to a sleep away camp and impersonates her (she runs the girl over with a garbage truck in broad daylight and no one notices). There are two groups at the camp: one of "privileged" kids and one of snotty street punks. They're all jerks. And Michael J. Pollard is one of the camp owners! Angela's first murder is by giving a reporter tainted cocaine. The most gruesome but funny death is when she puts the female owner neck deep in a garbage pit then runs over her head with a lawn mower! Although most of the deaths are pretty macabre. The end sets a sequel that fortunately was never made. 

Kudos to director Michael Simpson for giving up on this misguided series which some see as a black comedy. I see it as junk...

Thanks for reading!

PS: I just read there is a part 4 so beware!

Unhappy Sequel

SLEEPAWAY CAMP 2: UNHAPPY CAMPERS -1988-The little girl/boy murderer from the original is back but now she's Angela (Pamela Springsteen) a woman thanks to an operation she had at the insane asylum. She now works at a camp for her Uncle John (Walter Gotell). She's cheerful but strict and goes off when she catches the overage dorks fooling around. Only Molly (Rene Estevez) seems to like her. When John fires her she really goes berserk and kills everyone including two young kids. 

This typical '80's slasher movie with death by burning and latrine has a terrible metal hair band soundtrack but slips a Dead Milkmen song into one scene. Producer/director Michael Simpson also made a sequel.

Thanks for reading!
