Being a fan of the Sleepaway Camp series, I stumbled upon this release having never heard of it. I thought it would be fun, knowing it would be at least partly bad (in the good way). Boy was I wrong.
This movie is grating, the acting is atrocious, and the pacing will break the patience of any movie viewer. Not only do we know who the disguised Angela is all along, but we WANT for all the kids to die because there are few likable characters in this movie. There are some very trying moments in the movie where we want it to move on, but it dwells on boring predictable scene after scene.
The casting of Isaac Hayes as "Chef" (hmmm...) is the only breath of fresh air in the movie because Isaac Hayes doesn't even have to try; he's already a better actor than any of the *real* actors in the film.
This movie will bore newbies and disappoint true fans of the Sleepaway Camp trilogy. It makes Part III look like Chinatown. This review is merely to serve as a warning. Spare the 2 hours of your life and watch something else- anything else. However, if you like your movies neither funny nor scary nor entertaining, and your favorite film is Scream (1981), then this is for you.
