Review of Sleepaway Camp (1983) by Billy P — 18 Mar 2009
As I read reviews for this movie it makes me think "wow, everyone agrees that this movie truly tricks everyone into thinking it's going to be predictable". Nope, this was one of the best slasher movies I've ever seen.
I was pretty sure I knew who the slasher was, and then they tricked me into thinking it was someone else. Now, this movie wasn't that frightening to begin with, it had no nudity(well at least no female nudity, and probably a good thing cause I think a lot of the cast was under aged), but it had enough gore to satisfy a splatter-film goer.
The best part of this movie is the ending, the ending is so horrific and completely messed up that (I just watched it for the first time last night) it gave me really weird nightmares. Which isn't good because I have began to get night terrers a lot these days.
Slow, but the ending's worth the wait. Scary as hell at the end.
