Sleepaway Camp

Horror; R

1983

Good LORD this movie was mid. The only reason it got a higher score than Battle Royale was because it was actually entertaining.

So during the movie, I enjoyed my watch. It was pretty funny to laugh at the guys' authentic 80's sporting outfits because WHAT are those.

It literally was not scary at all. No jumpscares or anything. Just people calling each other names and then yelling at each other and then somebody getting killed every now and then. DURING the movie, ig I had a fine time. But girl... that ending...

The ending was literally so ass I'm sorry like I don't know what the twist had ANYTHING to do with the murders... Like ig during the 80's it would be like "woah!" but still like I have no idea why that part was even added. Like, with or without that little twist, I feel like it would've been the same movie.

That being said, ts movie got ruined by the end. I could see how it would be lowkey problematic. But ig that twist was... pretty unexpected.

Am I glad I watched it? Uhh... Will I recommend it? Uhh... Would I watch it again? That would be a definite NO.

Okay guys so here's the updated version but I took a break from this movie and honestly looking back it was one of those Type 2 Fun movies, where while watching it you might think it's mid or bad, but when you look back on it you realize that it was actually pretty okay or entertaining. Well thinking back to this movie, it was actually very entertaining. But it doesn't do a very good job of being scary, persay, which is the whole point of the movie, so in that aspect I would say it's lacking.

BUT! (and this just might be my post-movie mind) this movie was still entertaining nonetheless, and honestly I do actually think I might recommend this to a friend, and I might even watch it again! Still not a good movie though -- and the rating doesn't change either.

SPOILERED REVIEW!

FILLER TEXT

Bor that ending... Can we talk about that for a sec?

Like it didn't even make any sense. Geniunely what were they thinking? "ohhhhh Angela's a boy! This makes so much sense now!" Like??? I'm so done...

Also that one part where Angela and Paul were making out and then Angela was thinking of those 2 guys in bed like??? I was SO lost and it makes someee sense after I finished the movie but im lowkey still lost about that...

Yeah this movie was so mid negl

Favorite Character

Paul!

Near the end he got a little "eh" for some reason but in the beginning he was so sweet!

Bro him and Angela were SO cute together I can't even lie... Like awwwww! I want a Paul!!! Where's my Paul???

Anyway, he's really sweet. And I don't really know how old he is in the movie but he looks aorund my age and he's lowkey fine negl like... hear me out guys!

Anyway, I love him! He's the only nice person in this whole movie, like geniunely. Love this guy!
