Cheerleader Camp is really a guilty pleasure. The film is on par with Sleepaway Camp as being cleverly silly, yet somewhat scary at times. Cheerleader Camp is simply put, a fun little Horror film to watch. The film is not to be taken so seriously, and in the end, if you don't take it seriously, you'll discover that a
fine film lies beneath its veneer of B grade fair. The cast is comprised of Betsy Russell, who would later be famous for playing the wife of homicidal madman, Jigsaw in the Saw series also in this film is teenaged heartthrob Leif Garrett and Playboy centerfold, Pamela Ferrati. The cast seem like they're having fun with this film and it shows on screen. Cheerleader Camp is not for everyone, but if you like silly B grade slasher flicks, give this one a shot. It's a better film than everyone suggests it to be.
