There are great films and then there are magical films, glorious oddities that pop up sui generis out of nowhere. Sleepaway Camp falls squarely into the latter category.

Still the finest Sleepaway Camp, if only because of its memorable final shot.

Evokes a period in time before Ritalin and common sense.

Director Hiltzik is so focused on creating a twist ending that he forgets to design an actual conclusion, leaving behind a number of loose ends and unresolved plot points.

The big, infamous end reveal actually suggests the screenplay's focused on psychological damage inherent in enforcing gender roles on children.
April 28, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review… -
An atypical slasher movie that blurs the lines between high and low art, good and bad acting, male and female, proficiency and ineptitude, sophistication and primitivism.

Jun 16, 2012The ludicrous twist is all anyone ever remembers, probably because the rest of it is just plain awful.Alec B Super Reviewer

Dec 29, 2011I think this low budget slasher certainly offered a lot of shock to the audience, the twist(s) were so shocking, I loved it. A highly successful cult classic for the blood thirsty horror fans.Sylvester K Super Reviewer

Oct 10, 2011My first and hopefully only disappointment of the month, 'Sleepaway Camp' is a tawdry, sleazy slasher film without any distinguishing qualities until a mesmerizing shock-to-the-system ending that redefines everything that came before. The performances are so abysmal and amateurish that, for the majority of the film, Felissa Rose appears almost comatose and her aunt is so mannered, obnoxiously loud and theatrical that she acts as though she mistook the part for a Stanley Kubrick satire. The slice-and-dice murders are interminable and prosaic set pieces that range from boiling pots of water to shower stabbings (although a curling iron scene is hinted to be a gruesome phallic rape implement). The saving grace of this dross is the unforgettably hair-raising final shot and that feral, animalistic growl from the killer. If nothing else, the agape mouth of the killer will be imprinted in your mind while the rest of this hoary flop will wash away.Cory T Super Reviewer
