Summer Camp Nightmare

It's 80's cheese nothing is better then that

Cover art and title suggests a horror film, but it's far from that! It's a summer camp gone rogue! This movie shows what happens when the inmates run the asylum. Another forgotten 80's "B" movie. Good cast , Chuck Connors plays an old school stern camp leader/counselor who is dethroned by a bunch of rowdy teens who decide to change all the rules, or pretty much just do away with them altogether.

Chuck Connors as a brutal camp leader in this silly teen cheese horror pic.

If you come into this thinking it will be a horror film, you will be disappointed. Such is the circumstances that happened to me.

Government cuts can have a disastrous effect on social programs. One such example is at Camp North Pines where lower funding has left the camp with fewer counsellors. There is some immediate chafing against Mr. Warren's rigid rules, which becomes a full revolt after he cancels the dance and talent show and decides the boys would not be allowed to see the girls at the neighbouring camp for the rest of the summer. I expected this to be a slasher film but it wasn't and was pleasantly surprised that it was a serious attempt to make a good film.

A very cheesy but decent mid 80s summer camp action drama. It breaks the mold from the Friday The 13th and Sleepaway Camp clones and does its own thing. Having more in common with the Lord of the flies more than anything when the boys at this camp rebel against their creepy pedo camp counselor.Its full of the right amount of laughs and suspense to hold your interest despite its dated music and somewhat shitty dialog. The acting in this can be cringe worthy at times,not to mention the cheesy talent show, but all in all its worth a watch for some 80s nostalgia. Its also good for someone who's a fan of summer camp themed movies who want alitlte something different. This is pretty much like the 90s kids movie Camp Nowhere mixed with Lord Of The Flies with winning results.

A stupid plot,poor execution,and of course the acting!!

This is a good movie! Not what I expected when I saw the title. Hope they release this on DVD.

i saw this on youtube and i so wish i could go back and take back those 89 minutes of my life watching this horrible movie the quality is from like 40's the acting completely sucks the characters in this film are stupid everyone about this is stupid it's the worst film i have ever seen it is an extreme insult to call this a film and i love horror movies it seems this movie was bad on purpose and I'm being very generous giving this a half of star

Lord of the Flies gets a campground setting and an anti authoritarian streak to it. I enjoyed it as a kid, but it's still a low budget affair that is far from essential viewing. It is fun to see former Chicago Cub Chuck Connors as the camp director, whose character is not long for this Earth.
