This is a good family comedy with Michael J. Fox. Dont confuse it with the other Poison Ivy movie with Drew Barrymore. The Michael J. Fox comedy Poison Ivy came out in 1985. It centers around a kids camp counselor (Fox) who gets a secret crush with another counselor (played by Nancy McKeon from the TV show Facts of Life). This movie is currently only available used but is worth getting if you are a Micharl J. Fox fan.

I picked this movie up at a discount store years and years ago.
In fact, it's one of my only reasons to hold on to a VCR.

Michael J. Fox plays a camp counselor with his eyes set on Nancy McKeon's camp nurse.
Other plots center around the campers in Fox's bunk. We have the introverted writer, the fat kid, the golden boy, the sports star...
It's a seriously charming movie. It's as dumb as any made-for-TV production is, but there's so much delight inserted into this movie that it falls into the category of movies like The Goonies and Fast Times at Ridgemont High. If you grew up with it, the movie holds so much importance that it's hard to forget - or even think critically about.

I wish this movie would get released on DVD. But in the meantime, at least it's out there on VHS.

I haven't seen this movie in 24 years! So happy to have found it on amazon and in great condition! Brought back fond memories. So happy to have it again.

I love this movie brings me to being a kid at summer camp. Micheal J. Fox and Nancy McKeon are really good. I can't watch it because I don,t have VCR. I don't want to risk a VCR eating it up either. Please somebody put on DVD.

This movie takes me back to my childhood. It's fun and my children loved it as well. I love Nancy McKeon and Michael J. Fox. Jump back into the eighties and have fun!

A great, feel good movie for the whole family. And yes, totally 80's ;o)
