5.0 out of 5 stars a great sequel, October 22, 2008

This review is from: Return to Sleepaway Camp (DVD)

I've been very excited about watching this, ever since I heard about it. I checked the IMDB almost daily for updates, and was constantly irritated that the release date kept getting pushed back. But I finally got to see it.

There's no cold open, straight to the credits. When I was watching the credits, they looked really good, and I was thinking to myself, "Wow, this is going to be a real movie. High production quality, etc." Then, the actual movie started, and it looked just like the last one.

I enjoyed this movie a lot. I thought they did a great job of making it a sequel, which is hard to do when the first one was made 25 years ago. It has the same feel, same style of writing, like it was made a year or two later.

Isaac Hayes is an awful actor, and Jonathan Tierston has only done one other thing aside from the first one, and that was in 1987. He is definitely not an actor. Vincent Pastore does a really good job. I was disappointed that Aunt Martha didn't make a cameo. She did something in 2006, but other than that, only the original.

If you were a fan of the first movie, I think you'll totally dig this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't Be Mislead, September 7, 2008

This review is from: Return to Sleepaway Camp (DVD)

Be Careful! I just noticed a review on here stating that this movie was the full version of that craptacular "Sleepaway Camp: The Survivor" footage that was an extra in some of the Survival Kit Box Sets. This movie has absolutely NO relation to that. Return To Sleepaway Camp is a direct sequel to the unforgettable original Sleepaway Camp. Ronnie and Ricky are back and so are a bunch of gruesome murders at camp. This was directed by the writer/director of the original Sleepaway Camp and is a welcome return to fun who-done-it slasher movies!

This review is from: Return to Sleepaway Camp (DVD)

25 years after the horrific massacre that happened in Camp Arawak then in 1988 and 1989 there were other massacres in other camps in the New York state done by Angela Baker (Felissa Rose) as she has been confined to a asylum with her cousin Ricky (Jonathan Tierson) now is a construction worker. At Camp Manabe, the kids and teens have great fun even if it's sex and drugs, they do someones get provided by supervison by Counselers including Ronnie (Paul DeAngelo). However there is this tormented teen boy named Alan (Michael Gibney) who gets picked on all the time and sometimes bullies some of the campers, he feels like a social reject that just doesn't belong to camp. However some of the campers and staff members begin to be disappear one by bloody one leaving them as dead bodies, Ronnie is reminded of the horrible murders that happened when he worked at Camp Arawak. Who is this mysterious killer? could be Alan on the verge for revenge, some member of the staff or could be it Angela Baker back for crazy revenge?

Exciting and vibrant comeback for the Sleepaway Camp franchise! this new installment is a reunion movie with some of the original characters and cast members. Issac Hayes in one of his final roles co-stars as a Chef whom is a homage to his "South Park" character, this one won't disappoint fans of the series including the cult original as it offers sexy girls, gory violence like the memorable gasoline with drugs death sequence that has to be seen to believed, decent acting, and of course a suprise ending just like the original as this is the best sequel of the franchise. Hell even the original's writer/director/producer Robert Hiltzik has returned.

This DVD offers a few good extras like Behind The Scenes featurette, interviews, Photo Gallery and music video.
