Classic cheesy horror with Mullets,
By
This review is from: Sleepaway Camp 2: Unhappy Campers (DVD)
The chick on the cover isnt in the movie at all lets just get that out of the way.This movie is just plain fun, lots of boobs, counselors and campers with serious mullets and really bad effects makeup. the continuity is lacking and so is the writing for that matter BUT I LOVE THIS MOVIE> because I love the "campy" aspect no pun intended. Angela is back on this movie but this time she isnt the wallflower quiet camper that secretly kills her fellow campers and the staff, no this time around she is UBER-COUNSELOR!!! She sings Kum-bay-yah and tries to keep her cabin full of girls(who are to freaking old to be campers) from losing thier shirts, literally, at all moments of the day. She clashes with other staff members because she sticks to the rules, and she Kills when she sees them being broke, She is the "angel of death" only slaughtering those who deserve to be killed. Angela practically skips through each murder with a giant grin and a biting humorous line or two. You want these brats to get offed, especially Allie the wet t-shirt, nappy-headed slut. This film outdoes the first one by a mile, so go rent a cabin, eat s'mores, grab your deep woods off and have a good time with this one!

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Sleepaway Camp 2: Unhappy Campers (DVD)
If anyone plans on buying this copy without the original cover...STOP!!!! tHIS IS THE WORST and most PITIFUL transfer i have ever seen. It looks like a direct transfer from a crappy video copy. Plus numerous killing seens are completly butchered and censored!! I love this film but if you are planning on buying it buy the one with the original cover of the girl with the backback. Solid widescreen transfer looks excellent and all kill scenes are fully intact!

Sleepaway Camp 2: Unhappy Campers,
This review is from: Sleepaway Camp 2: Unhappy Campers (DVD)
Sequel to the 1983 cult classic "Sleepaway Camp". If you are not familar with the first movie it is a must see! (See my review.)
This installment takes place five years after the grisly murders at Camp Arawak. We are now at Camp Rolling Hills and Angela is BACK! She has escaped from an asylum and has shown up as a camp counselor. Everything has to be "perfect" for her, and you will find out if you break the rules you will get punished! Lots of gore to delight the horror fan. If you liked the first movie I would highly suggest seeing this one.

This review is from: Sleepaway Camp 2: Unhappy Campers (DVD)
The cover is not part of the movie,.but the story is in the same line as the part 1 when Angela and her cousin are campers and young kids,.in this one she is a camp counselor or something equally odd for a nut like her,.is very,very entertaining,.most of the camper girls show plenty of breast,.very bloody and the crimes just keep on coming,.each crime is kind of creative in execution I don't see a lot of especial effects,.is not very low budget,.is one of those movies that accomplishes it's combination of action/horror.erotic film,.I Love it.!

I have always been a fan of the Sleepaway Camp series, and I don't care what anyone says about Pamela Springsteen, she makes Angela worth watching! This is the typical story of a camp in the woods with a killer on the loose, much like Friday the 13th, but it has its elements of comedy and Angela can certainly get creative with how to punish the campers and the bad counselors. The third Sleepaway camp also has its great elements, pitting up-town snot kids with children from gangs and ghettos .. Definitely amusing with Pamela Springsteen as well. The best two simply because of her I think. Of course, you should certainly start with the original, and Return to Sleepaway Camp is worth the hour or so. I would recommend the series to any lover of 80s horror.

"I hear the scary campfire stories told in this camp are very realistic...",
This review is from: Sleepaway Camp 2: Unhappy Campers (DVD)
Just because Camp Rolling Hills is 60 some odd miles away from the infamous Camp Arawak, where a slew of murders were committed by a transgendered troubled teen five years ago, doesn't mean the same can possibly happen in this particular camp... could it? Considering camp counsellor Angela's over the top dedication in running a tight ship, it most certainly could... A large increase in ta-ta exposure, a gory variety of killings and an additional sprinkling of comedy makes this sequel an improvement over its predecessor. Just don't get this Legacy Entertainment copy of it! For some reason, all the background music has been muted or highly muffled from this print. This makes moments like, for example, a female camper telling her peer to "Turn up that song!" and starts moving to the beat of... nothing..., highly unbearable. The omitted soundtrack also interferes with certain sounds pertaining to the action on hand. Personally, I've never heard of (pun partially intended) a chainsaw with a silencer in existence. Add insult to injury when the DVD back cover shows the names of bands that have songs included in the movie that you never hear. 6.25/10 (for the movie itself) 0/10 (for the Legacy release in and of itself)

Not too bad,

The Mullet factor in this movie propells it from 2 to 3 stars. This movie is your typical 80's slasher flick that adds some well placed humor to some very bloddy scenes. Pam Springsteen is good in the movie and actually makes this movie work.
As one would expect most people die but it is definitely worth watching how creative Pam S. is in killing them. All in all this movie is worth watching but beware that this is part 2 in a 3 part series so you should watch 1 and 3 to fully appreciate the entire story.

Entertaining sequel to one of the greatest slasher movies of all time!,
By
This review is from: Sleepaway Camp 2: Unhappy Campers (DVD)
When I put this DVD in, I wasn't really expect much. All I expected was a crappy sequel to a really great film, since alot of slasher sequels aren't that good. Well, I was pleasantly suprised because what I got was a highly enjoyable late 80's horror cheesefest that all fans of corny slasher flicks can appreciate.
Basically, the plot revolves around a group of kids at a camp called Rolling Hills, which is apparently 60 miles from Arawak. Well, it turnes out that Angela did her time at the mental hospital and has had a sex change operation (She used to be a boy) and is apparently "cured". Haha. Boy, were the counselors that hired her wrong. Pretty soon, kids begin to start missing. Angela claims that she's sent them home for behaving badly, when really, she's been brutally murdering them in painful, gruesome ways. No one knows this, and of course, they believe her when she tells them she sent 'em home. Well, when more and more kids keep getting "sent home", the camp counselors get suspicious and fire Angela. Of course, Angela runs off into the forest and to the abandoned cabin where she likes to hang out. One of the remaining teenagers decides that she wants to try and cheer her up, and grabs her boyfriend and has him help her. Well, when they reach Angela's hangout spot, they soon find out her disgustingly horrible secret and now both of their lives are in danger. Will they make it out alive? Watch the movie and find out, damn it! Well, there's a run-down of the main premise of this short, but incredibly entertaining bloodfest. Now, the story is really quite absurd. Wouldn't they check Angela's records or something before hiring her as a staff member? In real life, yes, they would have and they would have NEVER have hired her...unless they were total and complete idiots, of course. But, luckily, these counselors are idiots and we get to have a fun time watching Angela "weed out the bad kids"! The gore scenes in here weren't very graphic, but then again, the gore scenes weren't too graphic in the first one, either. You see, they didn't NEED to be gorey! And neither do the deaths in here! Oh, and if you're looking for some T&A, there's plenty of it in here. Right after the beginning credits, we see one of the young teenage girls topless because she says she likes to sleep in the nude. And there's one that just likes to act like a complete [hooker]to impress her friends and the guys, and one of the best sex scenes ever filmed happens to be in here. Yes, the sexual stuff is pretty pointless, but this is a SLASHER FILM. Most slasher films have a little bit of nudity or sex in them, to attract their younger male target audience. And of course, the girls are treated to a couple of muscular guys without any shirts on a couple of times. The acting is pretty average in here, but it's better than the performances in the first film. Pam Springstein is amazing as Angela, and I personally think she's much much better than Felissa Rose. I love the way she portrays our favorite transvestite serial killer. When she murders, she doesn't think twice about it. She just acts like it's some every day thing, and just...does it. There's no other way to explain it, she just kills 'em. Only a couple of the murders have build up to them, and yeah, I do wish there had been more build-up in this one like in the first, but oh well. I still had a great time watching this, so that doesn't matter. Overall, this isn't as good as the first one, but for some reason, it's far more entertaining. Reccomended for a Saturday night rental. Or you can just buy it if it's really really cheap, like I did. Don't forget to pop a ton of popcorn to go with it!
