Oh hi,
This week on FilmSack, we pack up our emotional baggage and bus it to a late-late summer SLEEPAWAY CAMP located on Lake Mean Girls and Boys in… I’m gonna say Upstate New York? Angela.. So strike your best pants down surprised look and point your creepy uncomfortable gaze towards your favorite ad driven streaming service and get ready to make weird noises as you gobble up this 1983 Cult Classic Slasher Horror film like a midnight snack of off brand candy bars that you didn’t even know existed before this week. Haaaapppy Halllowweeeennn
Anywho, hey… you guys want to head up to the roof of our shoddily assembled camp shack and play a rousing game of roof top water balloon fight and try not to die. I’m on team skins! That means you take off your shirt for all the world to see and pray to the lake gods that you don’t slip and fall to your death. Oh look. It’s that one girl who nobody likes but some of us still want to sleep with… cause hormones and puberty… the real villain of this movie? Later… Death.
Hey Randy, how come you never take showers when the rest of us do? nooooooo puberty!
