Title: Some originality lifts generic slasher film
Product review: Eight years after a summer camp boating accident leaves a man dead, two of his kin - smartmouthed Ricky (Jonathan Tierston) and his introverted cousin Angela (Felissa Rose) return to Camp Arawak. The other campers (who have the worst attitudes since "The Bad News Bears") start to give Angela a hard time and Ricky swears vengeance. Soon after, the kids, the director, and the pedophile cook fall victim to a young killer. Despite the tepid story, slasher fans should be pleased by the grisly deaths and surprise ending. Film has cult following, although I'm not as sold on this movie as they are. Included is the theatrical trailer, and commentary with director Robert Hiltzik, star Felissa Rose, and Sleepaway Camp buff Jeff Hayes.
