Sleepaway Camp

Horror85 min

Years after a boating accident kills her family, shy Angela Baker is sent to Camp Arawak with her cousin Ricky for a summer that’s supposed to feel normal again. Felissa Rose is the withdrawn Angela, and Jonathan Tiersten’s Ricky stays close as she struggles to fit in among the other campers and staff. Then a string of bizarre, increasingly violent “accidents” begins to tear through the camp, turning the usual routines of swimming, flirting, and lakeside games into something much more ominous.
