Return To Sleepaway Camp 2008

Return To Sleepaway Camp
The true horror in this movie is the amount of emphasis placed on an idiotic fat kid who grates on your nerves in just about every scene that he is in. It almost made the concept of a true slasher movie fly out the window. I definitely felt the same blood pressure rise effect that real scares give you due to wanting to slap this chubby into oblivion and there were enough scenes of him getting picked on to bring that pressure back down. One of my favorite scenes were the times he met his match with the hunka-bunka chubby Afro-American gal; she was pretty cool and showed some neato spunk.
Do not expect to see a true sequel to the original three but a homage to them that must be viewed as a parody. Does anyone bother making a flick anymore that shows a booger-picking cook get his head deep-fried in a fryer or the cruelty of frogs being skinned alive? Nope.
I will say the plot is dumb and the ending was an afterthought but I wish there were more mindless flicks like this made since this is much more fun than most new horror flicks out there. That is what this is: mindless stupid slasher fun that does a wonderful job of making you want to slap half the characters and keeps you engaged in the viewing experience because of it. If you miss the late seventies or early eighties style horror movies and some honest political incorrectness this is a must see flick. If you want bad CGI, torture porn and MTV style editing this will disappoint you.
