    The third instalment in the "Sleepaway Camp" series is terrific fun, featuring another strong performance by Pamela Springsteen. It's a great shame that Springsteen decided to follow a career in photography as I would have welcomed further movies from this actress.

    "Sleepaway Ca...( read more)mp III: Teenage Wasteland" is comic horror; the bloodshed is played for laughs but there are some effective scenes. While I'm a fan of the "Friday the 13th" films, I actually find the straight-to-video thrills of Angela more entertaining.

    The always-fantastic Michael J. Pollard is suitably seedy as the counsellor with a penchant for young girls.

    This is an entertaining straight-to-video horror flick that moves at a good pace and features strong performances from all involved. With some snappy one-liners, a dark sense of humour and some amusing scenes, this is a recommended genre film.

    A couple of plot changes, but mostly the same as the second. watchable, but definitely missable.

    Pretty much on the same level as the second entry to the franchise. Decent again, but nothing special.

    Lame actors, poor editing, cheesy style... yes! we got ourselves a lovely B movie. A good one, still.

    The weakest of the Sleepaway camp series. All the humour is there, but the kill scenes have been edited badly. Show us the gore! The extra gore on the DVD isn't actually edited into the film, and must be accessed by a separate menu.

    Another decent outing with Angela again making her way into a summer camp's opening season and finding everyone there lacking. The ridiculousness factor is high, as it;s the same camp she ran amuck at LAST SUMMER, yet she has the brass balls to go right back to it for more creat...( read more)ive kills and other shenanigans.

    More boobs, more one-liners, it's a fun ride, though I have come to realize that the current DVD version is cut, containing more gore as deleted scenes rather than within the actual version of the film, which is mildly annoying.

    Rent that turkey and complete your viewing!
