Martes 13: día de sangre

We're no longer going by the name of Camp Rolling Hills. All respect is to Angela (Pamela Springsteen) Baker. The camp is now titled Camp New Horizons.

This time, Angela changes here identity to a New York under privilege female by the name of Maria Nicastro. Angela soon dispatches Nicastro by way of a garbage truck and takes her identity, so that she can be a camper at Camp Rolling Hills aka Camp New Horizons. It's the same location, but it is yet under another name. This is due to the "MURDERS," as Lily, the camp co-owner would put it.

Married couple Lily and Herman, who is played by Micheal J. Pollard, are the camp owners and they make a desperate move to try and bring some inner city under privilege teens together for an experience in sharing.

It probably would have worked, except for the fact that the real Maria Nicastro won't be showing up. Instead, Angela Baker returns for yet another bloodbath of slaying.

This one has the same campy humor, creative deaths and beautiful babes, one which would include Jill (Night of the Demons) Terashita. Again, I'm not sure whether I like this one more of SC2 more. Nonetheless, check out this sleeper of a slasher flick. 10/10

i originally saw this film back in 1989 when i was 14,i recently purchased it on video over the internet purely for nostalgia reasons!watching this film now,i can see how badly acted it really is ,the script is awfull!the gore score is pretty non existent thanks to censorship on both sides of the atlantic!BUT on the plus side it's trashy campy atmosphere does make the film watchable!pamela springsteen is perfect as serial killer angela(although you can see her losing interest in the character in this one)however if you like cheesy 80's slashers you can do a lot worse than this!check out part 2 first,it's much better!part 1 is due on dvd in july!maybe these will follow!

Angela (Pamela Springsteen) returns to the same camp where she slaughtered the inhabitants the year before under an assumed identity. Renamed Camp New Horizons, the coordinators seek to bring together privileged kids from the suburbs & small towns with underprivileged kids from the big cities. Michael J. Pollard appears as one of the camp counselors. The other counselor is reminiscent of Paula Dean.

"Sleepaway Camp III: Teenage Wasteland" (1989) is a rehash of the previous film (1988) with the same director/writer team and star (Springsteen), but of course a whole new cast of victims. The film even features cuts by the same semi-obscure 80's bands: Anvil ("Wild Eyes"), Obsession ("Methods of Madness" & "Killer Elite") and John Altyn ("Sleepaway"). The main difference is a focus on tent camping and the mixing of "rich" kids with "poor."

The movie's fun, but it lacks the mojo of the previous film. There's less depth as far as human interest goes: The characters and their relations are so exaggerated it's campy, which kills any realism. Yes, I realize it's an amusing 80's slasher flick set at a youth camp, but the two preceding movie's included gems in the coming-of-age context, which is largely lacking here. Still, "Sleepaway Camp III" has its entertaining moments. Tracy Griffith as redhead Marcia and Stacie Lambert as Jan are highlights.

The film runs 1 hour, 20 minutes, and was shot in Bremen, Georgia, about an hour's drive west of Atlanta (the same as Part II); with the opening scenes shot in Atlanta.

GRADE: C

I liked "Sleepaway camp" because the death scenes were original. There's also hardly any slasher flick out there where the woman is the killer. In the tradition of the "Friday the 13th" films, this one is right on top as one of the best slasher flicks in the genre. I even liked it more than "Scream" and "Scream 2". (I haven't seen this movie in a long, long time, but I do remember loving it)

im gonna keep it short and simple Sleepaway Camp 3 Teenage Wasteland is a great horror movie. it's not scary at all nor his the whole trilogy. but Pamela Springsteen aka Angela is just so great, the kills are original and she is just too funny, once again you will find your self hoping she kills everyone. all i will say is if you can find the Sleepaway camp trilogy rent them. part 2 and 3 are the best. long live Angela i give Sleepaway Camp 3 8/10
