Cheer Camp Killer

I expected a bit more violence with a name like Cheer Camp Killer. For a lower budget film, it wasn't bad but this wasn't a thriller. It's a mean girls drama. There's nothing remotely thriller or violent about the whole film. I thought the acting was good for the genre (which is not thriller). It just wasn't what I was expecting. There's not so much as a nose bleed in the entire film.

Low budget and terrible acting, even by Lifetime standards. First of all, "camp"? This is set on a school campus. Not even a big campus. A football field, an outside eating area, and 1 floor of a building. I dont ever expect a masterpiece from Lifetime, but they're usually fun, well acted, and interesting enough. This was just bizarre on all levels.

This was an amateurish movie centering on a black high school cheerleader. Sophia, who becomes the envy of a mother with a daughter who is pushed to eliminate her cheerleader competition at any cost. Sophia is next on her list. What happens? I don't think anyone really cares except another high schooler. Skip it!

I'm a huge fan of LMN movies but this is not at all one of their better ones.

The plot is very slow moving and really goes nowhere through the whole film. Sometimes LMN movies will give you some interesting twists and turns, but not here.

The acting here was very amateurish. Even General Hospital / LMN regular Andrea Bogart can't make it work. The only bright spot was Jacqueline Scislowski who should have a future in other LMN movies and maybe a little beyond that. She'll do well if they can get her a decent script and competent cast.

I have to agree with the other reviewer who noted that the moves the cheerleaders were doing were incredibly amateurish compared to real competitive cheerleading (which is a thing).

Mariah Robinson is an appealing actress and the rest of the cast is fine but they're not enough to save "Cheer Camp Killer". The material is just not there. The movie is actually pretty dull. The story doesn't really go anywhere. Unfortunately, I found "Cheer Camp Killer" pretty forgettable. Honorable mention: a dreamy Andrea Bogart.
