About this event
Book tickets for two or more of our Looking Camp Right in the Eye films in the same transaction to receive a discount! From the grisly SFX to the fashionable short-shorts, from the nihilistic vibe to the truly unforgettable climax, Sleepaway Camp is no ordinary slasher... it’s an all-time cult classic. After a boating accident kills her family, shy Angela (the iconic Felissa Rose) lives with her eccentric Aunt Martha and cousin Ricky. Angela and Ricky are sent to Camp Arawak for the summer, where bizarre and violent accidents are claiming the lives of campers. Has a dark secret returned from the camp’s past, or will another unspeakable horror end the summer season for all? "Another film overtly referenced in Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma through imagery is 1983's Sleepaway Camp . Released to unfavourable reviews, this summer camp slasher has been reappraised in recent years, going on to garner a cult following and undoubtedly having one of the most memorable final shots in film." - Written by Raymah Tariq, Programme Manager
