THIS MOVIE ROCKS
Sleepaway Camp 2 is definitely one of the best slasher movies out there! After seeing the first Sleepaway Camp, I wasn't sure I was going to like this, but I was definitely pleased. It has great gore, lots of death, tons of unecessary nudity, and good humor. This is a slasher movie that doesn't scare you but is still fun to watch. The first person camera-work was a great play on the Friday the 13th films. Highly recommended viewing.
Not as bad as I expected.
I usually hate when a sequel explains what happened in the original but this movie needed it and thankfully they did it. Once again there is basically no plot and the acting is not so good. This time they don't go for the over the top screaming, which is definitely a good thing. The ways the people get killed are much better than in the original, although this time lots of dead people continue to breath or move their eyes. I'm sure other reviews on here say it sucks but it's just as good as the original, just different. Give it a chance.
Low-IQ fun, impure and simple
I like a lot of types of films, depending on my mood. Sometimes, I dig movies for the intellectuals. At other times, I dig stupid, cheezy trash. Boy, what can I say? This movie is cruel, hateful, nasty, offensive, and panders to the lowest common denominator... and I love it! It's one of the funniest horror-comedies out there, reeking of bad taste and daring to be different than all of the "Friday the 13th"-type movies about faceless killers with no personality. Yes, this is when "bottom of the barrel" is no longer an insult. It has some of the greatest death scenes ever, and kept me laughing at humor that was both intentional and unintentional, but never failed to make me laugh, nonetheless. As trashy and low-brow as this yucky classic is, you've got to wonder what Pamela Springsteen's all-American, rock-star brother made of it, if he even watched it at all. Man, this is a fun movie!
My favortie one in the series
Sleepaway Camp II: Unhappy Campers is the best in the camp trilogy. The gore scenes are great, Pamela Springstein as Angela is very funny and the cast of unknowns is very good. There is also a lot of nudity which is always good in a slasher flick.
A movie that's not afraid to make fun of itself.
I recently went out and bought the Sleepaway Camp set and watched them for the first time. I've got to go with the immoral majority here and say that SC2 was a fun movie. The acting was horrid and the "story" looks like it was thrown together over lunch but, the way the movie poked fun at the horror genre is something rarely seen. Most slasher flicks are funny but, that's cause they try to make a good movie. After seeing the whole set, they made this movie clearly to laugh at and have a good time watching it.
I did enjoy Sleepaway Camp II: Unhappy Campers and would recommend it to friends. Like others have said, it's mindless gory fun. Hats off to the creators of SC 2 & 3 for making a funny/cheesy flick and letting us have a good time watching it.

Did you know
- TriviaFelissa Rose was asked to return as Angela Baker and she did a reading, but didn't quite click with the comedic one-liners that Angela delivered in the sequels. She was also preparing to attend college at the time.
- GoofsIn the two scenes panning around the cabin filled with Angela's victims, 10 bodies are seen. Yet at this point, Angela has only killed 9 people--Phoebe, Jodi, Brooke, Mare, Anthony, Judd, Ally, Demi and Lea.
- Crazy creditsAfter the last bit of credits the following bit is seen, a scene from earlier in the movie. (After murdering the head counselor Angela ducks her head back into the main cabin) Angela: Goodnight Campers.
- Alternate versionsThe 1988 UK video received 2 minutes 16 secs of BBFC cuts with heavy edits to the stabbing and drowning of Ally in a cabin toilet, Phoebe's tongue being cut off, and a closeup of a knife in Diane's stomach. The cuts were restored in the 2004 Anchor Bay DVD.
