Sleepaway Camp III: Teenage Wasteland

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!

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)

Having seen and loved the first two, I don't really know why it took me so long to finally watch this one. Man, I'm glad I did. Teenage Wasteland is every bit as good as it its predecessors and I laughed all the way through it. Here are a few of the film's highlights:

1.) Death by garbage truck 2.) Death by Lawnmower 3.) Death by flag-pole 4.) Arms ripped off, via Jeep.

The list goes on and on. Angela's one-liners are better than ever and it stays in the same vein as part two. Pamela Springsteen does another good job and they left room for a sequal, which, rumor has it, is in the works. Check it out.

The first movie in this series is the one with the twist, that made it a cult hit. I thought I watched the second one recently but must have skipped it so I'll have to watch it soon. This one is ok, but still filled with bad acting and nothing to set it aside from any other slasher.

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
