Released - 1989
Genre - Horror, Comedy
Director - Michael A. Simpson
Starring - Pamela Springsteen, Tracy Griffith, Michael J. Pollard, Mark Oliver, Haynes Brooke, Kim Wall

Cheesy comedic slasher slaughter as the usual array of brain dead idiots are stalked and removed forcibly from the gene pool. The film features the same story as always, a bunch of teens at a camp, this time a mixture of rich and poor kids in some experimental camp sharing exercise and a crazed Angela with a new identity mashing their obnoxious brains in. The acting is camp, the script is awful and the attempts at comedy only occasionally hit the mark but there are plenty of set-piece murders and unnecessary nudity. This conforms to the diminishing return theory of sequels in that it is worse than the previous two efforts but if you like bad cheesy eighties slasher films with gratuitous gore and nudity this is for you.

Gore - some imaginative but cheap gory deaths including a lawnmower incident and various beheadings and stabbings
