Overview

Angela Baker escapes from a mental hospital and surfaces at a summer camp as a counselor who lectures her teenage charges on proper moral behavior. Those teens who break her strict rules—from the camp chatterbox or a sex-obsessed girl to the boys who are peeping Toms—are murdered by the impostor in various gruesome ways. As more campers go missing, intrepid counselor Molly begins to piece together the truth.

Viewing Notes

Via Netflix

Angela Baker has undergone years of therapy, electro-shock and sexual reassignment surgeries, and finally landed herself a job in the last place she should be working - camp rolling hills. She has an old fashioned approach as to how camp should be, and an old familiar deadly way of making sure that those who don’t follow her rules don’t get to come back next summer. I have to admit I couldn’t get into this. The acting is kind of awful, it feels like a cash in on Friday the 13th and other slashers to the point kids at the amp dress up like Jason and Freddy to try and scare a counselor, the kills are just off, and the whole thing has just no suspense to it at all. It feels cookie cutter and by the numbers and isn’t all that scary.
