Return to camp with Michael A. Simpson's Sleepaway Camp 2: Unhappy Campers (1988) which finds Angela killing according to Aunt Martha's conservative moral code.
We're talking about Pamela Springsteen's performance (and Felissa Rose's absence), our love of Ally, and the film's status as a self-referential horror comedy.
Plus: the lack of short shorts, poor editing, Molly's end, and debates if the laughs subvert the "trans killer" trope.
