2023 marks the 40th anniversary of the classic slasher Sleepaway Camp (watch it Here), and 1984 Publishing has announced that they will be celebrating with the release of the “making of” book Sleepaway Camp: Making the Movie and Reigniting the Campfire, as well as a 4-song soundtrack EP! The street date for these releases is October 24th. Hardcover copies of the book can already be pre-ordered on Amazon – but if you want the EP, you’ll have to order directly from 1984 Publishing, and they’re not taking pre-orders just yet.

This is another Blu-ray release, that I wish existed a year prior. Last summer, we recorded a retrospective podcast series, covering the entirety of the Sleepaway Camp series, and could have really used a loaded, Uncut Blu-ray release of the first film. We made due with what was available, though, and now I can revisit Scream Factory’s new Collector’s Edition Blu-ray release of the film, with the image of the DVD still fresh in my mind for comparison. If you are interested in our retrospective look at the series in its entirety, you can check that out here. I’ve seen this movie at least a dozen times, and as many problems as it has, it still manages to entertain me just as much, each new visit. I know the ending is coming, and I know what to expect, but it still has that same impact it had on me as a kid.

Robert Hiltzik's entire movie career has basically been in telling one story, that of Sleepaway Camp. Hiltzik wrote and directed the original, as well as Return to Sleepaway Camp. So who better to discuss Sleepaway Camp's move to Blu-ray from Scream Factory on May 27 than Robert Hiltzik himself.
Hiltzik recently sat down with Dread Central to talk about some interesting aspects of this horror staple, which was released in 1983. "I was in graduate film school at the time and I wanted to do my own film," Hiltzik said, when discussing the origins of the movie. "I wanted to figure out what would get me into the marketplace the easiest. The path of least resistance. I figured dramas and comedies would be very subjective, but everyone likes a good horror film. And I figured shooting a horror film in one location would keep the budget modest. So I thought...

One of the things I love so much about the horror genre is just how many sub-sections there are to it. I mean, if you were so inclined or just in the mood, you could focus your movie viewing leisure time specifically to the supernatural, or to zombies, or perhaps werewolves & vampires, or monsters (oh my)! But for me, I personally like to get seasonal with my horror movies. And so with summer officially upon us, this is the time of year I break out all of my favorite (and obscure) summer slasher horror! We figured we’d give you 6 recommendations so you could get into the summer slasher spirit as well; some of which are well known, some obscure and some recent ones that just warrant another look in the off chance you missed ‘em upon their initial release. The 'Friday The 13th' films are a given,...

Date: 1983Director: Robert HiltzikCast: Felissa Rose, Jonathan Tiersten, Karen Fields, Katherine Kahmi, Paul DeAngelo
A father and his two children are brutalized in a freak boat accident while they are enjoying a beautiful day at the lake. Flash forward to a few years later where outspoken, smart-mouthed Ricky and his shy, odd cousin Angela are on their way to summer camp. It seems Angela is the sole survivor of the boating accident and now lives with her flamboyantly odd Aunt Martha and her cousin Ricky. As soon as the two arrive at Camp Arawak, Angela becomes the target of many of the other campers because of her shyness and demeanor. But soon, those who taunt Angela turn up dead, murdered in very gruesome ways, from boiling water, to beehives, to a curling iron.
It is hard to argue that this film, which has gained an almost unprecedented cult following, remains...

Can it be true? Is the final Saw really upon us? Hard to believe James Wan’s little indie nasty resonated with audiences six years back in a way large enough to spawn six freakin’ sequels. And what’s more surprising is that Jigsaw waited until the very end of his October reign to cash in on the trendy 3D craze that’s been putting the hurt on our wallets the last few years.
With Saw 3D’s release quickly approaching, there’s perhaps no better time to reflect on the genre’s most successful (or, in some cases, most baffling) forays into all three dimensions. Of course we’re going to cover all of the mainstays, but this list wouldn’t be worth much if we didn’t pull the curtain back on some of the truly bizarre offerings that somehow found their way to dimly lit screens all over the world.

I guess this entry is going to get kind of spoilerish, but sadly (not in a sarcastic way, this is actually really sad), Return To Sleepaway Camp isn’t much worth your time anyway, so eh, read on.
Sleepaway Camp is rad. It’s that simple. It’s a modern slasher classic that I had no hesitation in returning to. It’s a case of, “I’m not sure what I want to watch, I’ll just throw on Sleepaway Camp,” or “Oh my God! You’ve never seen Sleepaway Camp?? We’re watching it right now!” How many times have you met someone who’s never seen it and then just got so excited at the prospect of making them see it and staring at their face at the end? It just contains a lot of nostalgic fun, and as far as late nights and friends go, it’s a good flick to love.

That bitch is scary!” but then I thought to myself, “Well, she scared me once, so the chances of her scaring me again are slim to none, since I’ll be expecting it.” Well, the second half of me was right. Instead of following the first film, Return [...]...

Inside you'll find the DVD cover art for the long, long delayed Return To Sleepaway Camp, which is finally arriving on DVD October 14th from Magnet Releasing. It's summer camp as usual at Camp Manabe where the kids torment each other for fun while the underpaid camp staff provide as little supervision as possible. Greedy camp owner Frank (Vincent Pastore) and junior partner Ronnie (Paul DeAngelo) do their best to keep everyone in line, but something sinister is about to put a slash in the roster. When campers and staff mysteriously begin disappearing and turning into gruesome corpses, paranoid Ronnie can't shake the memory of a series of grisly murders that took place at Camp Arawak where he worked 2 decades ago. Has a "ghost" from the past come back to haunt him?...
