It’s time for a new episode of the Real Slashers video series, and with this one we’re looking back at the 1989 release Sleepaway Camp III: Teenage Wasteland (watch it Here). You can find out all about it by watching the video embedded above!
Directed by Michael A. Simpson from a screenplay written by Fritz Gordon (a.k.a. Michael Hitchcock), Sleepaway Camp III: Teenage Wasteland started filming three days after Sleepaway Camp 2 wrapped. This one has the following synopsis: Psychotic Angela is itching to do what she does best: slaughter dozens of teenage campers. As luck would have it, the previous site of her murders has been renamed and converted into an experimental summer camp meant to bring together privileged and lower-class teens. On the day the youths are boarding the buses to camp, Angela runs over a potential camper with a garbage truck and assumes her identity.

With Christmas songs on the airwaves, presents being placed under trees, and holiday gatherings taking place, summer camp might be the furthest thing from your mind, but the folks at Scream Factory will have you reminiscing about crackling bonfires and blood-splattered fun in the sun, as they have revealed that they will release the first two Sleepaway Camp sequels on Collector’s Edition Blu-rays next year.
Due to the requests that came in when they released Sleepaway Camp on a Collector’s Edition Blu-ray in late May, Scream Factory has revealed that sometime next summer they will release Collector’s Edition Blu-rays of Sleepaway Camp II: Unhappy Campers and Sleepaway Camp III: Teenage Wasteland, both of which were directed by Michael A. Simpson, written by Fritz Gordon, and starred Pamela Springsteen as Angela Baker.

Kino Lorber releases 1990 supernatural cop thriller The First Power on Blu-ray this month, though time has been nothing but unkind to the film’s B-movie tropes that capitalized on the star power of the then very popular Lou Diamond Phillips. Opening in April, 1990 to generally tepid response, it was the sophomore feature of director and screenwriter Robert Resnikoff, who would not direct or write any features thereafter (though he had a couple previous screenwriting credits that must have warranted some promise, including the Lewis Teague directed Jay Leno/Pat Morita action comedy Collision Course). By today’s more lofty standards, Resnikoff’s serial killing acumen seems woefully cornball.
L.A. homicide detective Russell Logan (Lou Diamond Phillips) is no stranger to hunting serial killers, but he may have met his match after catching the Pentagram killer (Jeff Kober). A street wise psychic (Tracy Griffith) warns Logan against what might happen...

If you have Netflix and are a horror fan in need of something to watch this Labor Day weekend, one look at this gargantuan list I compiled of the new terror titles Netflix has added for instant streaming in just the first three days of this month should keep you busy until Labor Day next year. You'll find something for everyone, from older titles to recent releases, famous to obscure, classic to not-so-classic, monsters to maniacs - you name it.
For the record, I considered compiling this list in alphabetical order or by year of the film's release, but then I realized I had already spent well over an hour just sorting through the massive catalogue of titles Netflix has now made available for instant streaming and realized Labor Day would be over by the time I finished arranging this list in any kind of order. Ready? Here you go.
