***All-around improvement on the original perverse youth camp slasher*** About six years after the events of the first film, Angela (Pamela Springsteen) is now an adult camp counselor at Camp Rolling Hills after getting therapy and the operation (if you know what I mean). She carefreely weeds out all the bad kids and anyone else who might get in the way. The production values of “Sleepaway Camp II: Unhappy Campers” (1988) are all-around superior to the original 1983 slasher. Sure, both are “Friday the 13th” knock-offs, but they’re distinguished by (1.) actual adolescents inhabiting the camp and (2.) the perverse uniqueness of the killer. The only real campy element is Angela’s blithe chippy-ness in carrying out her slaughter spree. Other than that, this plays out like a mid-80’s coming-of-age drama with quality insights and surprisingly fleshed-out characters, which were the attributes of the first film as well. For instance, Molly (Renée Estevez) is very distinguished from Ally (Valerie Hartman) and Mare (Susan Marie Snyder). The mullets and short shorts on guys are amusing. An additional highlight is the kick-axx soundtrack of semi-obscure mid-80’s rock/metal, starting with Anvil’s excellent “Straight Between the Eyes” during the opening credits (only hindered by the juvenile and tasteless lyrics, but what else is new?). “Outta Control” by John Altyn is featured later and Obsession’s “Desperate to Survive” during the end credits. The film runs 1 hour, 20 minutes, and was shot in Bremen, Georgia, about an hour’s drive west of Atlanta. GRADE: B/B-

Slasher flick with an edge.

Before commenting on "Sleepaway Camp II" I need to put something clear. Valerie Hartman is a spectacular beauty; she's incredibly beautiful, sexy, charming, etc. She makes this movie worth a watch. That's how amazing she is. Also, her sex scenes are highlights. Yes believe it.Now seriously, "Sleepaway Camp II" is a fun, entertaining, somehow gory Slasher flick. It's a sequel to a straight Slasher flick; I mean, the original had no black humor and was all about gore and the now infamous creepy ending. The sequel is more of a black comedy with some gore and cheesy one liners.This is a pleasant watch for fans of Slashers with the occasional black comedy. Pamela Springsteen delivers a unique, comical performance but when she needs to be bad, oh, she is bad and wicked. She steals the show and I'm glad she is now somewhat a cult icon on the Slasher sub-genre.The death scenes are very regular for these kind of movies but I must be redundant; the comical bits add something fresh to these death scenes.Sincerely, I'm objective, and that's why I will recommend "Sleepaway Camp II" only for fans of the Slasher sub-genre. Avid Horror fans with more violent tastes most likely will hate it. It's the typical American Slasher filled with clichès, cheese, and horrible acting.But overall this is a decent sequel with decent death scenes and funny sequences.
