The premise

Years after a terrible boating accident, Angela is sent to Camp Arawak where a series of bizarre and violent "accidents" begin to claim the lives of various campers.

Horror Vault's take

A tragic accident from Angela's past casts a long shadow when she arrives at Camp Arawak as a quiet, withdrawn teenager. What begins as a summer of social awkwardness and cruelty from fellow campers quickly turns deadly as a string of grisly killings tears through the grounds. Sleepaway Camp delivers sun-soaked slasher thrills with a mean streak, building toward one of genre cinema's most talked-about finales.
