"description": "I almost gave up and maligned this movie. Almost . I never did summer camp (fuck summer camp). I did \"outdoor school\" which was an extended field trip during middle school when kids are at their most monstrous. A campy summer camp movie. A campy camp horror movie. And that haircut? What is that haircut? Where is this camp? Where am I? Wandering off into the woods thinking about why I'm glad I didn't give up on this. I'm glad I didn't give up on this because the twist, the shift in the narrative and your understanding of what was, up until said twist arrives, a campy and altogether mediocre summer horror movie. The whole thing was clearly done on a tight budget and the nostalgic flourishes are all in keeping with what you'd see in Stranger Things . But the twist works perfectly and the budget doesn't really matter. It's clever, well delivered, considered and slowly unwound. Entertaining popcorn-fare. : DelPurgatorio is a seriously rad last name. Hell yeah that domain name was available.",
