Movie Summary: After a terrible boating accident, Angela Baker is sent to Camp Arawak, where a series of bizarre and violent “accidents” begin to claim the lives of various campers.
Queer Film LA Says: Equally as memorable as it is problematic, Sleepaway Camp is an iconic 80s slasher with a complicated place in queer horror representation and history. The screening will be introduced by BJ & Harmony Colangelo, authors of the critical text SLEEPAWAY CAMP from DieDieBooks.
