Sleepaway Camp: Somebody Shut This Place Down

About this episode

We're wrapping up our journey through 1980s horror movies with Sleepaway Camp (1983), a summer camp slasher that somehow manages to make every terrible decision imaginable—and then tops it all off with one of the most shocking endings in horror movie history. This week on Hoot'n & Holler'n, Matt, Joey, Eric, and Drake head to Camp Arawak, where the counselors are questionable, the campers have absolutely filthy mouths, and the camp director refuses to shut the place down despite an alarming number of dead bodies. From a dangerously oversized pot of boiling water and a truly bizarre beehive attack to Ricky's legendary temper and some of the shortest shorts ever committed to film, we're breaking down all the ridiculous moments that make this cult classic unforgettable. And just when we think we've seen everything this movie has to offer, THAT ending leaves us with more questions than answers. WARNING: Major spoilers ahead! If you've never seen Sleepaway Camp, you might want to watch it before listening. Trust us, there's no preparing yourself for this one. Find more from Hoot'n & Holler'n at https://hootnandhollern.com
