31 days of horror Day 14


Cheerleader Camp

Source-Anchor Bay DVD

Made at the end of the slasher cycle,Cheerleader Camp is a film that shows that with a little dash of humor,and stocking the film with 2 Playboy Playmates you can still have a film that is remembered even now. The main cast is made up of Betsy Russell,Teri Weigel,Rebecca Ferratti,and Leif Garrett. They are the cheer leading team from Lindo Valley,and they head up to Camp Hurrah to end the National Cheer leading contest. Yes even though this film is from 1987 Leif is trying his best to pass as a teenager. The film goes as you would expect from a mid 80's slasher movie,blood,guts,and tits. Sadly the killer is so easy to spot,when they first appear most people should be able to tell that they will be the killer. Overall a decent film,perfect for gathering a group of friends over,and drinking a few cold ones while watching. The DVD is easy to find for cheap,IIRC I got my copy still sealed for about $6 total. Cheerleader Camp gets a B.
