20. Sleepaway Camp III: Teenage Wasteland (1989)
🥛🍨 MA! I’M GOIN’ TO CAMP!
That’s right, sweaty. CryBaby and Bowie return to campy fun time with Sleepaway Camp 3: Teenage Wasteland—a back-to-back sequel that’s equal parts sleazy, problematic, and… surprisingly fun?
This episode our hosts dig into the Camp New Horizons rebrand, Angela Baker’s deeply unserious wig-and-sunglasses disguise, and the revenge-hungry cop hot on her trail. Along the way, they unpack the film’s messy “rich kids vs. underprivileged kids” experiment, calling out its blatant racism, classism, and nonstop “yikes” moments. So hop in and get ready for some peak slop, Baybee!
