Angela Baker

And while the film pretends that there's a mystery about who's behind the killings, it's mostly just lurches from one unpleasant interaction to the next, building toward a reveal that has minimal, if any, payoff.

In a last-ditch attempt to cash in on some nostalgia, we find Angela Baker, played by Phyllisa Rose herself, to be the orchestrator of these campy murders.

Why did she do it? I don't know.

Return to sleepaway camp.

We're never quite sure if we're supposed to read it or not.

But Angela told me if I didn't read it, she would give me a sex change.

It says a sex change slasher returns as a camp counselor.

And then if we scroll on to the storyline, this comes care of.

Thank God this comes care of.

Dismal Angel.

And it says, Dismal Angel says, Angela Baker has undergone years of therapy, electroshock, and sexual reassignment surgeries, and finally landed herself a job in the last place she should be working, Camp Rolling Hills.

She has an old-fashioned approach to how camp should be, and an old, familiar, deadly way of making sure that those who don't follow her rules don't get to come back next summer.

And the first moment the cop walks on screen, you're like, "Oh, that's Angela Baker," who's the killer from the first one.

[laughs]

Felissa Rose.

I think there's a lot of that DNA in this movie.

I don't know if I want to spoil the movie, but the final girl in Sleepaway Camp is this character called Angela Baker.

And then it turns out that Angela Baker is the killer all along, and that she's also a boy.

It's revealed that she's actually her dead brother.

The real Angela died in an accident, and then the parents... groomed the brother to be a replacement for their dead daughter.

Well, you just blew the entire review.

Camp Dread is not a sequel, and it is not affiliated with Sleepaway Camp in any way other than that Phyllisa Rose stars in the film, but she is not Angela Baker, and it has nothing to do with that original storyline.

So all the praise that they heaped on my film tells me nothing.

because you didn't watch it properly.
