Cheerleader Camp (1987)

slaughterfest!

its pretty much your typical 80s teen slasher flick, which is just what i was looking for. if you've got bloodlust, it'll quench it. but don't expect any award winning performances. April 7, 2008

Lief Garret?? HAHAHAHAHA!!!!

This is a truly magical film in which you forget half the movie as you sit watching it!! This movie is even worse than the Sleepaway Camp flicks.

A bunch of cheerleaders go to Camp Hurrah to particiapte in some sort of Cheerleading contest. Lief and his obese buddy and the girls represent some Lion team or something. ANyway a superhot blonde is found dead and it is believed to be a suicide, but another cheerleader who has 'dreams' suspects foul play. So we have another 90 minutes of boredom and stupidity as we await the final outcome. If you've seen as many 80's slasher flicks as I have, you'll guess the killer with 5 minutes.

Lief's acting is deplorable, even for a B flick. Teri Weigel, although very hot, cannot even steal a scene when she's the only one on camera. If you love 80's slasher flicks and feel you must have this to complete your collection, go ahead, but buy something else with it so you'll have something to watch. February 25, 2008

Not So Bad...

I bought Cheerleader Camp expecting a cheesy horror film with more nudity than gore. But it was very much the opposite. There were about two nudity scenes and countless other bloody and gore scenes, and that's what I truly enjoyed. I hate it when people only want to see nudity of women in an entire movie. If you want full on nudity, go to some porn video store. Don't come to Cheerleader Camp!

The delusions in the movie are kind of stupid, but are really confusing and weird, but all make sense in the end. The deaths are really cool and crazy and original, and let's not forget that they are bloody!! And, the acting is okay, but it's not unbearable.

Frankly, Cheerleader Camp was a great movie, but the alternate title, Bloody Pom-Poms might have made it more enjoyable for me. December 29, 2007

Give Me An- S! Give Me An- H! Give Me An- I!...

If the sight of a 400lb. man's bare hindquarters terrifies you... STAY AWAY! If the thought of a middle-aged Lief Garrett "rapping" fills your veins w/ icewater... STAY AWAY! If foot-tall 80s hairstyles make you cringe in fear... STAY AWAY! Yes, this is CHEERLEADER CAMP, a film full of cheerleading routines that may be too intense for some viewers! Watch as 30yo teenagers fight to survive against an unknown killer among them! See the horror as pom poms swish and shake! Stand astonished during the hideous school mascots' dance-off! Feel the life drain from your body as 88 minutes simply disappear! YOU HAVE BEEN CHOSEN, YOU ARE DOOMED... April 24, 2007

Fun 80's cheese!

A new camp called Camp Hurrah just opened for cheerleaders who are practing for the upcoming all-state finals show. One of the newest girls named Alison begins to have horrific nightmares that drive her mad and there's a maniac on the prowl waiting for any victims, could it be Alison or any of the other cheerleaders doing it?

Fun and cheesy 80's made slasher comedy with hot chicks, nudity, and some good kills like the shears scene even though it's low on the splatter-meter. Some Playboy and Penthouse beauties like Teri Weigel, Rebecca Ferratti, and Krista Pflanza star as the gorgeous cheerleaders who show it off even for the viewer, the acting sucks but for a b-movie it's a fun and light-hearted slasher flick worth seeing.

This DVD has decent picture and sound with some fine extras like trailers, alternate title sequence, audio commentary, photo gallery, and poster-and-still gallery.
