Taking place at Silverlake camp, it is about to close and be sold for development. The owner says she has had it in the family, and the first year there were a couple of deaths, and each year after there were 'accidents'. So she is selling as the camp isn't viable anymore. One of the camp counselors makes a Jason joke, so is this a homage or a parody movie? Regardless, it would have been greatly improved if all killings took place in the first 10 minutes of the film. The actors seem earnest in their roles, although most seem amateurs, and when face to face with the killer, they immediately decide to make the worst possible decision. Dumb and inept seems an appropriate description. Difficult to care who get killed. The most adult of the group is among the first killed. Very predictable and a waste of time.

I would have give a better review if the movie was so out of focus. I'm guessing the people who made this movie must have bought their camera from a yard sale that wasn't in a good condition. Or either the director has bad eye sights and doesn't realized the film is out of focus? Either way, they should have done better than that. However the movie itself was okay, some cheesy kills that isn't possible was there, lol! But overall it was okay and the camera view was bad out of focus so that's really will hit the ratings for sure as I only give 4 stars for it. I don't like to watch a movie that isn't very clear. They need to improve and learn from their mistakes not to use cheap cameras.

After a devastating tragedy, the counselors at a summer camp in the woods try to put the accident behind them and get the campsite ready for a prospective new buyer, but when they realize that the camp legend of a masked killer stalking the area is try must try to stop him before they're all killed.

Overall, there's quite a lot to like here. One of the finer aspects with this one is the throwback attitude present with the old-school slasher films it's trying to emulate. The opening setup of the incidents at the camp that trace its legacy, starting with the campfire story to try to scare the new counselors while finding themselves under attack, the series of deaths that have to be revealed to parents, and the tragedy that the counselors have to get through for their own mental sanity, is a fantastic series of old-school starting points. It all provides the kind of backstory necessary to understand the motivations of everyone, the history of the location and the small bits involving the killer's presence that gives the film a great old-school feeling. As well, there's also quite a lot to like with the atmosphere generated with the whole setup. The backstory about the killer is a fine start and is used quite effectively to help inspire some cheesy startles with the group out in the woods searching for the missing kid during the woods at night that brings about the recurrence of previous traumas in their life preventing them from carrying on or the incidents around the woods making them think they're being watched using the suddenness of his appearances at night which bring about the gleaming mask and hulking axe. With the majority of the scenes taking place at a steady, measured tempo sneaking around quietly trying to make sure they don't alert him but still drawing attention to them anyway, there's a lot more suspense than expected here. This leads into the film's enjoyable stalking and slashing that employs some fine elements. Starting with the opening flashback that shows him taking out the camper trying to tell the campfire legend, this manages to provide some solid attack scenes with the striking look of the killer and their athleticism getting some fun moments. The appearance in front of the camp and attacking the counselors in front of everyone is a standout sequence, much like the ambush in the cabins or the various attacks around the camp as they try to get help that make it seem like there's more than one. As this twist gets explored rather nicely in the finale providing some fun chases and encounters around camp, they come together to give this a lot to like. There are some problems with this one that do slightly hold it down. The main issue here is the lack of interest this one manages to drive by providing the final girl with the trauma-based background it does. This whole setup is fine in theory with giving her something to overcome in addition to having to fight off the killer, but it really makes her bland and uninteresting for the most part and doesn't make her that endearing so the stakes for the finale aren't there as much as it should. With the convoluted backstory making it somewhat scattershot what's going on at times, this can also have that same kind of effect on things, which also ends up occurring with the overly familiar setup that's used here. These aren't bad and don't lower it much but do stand out here.
