Synopsis

Angela Baker escapes from a mental hospital and surfaces at a summer camp as a counselor who lectures her teenage charges on proper moral behavior. Those teens who break her strict rules -- from the camp chatterbox or a sex-obsessed girl to the boys who are peeping Toms -- are murdered by the impostor in various gruesome ways. As more campers go missing, intrepid counselor Molly begins to piece together the truth.

O2D I usually hate when a sequel explains what happened in the original but this movie needed it and thankfully they did it. Once again there is basically no plot and the acting is not so good. This time they don't go for the over the top screaming, which is definitely a good thing. The ways the people get killed are much better than in the original, although this time lots of dead people continue to breath or move their eyes. I'm sure other reviews on here say it sucks but it's just as good as the original, just different. Give it a chance.
TheBlueHairedLawyer In Unhappy Campers, Angela is played by Pamela Springsteen, and the camp that was shut down in the first film has re-opened, with a new generation of kids who are older than the ones in the first film but just as bad, if not worse. Angela has had to endure years of electroshock therapy, anti-psychosis pills and a sex change operation before changing her name to Angela Johnson and signing up as a camp counselor. Soon after she arrives though, people begin to go missing.This sequel to Sleepaway Camp has far more sexual scenes/sex jokes, and is a little more vulgar than the first, such as dubbing two twin sisters who camp there the "Sh*t Sisters". Pamela Springsteen is excellent in the role of Angela, the acting wasn't bad, and although the soundtrack isn't as good as in the first one it's still not bad. For a sequel, this is pretty great and I really liked it.
WildestDreams I recommend avoiding Sleepaway Camp's initial sequels no matter how much you loved the original. Forget they were ever made because this and part three have no resemblance to the first one. They aren't even enjoyable movies in their own rights, they're just plain shallow. The basic premise is this: Angela saying sassy things whilst hacking off campers. I'm the biggest fan of sequels, but does anybody really want to see their slasher villain look into the camera to deliver a corny one-liner whenever they go to off somebody? Its the same formula that led horror icons such as Freddy Krueger and Chucky to become mere parodies of their themselves as their sequels went on. Thankfully, the series creator (who is also the writer/director of part one) had almost nothing to do with these trash sequels. Better still, he created his own direct sequel in 2008, Return to Sleepaway Camp, which is excellent. It ignores the two sequels from the late 80's altogether and you should do the same.
atinder I saw this few years again, i tired to watch early in the week after seeing first movie, the next day i planned to watch this movie, I found the movie a bit dull as i could sit thought so turned it off. As I don't judge a movie until i have see the whole movie, so i re-re watch this movie tonight,I did not turn of this times however, i did find the movie every entertaining and there was some dull moment here and there in the movie.There were some really good decent in-trusting deaths scenes in this movie that I really liked and also really enjoyed the nods to other 80's classic horror movies. I don't mind some nudity in movies but i felt they put to much in this movie and it got dull as the movie went on.The acting was really poor from most of the cast and i did not like the ending at all, i thought that was really bad way to end a movie.I still going to give it 5 out of 10
