Whip out the marshmallows and get the fire going, because Dark Sky Films has announced that you’ll be able to head to Avalon Fast‘s queer summer camp horror film, Camp, when it hits VOD this weekend!
In the new film from the director of Honeycomb, Emily is the root cause of two devastating tragedies very early in her life, and she feels the weight of these accidents as though cursed. At her father’s suggestion, she takes a position at a summer camp for troubled youth to ease her guilt. When Emily arrives, she is welcomed by the other counselors, who accept her as she is and surround her with peace and forgiveness. Just as Emily begins to believe in a new kind of life, she starts to hear a voice whispering from deep in the woods — one that urges her to go home, and one that may be impossible to ignore.
Zola Grimmer, Alice Wordsworth, Cherry Moore, Lea Rose Sebastianis, Ella Reece, Austyn Van De Kamp, Izza Jarvis, and Sophie Bawks-Smith star.
The film is produced by Taylor Nodrick (Influencers), Jacob Glickman, Jackie De Niverville, Martin Cadieux-Rouillard, and Maya Cadieux-Rouillard. Executive Producers on the film are Paul Cadieux (The Triplets of Belleville), Milan Chakraborty (My Friend Dahmer), Peter Kuplowsky (In a Violent Nature, Psycho Goreman), Michael Peterson (Harpoon), and Sanjay M Sharma (Four Samosas).
Camp world premiered at Austin’s Fantastic Fest, where it took Best Feature in the Next Wave competition, and picked up the awards for Best Screenplay and Best Cinematography at the Brooklyn Horror Film Festival.
In his review for the film out of Chattanooga, Dread’s Chad Collins wrote, “I was entranced with its elegiac queer undertones and propensity for quiet, everyday magic.”
Head to Camp when the film arrives on VOD July 10th. You can also catch it currently playing in select theaters.
