What about The Burning? Great movie about camping...

Never heard of it! Who's in it and what's it about! Other than being about camping, of course!

It's about a dirty old man who is a caretaker at a camp. No one likes him and so some campers decide to scare the wits out of him while he's sleeping. They do just that, and when he jusmps back in fright he knocks over a candle and burns alive. He gets out of the hospital and goes back to the camp for revenge. It came out in 1981 and it was Jason Alexander's first film (best known as George on Seinfeld). A typical slasher film, but Tom Savini does the effects and if you see the uncut version, it is WELL worth it. In fact, the best scene can be seen right here uncut!

Amazon.com used to sell it but I'm not sure if they do anymore. Check it out if you get the chance!

I'm trying to check it out, having problems with my realplayer. but as soon as that's fixed, I will check it out. Sounds like a very good movie. is it available for rent at video stores? i'd like to rent it if it is.

Unfortunately, I doubt you'll be able to find it to rent. Possibly NetFlix if you rent online. Other than that, you may have to buy it...if that's the case, check eBay for some cheap prices. You can get a VHS copy for the price of a rental probably.

thanks for the info. i'll try to find it, cause it really sounds good!!

This is really not a "camp" movie But I really love this movie "Mother`s Day" the 3 women do go out to the woods to camp so therefore it is a woodsy campy movie.. Ike and Adley rock in this move.. I have so many versions of this movie it isnt even funny.. Troma released a DVD recently it has some cool shit on it..
