Parents claim in the suits that camp counselors were negligent and that Duke attempted to cover up what happened. " making sure a child does not feel they will be lectured or critiqued for whatever they are going to bring to you," she said. "It is really important that kids feel comfortable talking with their parents," Ohler said, adding that parents need to create an atmosphere at home where children feel safe sharing such information. One of the boys told his parents what happened, according to an email from the parents to camp organizers included in one of the lawsuits. "It is really important, after an incident like this, that the children involved be taught about appropriate boundaries." Summer Camp is available on DVD and VOD now from Kaleidoscope Home Entertainment."A dominant personality of a child can get a less assertive child to do something they do not want to do," said Lindsey Ohler, a psychologist with LePage Associates in Durham, who isn't connected to the case.

With Summer Campproducer Alberto Marini has shown he’s as skllied as a writer/director as he is as producer, joining a long line of filmmakers holding up the Spanish scaremongering tradition. But once the horror ensues and all hell breaks loose, the film hits a fast-paced stride and never lets up – at least until the epically poignant finale when the real horror of the situation, and the horrors of man come to the fore, revealing the truth about the infection and showing the real character of the counselors…

If there’s any issues with Summer Camp its the stilted opening, as the multi-lingual cast struggle with not only the clunky introduction of their characters but also the early exposition which has to get all the plot points out of the way and set up the issues between the four counselors. The twist also ramps up the tension, the audience being privy to information the cast are not, really putting you on the edge of your seat. There’s a twist, which I won’t spoil, which changes up the film from the all-too familiar zombie-esque plotting to some completely different, opening up the film allowing Marini to use the story to explore deeper themes regarding ego-centrism and the brutality of man (or woman).
#Camp kaleidoscope 2017 movie
Yet another Spanish movie about an unexplained infection turning people into flesh-eating psychos may sound like 3.5 but this film, featuring an American and Spanish cast, is less a REC pastiche and more a morality play exploring themes around friendship and trust.

For the rapid-fire spread of an extreme rage-inducing infection plunges the group into a dark vortex of horror and madness catapulting them into a race against time – and each other – to find the source of the mystery contagion and make it out alive. Looking for fun times as counselors at a European summer camp for children, four Americans never suspect their first experience abroad might be their last.

Helmed by longtime Filmax producer Alberto Marini, in his directorial debut, the film follows similar story beats to some of his most well-known films including the franchise and The Last Days. With a title like Summer Campyou’d be forgiven for thinking that this film would be yet another stalk and slash fear flick. Stars: Diego Boneta, Alex Gonzalez, Jocelin Donahue, Maiara Walsh, Andres Velencoso | Written by Alberto Marini, Danielle Schleif | Directed by Alberto Marini
