Plot
Morris "Mud" Himmel has a problem. His parents desperately want to send him away to summer camp. He hates going to summer camp, and would do anything to get out of it. Talking to his friends, he realizes that they are all facing the same sentence: a boring summer camp. Together with his friends, he hatches a plan to trick all the parents into sending them to a camp of his own design, which would actually be a parent-free paradise. Blackmailing former drama teacher Dennis Van Welker into helping, they must convince the parents that the camp is genuine, and that they aren't allowed to visit...
Trivia
- This was the fourth film staring both Christopher Lloyd and Tom Wilson. Previously the two actors worked together in the Back to the Future Trilogy.
- A 2006 film, Accepted, has a similar premise, but for college rather than summer camp.
- Judging by the fact they went through a car wash in Shamokin, it implies that the camp is located in Pennsylvania's Coal Region.
