Hell of a Summer: everything we know about the film

We don’t know much about Hell of a Summerbut we are still in possession of some information, first of all that there is among the producers Jason Bateman. The film was shot in Ontario (Canada) and we also find in the cast Fred Hechingerwhich we have seen in World news Of Paul Greengrass it’s not The woman at the window Of Joe Wright. As for the plot, here’s what he said Finn Wolfhard in an interview with Collider:

It’s a slasher comedy set during a summer camp. The story takes place during the weekend preceding the arrival of the guests. The staff are setting up camp and meanwhile some people are being killed. The film is the classic ensemble comedy about a summer camp with blood added.

From these words of the very young director, one can sense that the film is a tribute to a series of famous slasher films, and those who love the genre cannot fail to think of films such as Friday the 13th e Sleepaway Camp and its sequels.

The first image from the set of Hell of a Summer

But let’s go back to the precious first scene photo of Hell of a Summer. It shows us Finn Wolfhard e Billy Bryk each holding a torch aimed at something frightening. It is night and nothing can be seen in the background. Finn Wolfhard he’s wearing a dressing gown, which makes us think he’s been jerked awake by his friend, or by something else.
