In our last episode for the summer of The Killer Point of View Podcast, we’re diving into the 2025 horror comedy Hell of a Summer.

We kick things off with discussing will we ever see a summer camp slasher that tops Friday the 13th or not? Next we give our first impressions of the film and then the most important question: was there too much humor and not enough horror? From there, we break down the killer reveal and motive, debating whether it hit the mark or missed the opportunity.

We also highlight any standout characters and performances that kept us hooked or made us annoyed. Is Hell of a Summer hiding a deeper meaning, or is it simply here to deliver a good time at camp?

Finally, we give our ratings, share whether this one earns a spot in the slasher campfire circle, and leave you with some movie recommendations if you’re craving more films. Enjoy!
