WSR Narrative Review |

Story Synopsis:
Camp Nowhere is a comedic romp when a group of young teens decide to create a summer camp of their dreams, with no rules, counselors or parents to control them. Christopher Lloyd plays the part of an ex-science teacher and out-of-work actor who is challenged to accept the part of camp adult in a young friend’s plan to rebel against the traditional theme camps—computer, drama, health and military school. The plan works and the teens are enjoying more fun than they can handle but soon have to face the real world of adults and have to do some fast thinking when their parents come to call.
LaserDisc Picture:
The 1.85:1 matted picture is sharp and detailed with vivid colors, but fleshtones are inconsistent. Some scenes look good and others do not. Noise is apparent in the darker scenes but otherwise there are no distracting artifacts.
LaserDisc Soundtrack:
The soundtrack is a conventional Hollywood mix with undistinguished dialogue produced with ADR. The music score is well recorded and it provides what there is of surround ambient envelopment. Essentially, the sound is mono with stereo embellishment.
