Summary: A summer camp on a deserted island was supposed to be fun and adventurous for a group of teen campers. Two girls, Amber and Mia almost immediately begin to fight for dominance of the group and over a boy they both like. Mia quickly finds herself at a disadvantage when Amber begins showing unusual abilities to turn the other campers against her. There also seems to be a ghost hanging around the camp from the previous year to add to the drama. Personal opinion: A revamped, refreshing twist on an old fashioned evil camp themed story. It contains the typical 'Queen Bee' type girls fighting for power. The plot moves along at a good pace leaving you wondering what will happen next. The hints leading to the big twist reveal at the end are well timed and strategically placed to build just the right amount of tension and suspense. Not to mention the big reveal to what is really going on is both unique and unexpected. Mia starts out as the type of girl I usually love to hate in shows like this. You know the one: the spoiled, judgmental girl who assumes she is the hottest and smartest in the place. As the story unfolds, a more vulnerable and relatable side of her is shown. By the end I actually admired her for her strength after everything she goes through.
