School's out and it's time to send the kids off to some backwoods lake where they can find true love (like in Moonrise Kingdom), fend for their lives (Friday the 13th), hang with the cool camp councilors (Hot Wet American Summer), or if they end up in Camp North Star from the film Meatballs (pictured), they might discover that it just. doesn't. matter.
Directed by Paul Verhoeven
Coming-of-Age, Teen Movie - Rated R - 109 Minutes - 1979
Paul Verhoeven's last Dutch-made movie before he pulled up stakes for Hollywood is like if Saturday Night Fever was made in Amsterdam (with all the accompanying extreme sexual frankness), and instead of being disco dancers, the crowd of restless young male friends were dirt bike racers. With Rutger Hauer in one of his early, pre-Blade Runner roles.
