Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Camp Nowhere
A kid named Morris 'Mud' Himmel (Jonathan Jackson) has a really big problem. His parents want to send him to summer camp. He really hates going to summer camp. So he starts looking for a way to get out of it. When Morris talks to his friends, he finds out that they all have exactly the same problem. Morris and his friends decided to make a plan. They decided to trick their parents by sending them to a camp of their own design. The camp would be a parent-free paradise. By bribing a drama teacher Christopher Lloyd ( Dennis Van Welker) to help them, they must convince the parents that the camp is realistic, and no parents are allowed to visit the camp.
