It’s never too late for a second chance. CAMP HIDEOUT is now available on digital & demand.

I grew up watching genre movies and was a big fan of directors Ridley Scott, Steven Spielberg, James Cameron, and Richard Donner. Some of my favorites were Jaws, Back to the Future, The Goonies, Terminator 2, and Blade Runner.

With Camp Hideout, I had the extraordinary opportunity to work with one of my childhood heroes, Christopher Lloyd (Emmett "Doc" Brown from Back to the Future). When making the film, I drew upon my own experiences as an enthusiastic summer camp enthusiast to craft a delightful family comedy that pays homage to the films I cherished while growing up—movies in which children were the driving force behind the storytelling.

Due to the presence of Christopher Lloyd, director Sean Olson’s ‘Camp Hideout’ will bring to mind ‘Camp Nowhere’ for several audience members. Written by Kat Olson, C.
