Description

Ernest P. Worrell, America's lanky, lovable know-it-all (played to perfection by comedian "Hey, Vern! KnoWhutImean?" Jim Varney), stars as the hero of this frenetic, side-splitting comedy. The handyman at Kamp Kikakee, Ernest achieves his greatest ambition and becomes a camp counselor to a gang of juvenile delinquents from the Midstate Boys Detention Center! Not only must Mr. Advice-for-every-possible-occasion wrangle the wayward youths, but he has to save the camp from the ruthless clutches of a giant mining company too. Comic pandemonium ensues in the laugh riot of the summer season ... or any ol' time!

These are for my nephew who seen one at a friends house and loved it. He asked for them for Christmas so he's getting several. I can't wait to see his face when he opens the gifts.

Jim Varney was by far one of the best comedy actors I ever had the pleasure to watch. Ernest goes to camp is probably one of my favorites of the Ernest movies. If you like comedy then this movie is a must.

This really is just a slapstick fun film with every possible element that will make kids love it. The secondary benefit is that it has enough of a decent plot to keep mom and dad watching it too.

The late Iron Eyes Cody, the co-star of the film, was simply super in this flick. Most adults will remember him as the Indian in the anti-littering TV Public Service Announcement campaign, where he was the Indian with the tear dripping from his eye.

I was acquainted with Iron pretty well and most film buffs didn't know that he broke his leg in the middle of the production of this film, (jumped off a pick-up truck badly), so they had to finish by shooting the remaining scenes of him from the waist up! It doesn't effect the film at all, really, but it's interesting to know as you watch.

And, yes, I agree with others here that this is the best of the "Ernest Films".

Ernest P. Worrell Camp Counselor. Instead of talking to Vern, Ernest works at a Camp where he is the handy man and quickly turns into a counselor because of the camps shortage (see the movie for your question of how and why). If you like Jim Varney's sense of humor and his Ewwwwwwweeewwwwwwww (watch and see the look on his face when he sees a toilet in need of help). Trouble seems to find him and while he tries to get troubled youths from a nearby detention center to win their respect, be their friend and help them as well, Ernest finds himself in a "quarry" of trouble later on. John Vernon, Iron Eyes Cody, and Lyle Alzado co-star.
