Finn Wolfhard, known for his role in Stranger Things, is stepping into the director’s chair in the upcoming horror-comedy film Hell of a Summer. The new trailer, released by Neon, takes viewers on a thrilling journey filled with campfires, lake days, Ouija boards, and escaping a serial killer.

The film follows the story of Jason Hochberg, a 24-year-old camp counselor who arrives at Camp Pineway with the belief that his biggest problem is feeling disconnected from his teenage co-workers. Little does he know that a masked killer is lurking on the campgrounds, targeting counselors and picking them off one by one.

Wolfhard, along with co-writer and director Billy Bryk, brings this chilling tale to life. The talented cast includes Fred Hechinger, Pardis Saremi, Abby Quinn, and D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai. Together, they navigate the treacherous grounds of the camp, battling the unseen killer while trying to stay alive.

While the film promises an exciting narrative, the Hollywood Reporter review suggests that the mystery of the killer may not be as captivating as expected. Despite this, the twist in the story delivers a satisfying outcome and sets the stage for an enjoyable third act. However, the directors struggle to establish a truly creepy atmosphere, as the film leans more towards comedy than horror.

Wolfhard’s rise to fame began with his breakout role in Stranger Things in 2016. Since then, he has become a familiar face in the horror genre, starring in films like It and The Turning. With Stranger Things wrapping up its fifth and final season in December, fans eagerly anticipate its release this year.

Hell of a Summer is set to hit theaters on April 18. As Finn Wolfhard takes a stab at directing, he aims to deliver a unique blend of horror and comedy, creating an entertaining experience for audiences. So grab your popcorn and prepare for a wild ride as you join Wolfhard and his friends in this chilling summer camp adventure.
