The CW is debuting a new reality show on July 16 called Killer Camp, a U.K. import that feels like a wonderfully silly hybrid of a lot of beloved reality shows: Whodunnit, Murder in Small Town X, The Mole, Big Brother, and even some Love Island thrown in.
The idea is that 11 strangers were cast on what they thought was a summer camp reality show, but when they arrived, it turned out to be a murderous game of “find the killer” hidden amongst them. The killer is acting as a saboteur in challenges because the money the cast fails to win goes into a pot for the killer. In the end, if the cast figures out who the killer is, they split the pot. But if the killer remains undiscovered, he or she gets the money.
Every night, the killer will choose one person to be “murdered” by Bruce, the deranged camp handyman. The show aired in the U.K. over five nights leading up to Halloween last fall; now it will air over five weeks on Thursdays at 8 p.m. ET/PT on The CW.
