Storyline
Tim, Chris and Rand are campus roommates. They are not the closest of friends. When it is announced as being usual to get the best possible grades as compensation for the psychic stress of a roommates' suicide, Tim and Chris decide to kill Rand. After Rand's "suicide", his girlfriend Natalie takes her life, too. She was the roommate of Chris' girl Emma. Who's tricking who? Written by Julian Reischl <julianreischl@mac.com>

I went in expecting nothing, and was very pleasantly surprised. Matthew Lillard's performance is quirky and very entertaining, but the single reason to see the film is for an early scene which can only be described as spoofing _The Deer Hunter_ with a popular college drinking game. This is a "thriller", but I was laughing for five minutes straight.
