Four high school friends believe the local myth that developer Swenson killed a kid for trespassing years earlier and got away with it. When one of the four friends disappears, the remaining three believe Swenson killed their friend and they take revenge. When their friend then shows up alive they must deal with the consequences of crossing the harsh line that separates fantasy from reality. Written by Anonymous
A movie even thought to be filmed in my hometown would have very low expectations..'til now. From 1998 (when it was filmed)to now, I have waited very long for this to come out. And the anticipation has paid off. This was a very enjoyable film for me to watch..Not just because it was filmed somewhere I knew well but because it looked very professional and a story I could relate to. Martin Schenk did a superb job on this project and he was one of the nicest guys I could ever meet while doing the school scenes at my former high school. When it was shown in the local paper that a movie was going to be filmed there, the first thought was "Oh great..."..I mean this is a town barely hitting 3,000 in population, full of loggers and farmers and now the entertainment industry wants to use our little place for something that actually turns out to be very good. If no one has ever lived in a small community then you will see that the attitude the characters in this movie portray are accurate..I won't get into details and spoil it but if you watched it or going to watch it the way they act was something I could relate with growing up somewhere isolated like that. I'm looking forward to the next Martin Schenk project whenever that will be. A great first time director.
