Synopsis

Drama / 6 f At first, Hazelwood Jr. High is like any other middle school - cliques and crushes, dances and detention.

But when a new girl unwittingly steps into a "love triangle," a revenge plot is hatched, and events spin out of control, escalating into a shocking and unimaginable climax.

Based on a true story.

"Mr. Urbinati's script is based on court testimony and psychological and police reports.

Even in the era of Jeffrey Dahlmer and Susan Smith, the story holds its own grotesquerie; you can see why Mr. Urbinati was hooked by it.

It takes the absolutely ordinary subject of teenage rivalry and revenge pranks, gives it an exotic lesbian twist and then pushes it to the outer limits of sociopathic behavior.

Mr. Elliott, Mr. Urbinati and the cast do nicely in conveying the solemn earnestness of young love and social warfare."

- Ben Brantley, The New York Times
