Unlike the sudden burst of angry gunfire at Columbine and, more recently, Santee, the frustrated adolescents in a small Central California town quietly begin to take justice into their own immature hands when one of their numbers is threatened. Led by a psychotic but charismatic teenager, their first “Vengeance” is just a prank to teach a lesson, but soon they begin a campaign of escalating terror as they learn how easy it is to get away with mayhem. As the intensity of their guerilla war against those they have deemed their enemies increases, love blooms between two of the group. At the same time, the young protagonist’s sense of moral indignation at their activities grows until he has his own needs for retribution. The murder of his abusive father becomes an act of primal violence as "The Lord Of The Flies" meets the MTV generation. [Explicit violence]
