A slick, suspenseful teen slasher that keeps you guessing with jump scares and cliffhangers, easy to binge but never truly terrifying.

Tagline: You'll never see it coming.
Overview: What starts as a YouTube video going viral, soon leads to problems for the teenagers of Lakewood and serves as the catalyst for a murder that opens up a window to the town's troubled past. Everyone has secrets. Everyone tells lies. Everyone is fair game.
How it feels: Dark, tense, eerie and campy. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Mystery, deception, trauma, friendship
Content: Strong violence and gore. Mild sexual content and language.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
