2012 · 110 min

A grim, slow-building spiral of bad luck and worse choices, watching ordinary people make everything worse.

Overview
While an unseen serial killer stalks the imaginary town of Bluefish, New York, the accidental vehicular homicide of a young vandal by a local drug dealer leads to a case of mistaken identity that precipitates a cycle of violence and death among a house full of partying teenagers who have reunited for the first time since graduating from high school the previous year.
