Mean Creek
Inspired by several classic cinematic tales of modern adolescence - from "The Outsiders" to "River's Edge" and "Stand By Me" - and with more than a hint of the atmospheric terror of "Deliverance", this is the story of a group of youths who embark on a boating trip that goes horribly wrong. When the taunting, overweight George (Josh Peck) beats up 12-year-old Sam (Rory Culkin) at school, Sam's brother and his friends decide it's time to teach the bully a lesson. They invite him along on a boat trip through a local but fairly remote area to celebrate Sam's birthday. Their plans for revenge involve stripping George and leaving him naked and alone in the middle of nowhere. But as the day unfolds, George's true character begins to emerge and the scheming buddies realise that, rather than being a bully, he is just a misunderstood kid desperate to be accepted as part of the gang. This revelation leads most of the group to agree to abandon their plan, but one of their number is determined to take some form of retribution. When an innocent game of "Truth or Dare" triggers a moment of tragic misjudgement, the result is one that leads those involved into the very heart of darkness itself. A chilling and deeply effecting story of friendship, responsibility and morality.
