Cry_Wolf

A very tame slasher flick that more than borrows the plot from Gossip. A group of spoiled preppies at a private school devise a (supposedly) clever game of "who can lie the best" when they come up with a story about a serial killer that they spread around campus via email and text messaging. Of course the killer is real and begins to hunt down those who told his story. It's bloodless, mildly interesting, but ultimately predictable and in the end it thinks it's as cool as Scream, but it's really just a pale imitation.
