Matt's tough little brother also finds out about the body and no one knows quite how the police will learn about the murder or who will be blamed for it.

This is a really good 80's flick. Powerful and moving .. yes, no remorse. The actors were very young and unpolished .. but it's a good watch. 4/5

Very well made true story about a bunch of teens getting mixed up in a murder. Great seeing Keanu Reeves and Crispin Glover young, they really did a good job with the characters. Keanu's acting was more believable back then and now he's become more robotic. Crispin was funny and he's usually more creepy in his movies. Overall, it makes you think at how crazy some people's mindset is mixed with the angst of being a teenager. Worth a watch.

This was a dark story with great acting. Keanu Reeves was perfect for this role, but he still acts the same in all his movies. Definetly one of the overlooked classic films.

What a blast from the past. I vividly recall seeing this for the first time over 20 years ago and found it riveting and disturbing. One of those films that made me want to go home, take a shower, and then reconnect with "normal" humanity. This is a bleak film that, at the time, opened a lot of eyes to the disconnect and cold, hard-edged plight and outlook of modern youth in America. Reeves is quite good in this, even though I am not a big fan of his work; most of the other actors are competent and believable as well. Highly recommended.

A blast from the past indeed. I guess my disturbance back then wasn't so much about the murder, but how the characters depicted slowly out of control while maintaining an unambiguous look on their faces. I would definitely recommend this flix.

Wow I just realized this movie is based on true story. The girl's name is Marisa Conrad & she was raped/murdered by her so called boyfriend. U can Google her story.
