A high school boy murders his girlfriend, but nobody believes him; he shows off her naked body by the river's edge, though none of his slacker friends turn him in. Inspired by Anthony Jacques Broussard's 1981 murder of Marcy Conrad. A strange film of teenage apathy and disaffection. Particularly memorable performances by Crispin Glover and Dennis Hopper.
