Cry Wolf

DramaHorrorMysteryThriller90 min

At an elite boarding school, a local woman’s murder becomes the spark for a cruel prank when a group of students invent a serial killer called The Wolf and send out an email warning of the next attack. Julian Morris is among the teens behind the rumor, with Lindy Booth and Jared Padalecki circling the same web of dares, lies, and suspicion. When the killings begin to match the methods they made up, the game turns back on the people who started it. Between dorm rooms, classrooms, and anonymous messages, nobody’s version of the story stays stable for long.
