Cry_Wolf
Nobody believes a liar... even when they're telling the truth.
Directed by Jeff Wadlow
Produced by Universal Pictures, Rogue Films
A paranoid thriller about teenage liars whose fabricated serial killer warning becomes horrifyingly real, blurring the line between fiction and deadly truth.
After a local woman is murdered, a group of teenage liars create a warning e-mail of a serial killer named “The Wolf”, coming on the next full moon. The teens describe each death method The Wolf uses, but when the described victims actually do start turning up dead, suddenly no one knows where the lies end and the truth begins.
