Most Likely to Murder
Directed by Dan Gregor
A comedic homecoming story that mines humor from a washed-up former popular kid's delusions and romantic obsession, blending nostalgia with paranoid conspiracy.
Billy, once the coolest kid in high school, comes back to his hometown 15 years later to find he’s no longer cool and the girl he still has feelings for now dates the former class outcast. Billy becomes obsessed with proving the outcast is a murderer.
