The Basic Eight by Daniel Handler

2.0

It tries real hard to be edgy. It tries real hard to be a caricature of high school. It doesn't get either one right. It's just a not very interesting story of a bunch of really vile teens with an ending so absurd it's...well...absurd.

This would make a great b movie. Right up there with like, Teaching MS.Tingle, The Faculty, and The In Crowd. But it's not worth more than 90 minutes on a lazy Saturday afternoon.
