H8RZ (2015)


Alex, the very uncouth and unattractive outcast is being interrogated after a couple of students and a teacher are found dead and burned by attorney Laura Sedgewick. A group of students end up in detention after cheating on an exam, later to end up dead. But all for cheating on a test? Hmm, not quite just that alone. What do desperate students entailing a class president, his pretty and popular girlfriend, and two class clowns, one who is a computer genius, and one outcast all equate to? TROUBLE!!!


They all end up hacking the school's computer system to change their grades. I mean I am pretty sure we have all done something somewhat dishonest, even if it wasn't as nefarious in our academic career. Cheating on tests, skipping classes, etc. a good majority of us have done that. It never haunted me after all these years. However, for Jack, the class president, Carla, his girlfriend, Cameron, the trouble maker and computer genius, Ricky, the other troublemaker, and Alex, someone from beyond the grave is tormenting their conscience. Brittany Tammand, a student who had committed suicide, taunts them via computer, letting them know that she is well aware of their crime and blackmails them to do certain "tasks". Apparently, Jack had something to do with Brittany before she died. Hence, Jack repeating Brittany's name over and over again in the hospital after he was severely burned. 

However, the true identity of the blackmailer is revealed to not be Brittany's ghost, but their very own Science teacher Faustin. He witnessed Cameron hacking into the school's computer system and now blackmails them into coming up with a huge amount of cash that most will never see in this lifetime, or else he will go to the authorities. Ricky considers turning them all in including himself but his family is forced to move back to Russia, and Carla overdoses on pills. Alex then figures out a way to steal 5 million dollars. They use fake IDs to embezzle money and add it to the school account. They finally pay up Faustin to get him off their backs, however, Cameron hears nothing of it, and attacks Faustin. Faustin pulls out a gun and kills Cameron and Carla. He too gets fatally injured in the scuffle. Jack gets shot and is severely burned as the lab where the altercation occurred, sets on fire. Alex is warned by the attorney to keep this incident a secret and get the hell away. She and the principal check the school account and see that all that money is gone. All of that money gets deposited into Alex's account....



The principal gets a very haunting video message from Brittany Tammand. She reveals that she was with Jack and he had used her while he was still with Carla. Carla then had turned the whole school against her, and Cameron and Ricky too had tried to use her. This all led to her wanting to commit suicide. In closing Brittany swears revenge on the haters and starts banging her head against the desk repeatedly, causing a bloody mess. Laura then sees the eerie coincidence. Alex is Brittany Tammand, and she is the one who murdered her classmates...
