Review of River's Edge (1986) by Stacie — 17 Sep 2007
This depicts a sense of alienation and moral vacuousness among adolescents that has, unfortunately, only grown in the fifteen years since this film was released. A teen murders his girlfriend, and his circle of friends debates what to do.
Some want to hide the body and protect the boy, others want to turn him in. A disturbing study of teens forced with ethical choices who have little, if any, experience or basis for making such choices.
A horror story and a tragedy.
