Extracurricular
Miriam, Derek, Ian, and Jenny are overachieving high school students doing everything by the book. Straight As, sports, yearbook, band, and – when coursework allows – planning and executing elaborate murders.
Why it matters
A cold-as-ice high school thriller where overachievers channel their ambition into meticulously planned murders, turning the idyllic campus setting into a chilling crime lab.
- Villains as protagonists: rare breed of horror that dares to make killers the center of attention without sugarcoating their brutality.
- Methodical murder set pieces echo true crime obsession, with a tactical precision that horror rarely attempts.
- For fans of cerebral thrillers and school-set horrors that blur morality and meticulous planning.
- Acting and character work feel uneven, but the film’s commitment to cold calculation keeps the tension alive.
