Awards: 3 wins & 7 nom

Info: After a post-graduation Fourth of July beer blast, four tipsy teens accidentally smash up a pedestrian with their car, and, in a panic, dispose of the almost-dead body in the ocean. Sure enough, the following summer, the reunited group is stalked by a mysterious figure clad in fisherman’s garb–replete with fish hook. A putative echo of screenwriter Kevin Williamson’s mega-hit “Scream,” substituting that movie’s inside-jokiness for genuine feelings of guilt and angst.
