Has anyone else seen this? I just saw this today and I thought it was great and deserved its own thread :P It's a we bit strange... its pretty much modernized film-noir. The story is pretty much like a good ol fasion murder mystery from the 30s modernized and set in a high school setting (though the kids are all like in their late 20s but it worked for this).

So did anyone see this? Care to discuss the ending? I was a little unsure of what exactly happened.

How was that a surprise? Just curious, since it is shown in the opening scene and they even show that on the box cover... Since it was a detective movie, I figured the rest of the movie after that opening was going to be him trying to figure out who and why she was killed.

I dont know, I guess I went in with some hope that she didnt die.
When I saw the trailer, I assumed she was kidnapped or something you know?
