About this movie

Set in the not so distant future, in Any Town USA, sixteen year old Herman Howards (Garrett Backstrom) makes a fateful decision. He enters his suburban school and kills thirty nine students, two teachers, and a police officer. Just before his arrest he emails his idol, journalist Lax Morales (Norman Reedus). "I want to tell my story on your show." Lax, haunted by his own fateful past and the loss of his love Isa Luz (Martha Higareda), now sits face to face with Herman. As he helps Herman to explore and understand his demons Lax must finally face his own.

Ratings and reviews

I freaking love this movie. I found it to be entertaining as well as informative. I love the characters, even Herman. The acting and the directing are both fabulous. The way the story and the flashbacks were told could have been very confusing if it weren't for the brilliant writing and, again, directing. Norman Reedus is a brilliant actor and he was cast perfectly in the role of Lex Morales. It's like the character was written with him in mind. I recommend this movie to everyone. I give this two wholehearted thumbs up. Great job.

Wow so powerful I love it, Norman Reedus made a point at the end of the movie... It's not the kids fault, it's the adults fault for not paying attention to their kids... The kids are kids not parents or have to be there own parents because their parents are not around... Parents be the parents to your kids...

Norman Reedus does an incredible job in this movie. It is an interesting look into the mind of a kid that does a school shooting. Norman's character has a dark past himself but has grown from it. This is one of my favorite movies that he has done.
