Log Line

Set in and around a small town high school in Kansas, Beth is a naive senior student who asks her two new friends, the slick and outgoing Julie, and her boyfriend Scott to help her cover up the accidental killing of the hated school principal. But they are observed by Terra, a student nominated for prom queen, who blackmails them into rigging the election in her favor. Undaunted, Beth, Julie and Scott turn to the most popular/hated student Cherry to kill Terra for them. Cherry agrees to the hit, but only if she gets Terra's nomination for prom queen and the crown as well which sets off more complications for all involved.

Synopsis

A daringly anarchic vision of American society, PEP SQUAD chronicles the days leading up to a Kansas high school’s senior prom. Eight girls are nominated for the coveted title of prom queen, but before anyone can collect the crown, they must survive the psychological and physical attacks from their classmates. At Oak Hill High, the students are jaded, the principal is a lecherous creep, and friends stab each other in the back for one night’s fleeting honor in this masterful satire that plays like “a BLOOD SIMPLE remake by JOHN HUGHES” (*New Times L.A.*). With the vendettas heating up and the body count rising, will anyone be around to collect the crown?
