In the latest episode of our BEST HORROR MOVIE YOU NEVER SAW video series, we take a look at the 2000 dark satirical horror-comedy CHERRY FALLS (BUY IT HERE), directed by Geoffrey Wright (MACBETH), and starring Brittany Murphy (CLUELESS), Michael Biehn (THE TERMINATOR), and Jay Mohr (JERRY MACGUIRE). What was to be the next big slasher and an insightful skewering of the horror genre's often regressive sexual politics, instead went straight to TV (becoming the most expense TV movie ever made) due to a variety of factors behind-the-scenes. But nonetheless, it deserved a wider audience, and we're here to tell you why!
Here's the official synopsis:
A small-town sheriff, Brent Marken (Michael Biehn), discovers the presence of a serial killer in his sleepy hamlet. Since the perpetrator has been targeting only virgins, both male and female, the deaths cause panic in much of the local high school population. Sheriff Marken's daughter, Jody (Brittany Murphy), is among the potential victims, since she has yet to sleep with her boyfriend, Kenny Ascott (Gabriel Mann). Can the lawman stop the killer before he goes after Jody?
