Roughhouse

Neil Karp has spent most of his high school life as a professional burnout, but with college looming on the horizon he has decided to salvage some form of future by cleaning up his act. Unfortunately, with one impulsive and altruistic action on behalf of his friends Sam and Matt, Neil riles up the school's drug dealers. This alone would be a big enough problem for Neil and his pals, but as the gang ramp up their intimidation, a dark secret from a bloody, nightmarish childhood summer comes back to haunt Neil. A dangerous, otherworldly interloper with dubious notions of friendship has returned, one who could be Neil's biggest ally, or his greatest threat, against the town's violent criminals. Things quickly turn from bad to worse for Neil, but with no one else to turn to he becomes dependent on the eccentric and sadistic companion from his past, and this friend likes to roughhouse.
