The Final(2010)

Pooper:
The captors torture six of their former bullies and note that everyone is responsible for what happened (i.e., they either bullied the captors or didn’t do anything to stop the bullying). Most of the captors are eventually killed or commit suicide and the press portrays the former bullies as victims.

Long Ending:
The film opens with a disfigured girl walking into a restaurant. The patrons can barely hide their disgust at her physical appearance. The girl breaks down and screams that she never wanted to look like that.

At a local high school, most of the popular kids mercilessly bully the dorky kids. Only Kurtis (Jascha Washington) sticks up for the dorks. The dorks, led by Dane (Marc Donato), devise a plot to get revenge on their tormentors. They host a Halloween party in a home located deep in the woods. The popular kids arrive en masse, as does Kurtis who was not invited. The partygoers are all drugged and chained by the dorks. When the partygoers awaken, the dorks (now the bullies’ captors) explain that they will make the bullies pay. They note that those who didn’t bully them are culpable as well for never standing up to the bullies.

One captive (who was cheating on his girlfriend) is released, but is captured in a booby trap the dorks set up around the perimeter of the property and killed by several dorks who are patrolling the perimeter. The captors begin torturing their former tormentors. One girl, Bridget (Whitney Hoy), apologizes to the dorks. Unwilling to accept the apology, they strap her to a chair and offer to let the main bully off easy if he cuts off Bridget’s fingers. He cuts off two of her fingers before Bridget agrees to cut off his fingers. The captors give Whitney the opportunity to do so, but she refuses. As punishment, they burn half of her face with acid.

Kurtis escapes after one of the captors, grateful for Kurtis’ long-time support and friendship, frees him from his shackles (Dane kills the captor that let Kurtis go). Kurtis evades the perimeter guards and traps and stumbles upon a neighbor’s house. The neighbor is ex-military and Kurtis eventually convinces him that his fellow students are being tortured. The neighbor confronts the kids and kills two perimeter guards before succumbing to wounds suffered in one of the booby traps. Kurtis (who was left behind in the neighbor’s house) calls the police, finds a gun, and returns to the house where his classmates are being tortured.

Kurtis confronts Dane and is shot in the shoulder for his efforts. Dane tries to kill Kurtis, but is shot to death by his fellow captors (they bear no ill will to Kurtis, and also have had enough torture). As the police arrive, the captors begin committing suicide after noting one last time that this could have been avoided if only the bullies had been friendly to them. Another captor says that there are “many more like them” before committing suicide.

Though the media claims that the incident was “unprovoked,” one of the former bullies is seen swallowing a handful of pills to commit suicide (knowing she was culpable for driving the dorks to their actions). It is also revealed that the woman at the beginning of the film was Bridget, who like the rest of the captives, will forever be marked by this experience.
