Meadowoods (Blu-ray)

In a sleepy and boring small town, three college students, desperate to make their mark, plan a savage and brutal murder. Electing to keep a video journal to memorialize their bizarre pact, they plot in secret, devising a homemade death chamber that will allow them to see, hear, feel and linger over their victim's agony and final moments of life. Then, chosen at random, a fellow student becomes this victim when she is to receive perhaps the most violent and horrifying of all fates. The default leader of this frightening trio directs the physical and psychological terror, even as contention and hostility within the group threaten to jeopardize their twisted plan, culminating in a crazy and chilling conclusion. "Meadowlands" showcases thrilling performances by Michael Downey ("The Whole Truth") and Kerry Goodwin ("The Master").  This Blu-ray edition includes a terrifying, never-before-seen alternate ending.
