The Chumscrubber was a film different then most. Yes it showed teen angst, but it dealth with it differently. I enjoyed watching The Chumscrubber, I found it to be funny, in a dark satirical way, and also sad. The film had an amazing cast both on the adult and teenager side, starring: Glenn Close, William Fichtner, Ralph Fiennes, John Heard, Lauren Holly, Jason Isaacs, Allison Janney, Carrie-Anne Moss, Rita Wilson, Jamie Bell, Justin Chatwin, Rory Culkin, Lou Taylor Pucci, and Camilla Belle. The film was set in a California Suburbia. When Dean Stiffle (Jamie Bell) finds his best friend Troy after he committed suicide he neglects to tell anyone. The local school drugs dealers want to find Troys stash of drugs so they kidnap Deans brother Charlie, but accidently take the wrong Charlie, and the childs parents never even notice. The film is about how parents don't even pay attention to there children, or to other people for that matter. The film is Arie Posin's first full lenght feature film, and it is very good, and we can except some great films from him in the future.
