Urban Legend Summary
MPAA Rating: R
Director: Jamie Blanks
Genres: Horror
Rating:

Australian director Jamie_Blanks helmed this teen horror film set at Pendleton University. Campus legend has it that 25 years earlier Pendleton was the site of a mass murder by a demented abnormal psych instructor who killed six students and then himself. However, no proof of the prof's deed remains. Urban legends are the subject of a course in American folklore taught by Professor Wexler (Robert_Englund). When a series of bizarre deaths occur on the campus, assertive student Natalie thinks they are murders based on urban legends, but classmates Brenda (Rebecca_Gayheart), ambitious journalism major Paul (Jared_Leto), and practical joker Damon (Joshua_Jackson) claim it's just a coincidence. Then Natalie begins to realize that she's the next victim. Since Joshua_Jackson is a co-lead on TV's Dawson's_Creek, an inside joke surfaces when a radio plays a bit of the Dawson's_Creek theme (Paula_Cole's I Don't Want to Wait). Bhob Stewart, Rovi
