Wer einmal lügt, dem glaubt man nicht… Nach dem Mord an einer jungen Frau machen sich einige Schüler einen Spaß und verbreiten das Gerücht, dass ein Serienkiller sein Unwesen treibt. Im Internet künden sie an, wer die nächsten Opfer sein werden. Doch plötzlich sterben diese Menschen tatsächlich, und niemand weiß mehr sicher, was Wahrheit und was Lüge ist… (Verleiher-Text)

There is no way this deserves more than two stars as there was absolutely no trace of a horror atmosphere. It was more of a thriller inspired by standard American high-school slasher films, the story unfolding in a completely predictable way. The final twist was a pleasant surprise for me, though.

The American film Cry Wolf is not badly shot, it has simple cinematography and simple visuals, which basically don’t show any blood. And why not? The film is not based on blood at all. It's based on lies. But there are so many of them at one point that you're no longer even interested in unravelling what happened. And that's certainly not what this film wanted to do. Yet it hastily succeeded in doing so. It’s too overcomplicated.
