Bully (2001)

Bully:

Subversive, unglamorous film about high school revenge. Nothing smart about the script or the directorial craft of Larry Clark, yet the end result is an effective drama about teen alienation, pent up agnst and the ills of broken friendships. The characters are either always having sex or high on their drug of choice but with shades of Macbeth thrown in, the movie dives into terrifyingly dark territory. Decent cast includes Brad Renfro as the repressed Marty whose girlfriend Lisa (Rachel Miner) plants the seeds of murdering his bullying, violent best friend (Nick Stahl). They are joined in this endevour by a stoned Michael Pitt and Bijou Philips. Based on a book about a true story.
