What's the name of that movie?

Calling all movie buffs!
I'm looking for a few movies that I haven't seen except for the trailers on dark horizons years ago. I can't even find them using google without wading through 1000 emo blogs. Please don't make me wade through emo blogs.

The first one is quite clear in my memory. It's about some jock that gets kidnapped, walks back out of the woods on a road. He goes to class, the teacher calls out his name, he put up his hand but the teacher ignores him. He thinks it's a joke, he gets mad and then realizes he's a ghost. He then has to find out where his body is or he will die for real.

Number two must be an indie film. It's about a teen that I think killed himself and is in purgatory. He's looking for his girlfriend who he hears also killed himself, but then picks up a hitchhiker girl. It's a road trip movie, not a horror movie.

Last one is really really vague but I really really want to see this one. I can only remember one scene which might have been the trailer. It's set in suburbian America. A teenager goes to his neighbors house who are having a barbeque party. He goes to the poolhouse (or bedroom?) where his friend lives, but when he opens the door he sees his friend hung himself. He then closes the door as if he didn't see anything and walks out, along the way the mother asks if he seen her son, he says he's fine and keeps walking. The guy was a dealer and it's most likely that teens on drugs or fake gloss of suburbia was the theme of the movie.

I think I remember more details of the films but I just don't know for sure if those details are from those films or just echoes of films I've seen before (false memories and memory associations, which is what happens when one ponders too much about something). However, these are the parts I know for sure did appear in those films.


I have a soft spot for gloomy teen movies.
Since they don't pull much crowds they don't appear in theathers much and aren't constant repeated on tv. Feel free to plug names if you seen a good movie that fits this sub genre. It's a real hassle finding them, and I usually just stumble upon them by accident.

The Chumscrubber

I actually liked The Chumbscrubber.  It tries a little too hard but gives that eerie feeling I like in that type of movie.  If you want a really creepy/disturbing movie try Bully from 2001.  It fits the mold of "gloomy teen movies" quite well!

YES! How the heck did you find them so fast? Do you have an IMDBPro account, maybe?

Ah, I'd got numbers two and three but Darth is too fast

Nah, no pro account.  I recognized #1 and #3 right away and had to dig a bit for #2.  It was vaguely remembered (though I've never seen it, just remember hearing about it).
