Unusual Suspects, The

Synopsis:
One crime. Four high school students. And one angry principal. This hilariously action-packed comedy caper unites four unlikely students who may not have a lot in common on the surface. But they do share one thing -- utter animosity towards the man who's haunted their high school years. Will they get their revenge?
