Santa Mira High is a competitive place, where even the principal challenges students to strive for excellence in every regard. No one hears this message more than Angela, who's convinced this is her year to join the newspaper staff, get in with the popular crowd, and make the cheerleading team. But the popular girls are led by Stacy, who's quick with a put-down and often more than a little mean. When Stacey suddenly winds up stabbed multiple times and left on a neighbor's doorstep, her death rocks the entire close-knit community of Santa Mira. The police have no real leads or any evidence as to who the killer is, while the high school kids go after their own candidate for the crime. Now that the FBI has been called in and the media are becoming increasingly involved, will revealing the truth further divide the once-peaceful town? A long-time cable TV favorite based on a real case from a decade earlier, DEATH OF A CHEERLEADER from veteran director William A. Graham (Return to the Blue Lagoon) brought together younger stars Kellie Martin (Life Goes On) and Tori Spelling (Beverly Hills, 90210), alongside prolific veteran players Valerie Harper (Rhoda) and Eugene Roche (Soap). This high school potboiler, originally broadcast under the title A Friend to Die For, also features supporting roles by James Avery (The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air), Christa Miller (Shrinking) and Terry O'Quinn (The Stepfather).

John Goodman is at his uproarious best as the William Castle-inspired movie promoter Lawrence Woolsey, who brings his unique brand of flashy showmanship to the unsuspecting residents of Key West, Florida. It's 1962, and fifteen-year-old fan Gene Loomis (Simone Fenton) can't wait for the arrival of Woolsey, who is in town to promote his latest offering of atomic power gone berserk, Mant! But the absurd vision of Woolsey's tale takes on a sudden urgency as the Cuban Missile Crises places the real threat of atomic horror just 90 miles off the coast. With the help of Woolsey's leading lady, Ruth (Cathy Moriarty), the master showman gives Key West a premiere they'll never forget. Anything can happen in the movies, and everything does in this hilarious tribute to a more innocent (and outrageous) time in American cinema.
