It's the end of the summer, and there's just time enough for one last bash. As the big day draws near, three popular yet "love deprived" boys agree that the time has come for them to finally get laid. But while winning the hearts of their female classmates is one thing, getting into their pants is a whole new game. By the time this weekend is over, three lifelong friends will see the world in a whole new light, and create a tale that will be passed down to future freshmen for generations to come. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

A walk by the seashore takes a girl on the first step of an amazing journey in this family-friendly drama. When her father loses his job and money gets tight, 14-year-old Julie Kimbell (Suzanne Marie Doyon) leaves her California home and moves with her family to Manzanita, a small town on the coast of Oregon. Julie, her parents, Robert (Brian McNamara) and Kathryn (Julia Campbell), and her bother, Jimmy (Brian Thompson), settle in with her grandpa Kimbell (Max Gail), who knows more than a little about local legends and history. When Julie has an unexpected encounter with an elk while taking a walk on the beach, she discovers an ancient gold coin. After telling her grandpa and his friend Standing Elk (Floyd Red Crow Westerman) about her experience, they tell Julie about the fabled Tillamook Treasure, a fortune in gold supposedly hidden in Manzanita in the 16th century by Spanish sailors who used nefarious means to protect their treasure from the natives. As Julie learns more of the lore of Manzanita's Native American tribes, she begins experiencing some of the magic of their people, and sees the friendly elk as a spirit link to the fabled events of four centuries before. The Tillamook Treasure took the prize as the Best Family Feature at the 2006 Newport Beach Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

A successful real estate agent, casual drug user, and part-time dealer serves as the catalyst for a lonely single mother's demise in this harrowing tale of addiction starring Daniel Baldwin, Danny Trejo, and Dee Wallace-Stone. Vince Gallagher may be a success in business, but he has never maintained any kind of close emotional ties. These days, however, Vince has grown tired of living alone and is eager to find a good woman to settle down with. One night while out at the restaurant/bar, Vince's friends Katie and Shawn direct his attentions towards the lovely Andrea, who is dining nearby with her daughter and the young girl's sitter. While sitter Connie notices Vince and tries to set the pair up, Andrea is reluctant to befriend a man in a bar and Vince isn't sure he wants to take on an instant family. Later, when Andrea heads to the local real estate office to find a new home and bumps into Vince once again, the two lonely souls begin to grow increasingly close. After Vince and Shawn help Andrea move in, things quickly start to get serious between the newly formed couple. When Vince and Andrea spend a special night together and it's revealed that Vince is into methamphetamine, the frightened woman attempts to kick him out of her house in order to avoid exposing her family to the drug culture. But Vince isn't willing to let go of Andrea quite so easily, and soon convinces her to try the drug so that she may better understand it. Now, as an addiction takes hold and plunges both down a darkened street of despair, the frightening reality of their situation threatens to destroy everything they have worked to hard to build together. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
