Movie 2010.08.05 - The Vicious Kind

Drama about a dysfunctional family with a painful past. During the long Thanksgiving weekend, big brother Caleb (Adam Scott) fetches little brother Peter (Alex Frost) and his new hot girlfriend Emma (Brittany Snow) and drives them to the family house. Caleb had a recent nasty breakup, so he was having these mood swings throughout the trip. Caleb chances upon Emma in the supermarket and assaults her - calling her a wh0re and threatening to kill her if she breaks Peter's heart. But guess what? Girls really go for that stuff. One night, Caleb sneaks into the family house and haves passionate s3x with Emma. Peter, in the other room, sleeps through it and later wants to try "it" again with Emma, as he's trying to lose his virginity. At the train station, Dad (J.K. Simmons) finds his conscience and admits to some past wrongs, i.e. lying about their mom's alleged affair till she died of cancer. Caleb risks being shot and visits Dad one morning, and all is forgiven.
