Scarfies (1999)

Forget the typical student flat-share drama. *Scarfies* delivers a uniquely Kiwi dark comedy that starts with a dream come true—a free, fully-powered house in Dunedin—and spirals into a claustrophobic nightmare of moral compromise. The real hook isn't just the squalid, bohemian energy, but the tension that builds when the group discovers the catch. It’s a sharp, unsettling blend of youthful arrogance and creeping dread that will appeal to anyone who loves character-driven stories where a single poor decision sets off an avalanche of consequences.
