THE LAST OF SHEILA

Checked out the Herbert Ross film.  Maybe  it could be remade with a younger, bitchier cast today. 

Sheila was James Coburn's wife.  She was killed in a hit-and-run accident the year before.  Coburn, emerging from mourning, invites six people to go on a trip with him aboard his yacht.  There, he unveils a game they will all be forced to play.  He hands out six cards.  Each holds a secret.  They soon realize, the secrets are their own.

Coburn is playing a sadistic game, seeking to unmask his wife's killer.  The game however turns deadly when Coburn is found murdered.

Could make for an interesting indie.  Set it in a private high school.  The upper crust.  And watch how a small group of friends turn on one another once the lights go out.
