The Homecoming

A former small-town golden boy returns to his hometown with his new girlfriend, only to find that his onetime high-school sweetheart isn't willing to let go of the past. In the working-class town where Mike (Matt Long) grew up, football is everything. A few months after leaving for Northwestern University on a scholarship, Mike arrives back home for Christmas break with his pretty new girlfriend, Elizabeth (Jessica Stroup), in tow. Seeing Mike with another woman comes a quite a shock to the people around town; back in high school Mike and his girlfriend Shelby (Mischa Barton) were a fairly hot item, but while Mike has moved on, Shelby has not. The former homecoming queen would like nothing more than to remove Elizabeth from the picture — permanently — and when a freak car accident leaves Mike's new girlfriend at the mercy of his bitter ex, Shelby prepares to do whatever it takes to win her old boyfriend back once and for all.
