After DJ is murdered while trying to hold off the killer, Miri and Parker attempt to hide in the lake house. In the ensuing melee, Miri falls out a window and breaks her leg, forcing her to play dead when the killer investigates outside. In a brutal kitchen fight scene, Parker kills their attacker.

Like the screenwriter's iconic slasher Scream, Sick has a killer fake out when it comes to the killer’s identity. The first masked killer is Benji’s unnamed older brother, who helps his parents get their revenge on Parker. This twist is barely mentioned in Sick’s ending, and the parents don’t even say the name of their eldest son on-screen. However...

Like the teen heroes of Williamson’s earlier hits such as Dawson’s Creek, Parker and Miri can be self-obsessed and, in Parker’s case, thoughtless about their priv...
