New Grenada is a planned community in the rolling plains west of Denver. It is a soulless oasis of split levels home coffee mornings and crushing blandness where the adults strive to attract investment and their neglected kids are left to make their own entertainment. When the youth centre closes at dusk this manifests in vandalism drug-taking theft and general hooliganism resulting in the accidental shooting of a police officer. When the town's parents gather the next night to discuss the degenerating situation they soon discover the kids have had all they can take.... Starring Matt Dillon (Crash Wild Things) in his first screen role Over The Edge is a beautiful yet starkly realised social treatise about the rhythms of teenage life made at a time where youth crime was rampant across middle America.
