I Know How Many Runs You Scored Last Summer
I Know How Many Runs You Scored Last Summer is a 2008 Australian low-budget comedy-horror film, written and directed by Stacey Edmonds and Doug Turner.
Plot
Three amateur cricketers, Wallis, Blake and Peacock, are found murdered, items of cricket equipment being the murder weapons, and after Boyd is bashed to death in a toilet cubicle with a cricket bat, police begin to suspect a serial killer. The victims had once been members of an under-12 boys' team involved in a bullying scandal.Surviving members of the team are taken by police to a "safe house" at Joadja for their protection, but are soon disobeying their orders, and one by one are picked off in gruesome and humiliating ways by a lanky moustachioed killer in traditional cricketers' apparel, later identified as Phil Philips, the target of the bullying. Much of the mayhem is occasioned by a cricket ball turned to a deadly missile by insertion of six-inch nails, and by stumps with sharpened steel points.
The action is interrupted for a gratuitous steamy shower scene, where Reynolds is played by Arianna Starr, a 'Miss Nude Australia'.
The two police supervising the safe house are killed by Philips and Reynolds, who is revealed as not a police detective but Philips' sister and illicit lover.
