Bad Reputation is a 2005 American Rape and Revenge Slasher Movie.Michelle is a dorky high school student who has just been asked out by the local big man on campus. She excitedly accepts and goes to a party he's holding. However, while there, her date leads his buddies in gang-raping her and branding her the school slut. Now, with nobody believing her and with no other recourse, Michelle dolls herself up and uses her newfound bad reputation to slash her way through everybody who's ruined her life.Not to be confused with the Joan Jett song of the same name or the 2018 documentary about her.

Adults Are Useless: Michelle's mother and the school's guidance counselor both blame her for what happened, the former overtly and the latter passive-aggressively. The sole police officer who appears also comes off as rather blasé in regards to Steve's death.
