Sam's older brother and his friends decide to get revenge on George for the bullying and invite him on a boating trip for the weekend.They plan to make him strip and jump into the river, before abandoning him and forcing him to walk home naked. Also tagging along is Sam's friend Millie (Schroeder), who urges Sam to call the plan off.Divided opinions in the group cause the plan to backfire horribly, and they are forced to deal with the consequences of their actions. | |

Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other | |
| Mean Creek / int_10dcbe05 | comment |
Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: Downplayed. While Marty's brother Kyle is an abusive asshole, he seems genuinely concerned for Marty when he finds out about his role in George's death and agrees to not say anything about it to protect Marty. During their final scene together, Kyle tries to say something heartfelt to Marty but gives up after either he can't think of anything or can't bring himself to say it. | |

The Bully | |
| Mean Creek / int_1b60dcba | comment |
The Bully: George and Marty. The film explores the reasoning behind both cases while never excusing either: George is actually a mostly nice kid, but seems to have some sort of disorder that makes it hard for him to comprehend that what he's doing is wrong. When he and Clyde discuss a previous incident where George hurt Clyde, George genuinely can't comprehend the idea that he may have attacked Clyde for no good reason and asserts that Clyde must have done something to warrant it. Marty comes from a Dysfunctional Family with a drug-addicted mother and an abusive older brother. He also has a lot of lingering trauma resulting from his father's suicide. | |

Kick the Dog | |
| Mean Creek / int_34dcfc96 | comment |
Kick the Dog: Yes, George wasn't wrong for being upset when he finds out why he was invited to the trip. However, him taunting Marty about his dead father repeatedly was an unnecessarily low-blow. It also proves fatal, as it causes Marty to go ballistic and shove George off the boat, which in turn causes George to panic and drown. | |

Country Matters | |
| Mean Creek / int_56240281 | comment |
Country Matters: During his tirade, George calls Millie "a JAPnote Jewish American Princess, meaning a Jewish Woman who is incredibly selfish and materialistic. It's been mostly overshadowed for its other meaning as an Anti-Japanese Slur. cunt." What makes his use of the word particularly shocking is that Millie is arguably the most sensible and innocent one here. | |

Ambiguous Time Period | |
| Mean Creek / int_7eb2bc15 | comment |
Ambiguous Time Period: There really isn't any indication that the movie takes place in the 2000s. Especially when Rocky and Sam play would you rather, they talk about Shannen Doherty and Heather Locklear who were popular in the early to mid nineties. They also use pagers and landlines instead of cell phonesnote Granted, they were still used even in 2004, but cellphones are just becoming more popular, so it still somewhat counts, and George gets Sam a Super Soaker as a present. | |

Asshole Victim: Subverted, bordering on a deconstruction. The group start to realise their mistake as soon as George shows he might not be so bad, being happy to be invited for the trip.

The Friend Nobody Likes | |
| Mean Creek / int_a861560f | comment |
The Friend Nobody Likes: George is happy to be brought along the trip, but his lack of social skills causes his attempts to bond with everyone else to come across as incredibly awkward. There's also the elephant in the room that he was only brought along so that Sam's older brother and the others could cruelly prank him in retaliation for him beating up Sam. Clyde also seems to be this, with Marty's constant cruel remarks about him. Though, Rocky at least tries to include him and comforts him after they plan the initial prank. | |

Totally Radical: Averted to a degree. There's no eighties slang from the kids (the creator is an '80s kid), but for some reason they act as if Super Soakers are the best thing ever, and reference fantasizing about Heather Locklear and Shannen Doherty, who would have been in their 40s and 30s respectively when the film came out. | |

Determinator | |
| Mean Creek / int_e567510d | comment |
Determinator: Deconstructed. By the halfway point, Marty is the only one in the group who is willing to go along with the plan. Too bad George dies because of it. | |

Not Evil, Just Misunderstood | |
| Mean Creek / int_f48d0f54 | comment |
Not Evil, Just Misunderstood: George. He's actually a very lonely kid with an Ambiguous Disorder which makes him very defensive of his camera. | |
