who found a corpse near a cabin by the lake?”
Cabin by the Lake is a black comedy/horror TV movie released in 2000. It tells the story of Stanley, played by Judd Nelson, a script writer who begins killing girls for research for a movie he is writing, where the villain does the same thing. [edit] Synopsis The movie takes place in Summit Lake, where Stanley is renting a cabin to write a script for a new movie where a killer drowns young girls and keeps them underwater as a macabre garden. Incidentally, that is exactly what Stanley is doing.

Plot A screenwriter Stan is working on the screenplay for his new film, Cabin by the Lake. The story involves some man who kills women by drowning them in a lake and dressing and setting up their corpses to create a “garden.” Unfortunately, Stan has taken the motto “Write about what you know” way too far… Comments Over at the IMDB there seems to be an unwritten rule which goes like this: “The crappier the movie, the more glowing the user reviews have to be.” I first realized this when I skimmed the user reviews for The Clown At Midnight, one of which claimed that The Clown At Midnight was “excellent for real horror fans.” I thought the person might have actually meant, “After having to sit through The Clown At Midnight, a merciful bullet to the brain would be excellent for real horror fans,” but, alas, it was not so.
