Scarecrow Gone Wild (2004)

A baseball team decides to haze its new members by taking them to a cornmaze where legend has it a kid was accidentally killed years ago during hazing. One of the recruits, a scrawny diabetic kid who is usually protected by the assistant coach, angers the team and is left tied to the post next to a scarecrow.

When the other recruits are ordered back into the maze to untie him, they find him unresponsive and call the assistant coach who doesn't answer as he's busy knocking boots.

When our hero finally gets the twenty messages, he rescues the kid from the corn maze, calls in a favor with a local doctor, and leaves him for treatment in what appears to be an old hospital. He's the only patient and the only other people there are the doctor and nurse.

The baseball team goes to the beach with their girls and soon they hear whistling which turns out to be the scarecrow from the corn maze. Huh? Turns out a kid really did die years ago during hazing and was buried him under the scarecrow. So now the scarecrow aka dead kid is back to avenge his death.... on a bunch of stupid kids who had nothing to do with the original killing, but heck they're unlikable, so why not?

The other kids go to the beach, the scarecrow shows up, and everytime he whistles, someone dies. Stupid kids....
