Ten by Gretchen McNeil

This 2012 YA thriller keeps many of the tropes and plot details of the original:

Group of teens invited to an exclusive house party on an island (the original is also set on an island)
They receive a creepy DVD (okay, it was 2012) with the message: Vengeance is Mine
A storm cuts them off from the outside world
One by one, someone murders them
