good movie- i found it to be very unique- not at all scary though.
I have to say though, the movie was ruined by adding the stupid,oblivious,preppy blonde who would run upstairs into the trouble rather than outside.

It was pretty interesting, to say the least. I liked the whole idea around it, but I didn't quite like the way they put it all together. Overall, it was pretty good.

The only thing I liked about this movie was when they are all in the appartment getting ready to play, and that one guy that gets killed by the horse carrage says...
"Screw this cinamatic foreplay... I WANT TO FUUUUUCCCCCKK!"

Lowered expectations. That's what I had before watching this movie, and I must say, it managed to deliver in that respect. But with a movie about a video game that kills people, you can't really get your hopes too high in the first place...
So the story is this: mysterious first person shooter/horror survival game eventually kills you in the same fashion as you die in the game...sort of. And how does it do this, exactly? Via an evil spirit of course! More specifically, the spirit of Elizabeth Bathory, who is released when you first play the game; when it's finally game over for you, she kills you in a manner befitting the way you died in the game (stabbing, run over with a horse-drawn carriage, etc.).
But the plot and story gain SO many holes trying to do this, that you never really understand why it's all happening, which is the most frustrating part about watching this movie (besides the lack of gore or nudity which most cheesy horror movies have in spades to make up for their awfulness). Inconsistancies run rampant throughout the film; first, you can only die by playing the game. Then, all of a sudden, when nobody wants to play anymore, the game starts to play for you! How convenient! And one minute the game is a survival horror, the next it's a multiplayer run-and-gun first person shooter...just make up yer mind, ok?
I found none of the characters all that likeable (even the hot ones), and especially didn't like the character played by Malcolm in the Middle's Frankie Muniz; he acted even MORE like a geek here than he does on the show! And the upside down poker visor? Not really doing it for me. So in the end, we never find out who made the game, or why, or how the first victim came to receive it in the first place; I guess as it stands, we can just assume that evil ghosts are incredibly skilled at single-handedly making next-gen video games...don't waste yer time on this piece of crap.
I give this movie 1 horse-drawn carriage out of 5.

I don't know if anyone remembers when the movie Stay Alive came out a few months ago but Jason and I were watching it last night and let me forewarn you: If you should ever have the opportunity to see this movie, then I would suggest doing something else.... like counting cracks in the sidewalk or staring at a vending machine. This week's stupid film is about a group of young people with names like Hutch, Swink, Phineus, Loomis and October. Oh, and an Abigail; she's the odd duck, I guess. These people live in a magical, hurricane-free version of New Orleans and are supposed "serious gamers". Hutch has a job doing something incredibly vague, but all his boss wants to do talk to him about is gaming. Abigail is a total stranger whom Hutch meets at a funeral when she comes up and starts snapping pictures of grievers -- a horror film's idea of a "cute meet," I guess. The funeral is for Loomis, who dies with two other teens [who are only shown having sex in the doggy style position and the guy is wearing a pig mask. Why? I have no fucking clue.] in the film's prologue after staying up all night, jacked up on Red Bull and playing a video game called Stay Alive: a gothic horror game set in a haunted mansion in the Louisiana bayous. He failed to heed the game's title advice and was subsequently killed for real in exactly the same way his game character died. [I take this to mean that next time I play Super Mario Bros., there's every chance I will thereafter be killed by turtles.] Anyways, when three teens are found murdered, the first thing all their friends do is... attend the funeral. The second thing they do is immediately load up the game. The central premise has promise upon first sight, but it is ruined by lazy characterizations and even lazier plotting. It's THE RING, but with video games. When Hutch's boss, Miller dies in the game and is then found dead himself in exactly the same way, Hutch and company begin to suspect that what happens in the video game is becoming a reality. As they set out to discover the origins of the game before they, too, fall victim to its curse, it becomes apparent that the supernatural killer is none other than Elizabeth Bathory, aka "The Blood Countess," a real-life 17th-century HUNGARIAN serial killer who allegedly claimed over 600 lives. There's a fascinating and terrifying story to be told about Elizabeth Bathory, and this isn't it. Conveniently, she's relocated to New Orleans and somehow managed to sneak in a few programming and art classes to stealthily produce a video game in which in order to beat her, you have to throw wild roses at her in the game and real life. NOT ROSES!!!! Terrifying, I know. And if you die in the game though, the Countess has it rigged so that she can come by and kill you the same way in real life. What a tricky bitch. At heart, it's an incredibly dumb story. It's a fucking awful movie... but it's hard to hate a flick where someone can say, in all seriousness and with great emotion, "Somebody ran my brother down with a horse-drawn carriage! I'm gonna find out who did it and hurt them." Wow. Just wow.. If any of these characters were halfway decent gamers (or even hackers), their problems would be solved, but none of these numbskulls even tries to simply beat the game... apparently it's a lot easier to drive nails into someone's head, neck, and heart, then set her blood on fire than it is to take the afternoon off and beat the fucking game. Overall... This movie was gayer than Brokeback Mountain.
