Putting yourself in the shoes of the game is presumably the lifelong dream of many veteran players.
Spielberg's "Ready Player One" poked straight at the G-spot, making the world's otaku addicted.
However, if the character in the game hangs up, the real player will die with it.
Such an exciting "dream", does anyone dare to do it?
Survival game
Stay Alive
The film opens with a shoddy fifty-cent special effect that makes it hard to believe that this is a 2006 film.
Until the "male protagonist" was killed by the "villain" in the haunted house, the words "Game Over" appeared on the screen.
We just found out that it was just a real-time picture of the horror game Survival...
The curly-haired brother failed to break through the level again, scolding and grinning and closing the game.
After reporting the battle with his friends, he sadly returned to his bedroom to rest.
But in the middle of the night, the huge mansion emitted a series of ghost crying wolf howls.
The curly haired brother got up in a panic to check it out, and found that the roommate's roommate next door had become the appearance of the "execution room" in the game.
Before he could scream, he was attacked by an inexplicable "ghost".
His death method is the same as that of the characters in the game...
The thrilling foreplay ends, and the main male protagonist Hodge (Jon Foster) finally shines.
He was the friend who talked to the curly haired brother on the phone, an ordinary white-collar worker.
At the same time, he is also a top game master, and he has won the company owner (Adam Goldberg) with this trick alone, and his life is quite moist.
On this day, Hodge had just exchanged the game secret for a day off, but received the bad news that the curly hair brother had died unexpectedly.
He had to push away everything he had at hand and rush to his friend's funeral.
The sister of the deceased brings Hodge a backpack containing various "legacies" related to the game by the curly haired brother.
Among them is the mysterious game "Survival", which is still in the stage of internal testing.
You know, this is the last "career" that the curly hair brother was obsessed with before he died.
On the one hand, out of curiosity, on the other hand, it is also for commemoration.
Hodge and his friends decide to hold a game party as usual to complete the survival of the dead.
In addition to Hodge, players also have a dark-haired girl (Samira Armstrong);
Brunette's brother, cynical drag brother (Jimmy Simpson);
A serious science and engineering man who loves to delve into computer technology (Francie Moonitz);
Hodge's newly acquainted classmate of the deceased at the funeral blonde (Sophia Bush);
As well as the boss classmates who hide in the office under the name of overtime to "steal chickens".
A group of 6 people quickly entered the state, but the game was stuck in the login screen.
It seems that without reading the so-called "Elizabeth's Prayer", the game simply cannot continue.
Although the polytechnic man was sure that there was no voice-activated technology at the moment, everyone still read the prayer with the mentality of trying it out.
The game was indeed opened, and the crowd did not think much about it, so they pinched out the character according to their own image, and they could not wait to operate it.
The teaching level is a small female ghost.
Hodge took the lead, pulling out his weapon and easily killing it.
The monster then bursts out a rose, which, according to the narrator, is the ultimate insurance in the game.
After the warm-up, the friends began to kill monsters passionately like ordinary RPG games.
After crossing a cemetery, they finally arrived at "Elizabeth's Castle".
The large force went up to the second floor and found the countess's portrait and diary;
The boss who fights alone mistakenly enters the secret execution room underground.
Everyone came, and the friends simply asked him to survey the terrain.
But the protection time of a rose ended, but the countess in red suddenly came out of nowhere and killed her with a large scissors...
The bloody scene and the sudden shock almost didn't scare the boss on the spot.
The "high emotional intelligence" Hodge proposed to end today's journey and continue to adventure together in the coming day.
The boss has this intention, and quickly packs up his things and "goes home from work".
I never expected that a "ghost" would appear out of thin air in the office building, perfectly reproducing the killing in the game...
The next day, Hodge, who was routinely late for work, faced bad news again.
What surprised him even more was that the boss's death was exactly the same as in the game.
Two consecutive bizarre deaths, Hodge had to make a bold and reasonable guess -
Survival games of unknown origin have some kind of magic/curse that allows players and characters to live and die together.
He quickly found the friends in question and warned them to stay away from the game.
But brother Drag did not listen to persuasion, and insisted on continuing to fight...
Hodge and the others had no choice but to turn around and thoroughly investigate the details of "Survival".
The brunette, who loves Gothic literature, points out that the countess Elizabeth Basser in the game is indeed true.
This strong woman in Hungary in the 16th century, in order to maintain her youth forever, even used the blood and internal organs of young girls as "skin care products".
The execution chamber in the castle was a place of torture, and the cemetery was the burial place of the girls.
After the East Window Incident, the Countess was imprisoned in the tower by angry believers and was not allowed to leave for half a step for the rest of her life.
All the historical elements, all perfectly reproduced by the game...
The crowd became more and more aware that the situation was not good, and quickly called to stop the brother.
Unfortunately, it was too late, and he was driving when he suddenly broke down halfway.
Then a medieval carriage roared past, crushing him to death on the spot for no reason.
This scene is also the same as in the game...
The detective who came later, in the face of the bizarre words of the game otaku, had another set of views -
The 3 homicides are more or less directly related to Hodge, and according to normal logic, he is the first suspect.
The police are unwilling to help, and the fate of the friends can only be controlled by themselves.
They decided to split up and investigate the truth behind the haze on their own.
Hodge and the blonde head to the curly-haired guy's house to try to figure out where he got the game from.
After all, it is a "close friend" in the game industry, and Hodge really found a spare mobile phone that the police ignored, which clearly recorded the address of the game company.
The brunette and the polytechnic man continued to consult the "classics" to find a way to fight the countess.
According to the "Witch Hunting Manual", as long as three iron nails are inserted into the heart, neck and forehead, the witch's soul can be fixed in the body.
Igniting her blood with a flame would destroy her completely.
When the people with a little confidence were about to converge, even the police officer who had played the game with his hands before had also died mysteriously and tragically...
This undoubtedly confirmed the detective's speculations, and he attacked them with a large group of people and horses.
The crowd ran away from home and headed straight for the game company.
However, halfway through, the game in the laptop began to run on its own.
A black-haired girl who smoked outside alone, unfortunately took the lead in the recruitment...
She inadvertently glimpsed a "ghost" in the abandoned building next door, and then magically took the nail and hammer to go deep alone, trying to avenge the brother.
The result, of course, is unbearable...
The remaining 3 people did not dare to slack off and sped up their pace to the game company.
In order to prevent the game from running on its own and killing people on its own, the polytechnic man stayed in the car and actively entered the game, and stood guard in the dual planes of reality and virtuality.
Hodge and Blonde venture into the old-fashioned manor to try to find the mastermind behind the game.
Unexpectedly, the huge manor house has long been abandoned, and the furnishings and arrangements in the room are exactly the same as the "old castle" in the game.
In other words, there is no production company at all, and the entire game is controlled by the "ghost" of the countess...
As soon as she figured out this key message, the blonde was already under attack...
Fortunately, the "polytechnic man" in the game and the real-life Hodge arrived in time to successfully save her with a rose.
This scene shows that reality and the game are completely integrated.
If the people want to escape, they must go to the tower where the countess was imprisoned, and completely destroy her flesh with iron nails and flames.
The behavior of the male remote command of the polytechnic man is tantamount to playing the game and cheating.
Of course the countess would not tolerate it, and with a little "divine power" to keep him out of the car.
Then he personally labeled the escaped "Game Over"...
Reinforcements were gone, and the rest of Lu Hodge and the blonde could only grope on their own.
They took 3 nails from the mottled wall, picked some roses from the yard, and finally reached the tower after a long journey.
All the way to the countess's room, the roses were exhausted...
At this time, the ghost smelled the wind and closed the iron door to separate the two.
Inside Hodge had just met the Countess;
The blonde sister outside was suspended by her soul on the beam...
Fortunately, the iron nail routine really worked, which helped the blonde to get out safely.
However, imprisoning the soul back into her body is tantamount to bringing the countess back from the dead.
Hodge, who was looking for the source of the fire, did not notice that the countess behind him had stood up...
At the moment of crisis, Hodge suddenly recalled the broken mirrors in the entire castle, and realized that the countess was most afraid of seeing her face aging.
So he cleverly turned the reflection of the laptop to the countess-to-be;
"Alien" computer hardcore advertising ~
Then take the opportunity to set off a raging fire, and finally let everything calm down again...
At this point in the story, the protagonists' "survival game" is considered to be a success.
However, the game DISC is quietly on the whole line.
The evil lord couldn't help but float through the classic line in "Chainsaw Horror" -
“ I want to play a game
Life or death ,it's up to you”……
