Stay Alive (2006) 8/10

Starring : Jon Foster, Samaire Armstrong, Frankie Muniz, Jimmi Simpson
Director : William Brent Bell
Running Time : 85 mins

When one of their friends dies, a group of teens discover amongst his belongings a computer game called Stay Alive. As they play it to commemorate their friends passing, they realise that his death may well have come as a result of playing the game, and they all start dying off in the same manner that they died in the game.

This is a great idea for a horror movie. The CGI monsters in this aren't supposed to look that convincing, which actually makes them more frightening. There are lots of familiar faces, some of which I'm sure people have wanted to see die for years, and there's even a background plot line on why the game is killing the teens, rather than just having it kill them randomly. Well worth checking out, even if you normally avoid teen horrors.
