After receiving the first movie poster for the upcoming horror Stay Alive today from our boy 'RonJon' I figured it was time for a bit of a preview on the film.
Featuring a video game that asks you to 'stay alive,' the game turns out to have powers similar to that of The Ring. After the console is shut off and the controllers are put away the game continues to play.
Stay Alive Movie Poster
After the mysterious brutal death of an old friend, a group of teenagers find themselves in possession of Stay Alive, a next generation horror survival videogame based on the spine-chilling true story of a 17th-century noblewoman known as "The Blood Countess." The gamers don't know anything about the game other than the fact that they're not supposed to have it--and they're dying to play it. Not able to resist temptation, the group begins to play the grisly game and soon a chilling connection is made--they are each being murdered one-by-one in the same method as the character they played in the game. As the line between the game world and the real world disappears, the group must find a way to defeat the vicious and merciless Blood Countess, all the while trying to Stay Alive.

The first trailer for Stay Alive actually looks pretty sick (in a good way) and should help attract the huge percentage of moviegoers who also happen to play video games.
