The Crank creators, Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor showed the footage of their upcoming movie GAME at the Comic-Con last year and it was hardcore intense, This Italian trailer isn’t what I saw but it’s a teaser for now, I’m sure the domestic version will hit the web soon enough. Gerard Butler with firepower, that’s all you need to know.
In the not too distant future, Kabel (Butler), a death row inmate, has unwittingly become a pop culture hero. Every week, millions worldwide tune in online to watch him and hundreds of other convicts battle in Slayers, an ultra-violent multi-player online game invented by technological genius Ken Castle (Hall). To the wealthy young gamer who controls his every move, Kable is just a sim (simulation) character. To the resistance group that opposes Castle’s games as high-tech slavery, he is a critical element in their battle to take down the inventor. Caught in the crosshairs of two opposing forces and under the command of a teenager’s remote device, Kable must use his extraordinary fighting skills to escape the game, bring down Castle and overthrow the system.
GAME opens September 4th, 2009
