Stay Alive

After the brutal death of a friend, a group of friends find themselves in possession of a video-game called "Stay Alive," a blood-curdling true story of a 17th century noblewoman known as the Blood Countess. After playing the game when they know they shouldn't, however, the friends realize that once they die in the game--they die for real. As their numbers begin dropping and as they begin dying in the ways they died in the game, the remaining friends realize they must defeat the Blood Countess or accept their fates.



Frankie Muniz and Sophia Bush are the well-knowns in this horror film that make it more enjoyable!

Red Dust

Its a movie about amnesty tirals in South Africa. Basically, for those who committed horrific crimes such as torture and murder, they are tried at an amnesty trial. If they provide full disclosure of their actions and the committee believes their claims to be true with nothing hidden, they cannot be prosecuted for their actions.

Police officer Dirk Hendricks (Bartlett) files an amnesty application for Alex Mpondo (Ejiofor), a member of the South African Parliament who can't remember the torture he once endured as a captive political activist. South African-born attorney Sarah Barcant (Swank), meanwhile, returns to her homeland to represent Mpondo, as well as Steve Sizela, Mpondo's friend who arrested along with him and never heard from again.

Hillary Swank does an amazing job, as does everyone else in the film. It is severly depressing and quite slow, but I found it quite inlightening because I had no idea that such trials had existed.
