Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: The star of Stay Alive is a cutting-edge video game, but the film still has hackneyed horror at its heart.
Rotten: Videogames are no longer brainless, so why are videogame movies so slow to evolve?
Rotten: An anemic attempt to update the horror genre's imperiled-teens-meet-bloodletting-uber-fiend substratum.
Rotten: This is a cool/potentially creepy idea only if you're in high school and goofing around with your friends at the movie theater. For everyone else, this isn't just a preposterous premise for a horror movie, it's a source of unintentional hilarity.

What a Horror Movie should be!
I have seen a lot of horror movies and this one tops all of them! The Grudge, Chainsaw and Village are amateur movies. They either have a horrible story, or is just full of guts and no story at all! But this film has both and it is tightly woven into a beautiful package. Each character in the film has a certain personality that can always tell you who is gonna die next which leaves a touch to the film that always puts me at the edge of my seat. I always look forward to being scared in a show, and this is always perfect if you want to crap your pants! I don't know about the other people's comments, but I give it 2 big thumbs up!
