![]() I personally felt these were the most effective segments in the film, including a perfect use of the song, "The Bad Touch". Gamers control people in the game and make them do whatever disgusting act they want, such as burning themselves, sex fantasies and the like. Aside from "Slayers", Castle also created an earlier game called "Society", which is sort of like "Sim City", only with real people. The commentary on things such as people living reality through game-play and the depths to which society will sink for entertainment are on the mark. ![]() Mixing elements of The Running Man with bizarre game-playing scenarios, outlandish events and a sizable chunk of social commentary, Gamer is an interesting if not always successful little action picture. However, the game's billionaire creator, Ken Castle, has no intention of letting that happen. ![]() He's won more games than any other "Slayer" has even come close to, and he's close to getting out. If they win a certain amount of games, the inmate receives a full pardon. In a not too distant future, the world is obsessed with "Slayers", a game that allows it's players to control real death row inmates in a real world gaming environment.
