| SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
GAMER is a high-concept action thriller set in a near future
when gaming and entertainment have evolved into a terrifying
new hybrid. Humans control other humans in mass-scale, multi-player
online games: people play people...for keeps. Mind-control
technology is widespread, and at the heart of the controversial
games is its creator, reclusive billionaire Ken Castle (Michael
C. Hall). His latest brainchild, the first-person shooter
game "Slayers," allows millions to act out their
most savage fantasies online in front of a global audience,
using real prisoners as avatars with whom they fight to the
death.
Kable (300's Gerard Butler) is the superstar and cult hero
of the ultraviolent "Slayers." Kable is controlled
by Simon, a young gamer with rock star status who continues
to defy all odds by guiding Kable to victory each week. Taken
from his family, imprisoned and forced to fight against his
will, the modern day gladiator must survive long enough to
escape the game to free his family, regain his identity and
to save mankind from Castle's ruthless technology.
GAMER stars Gerard Butler (300, THE UGLY TRUTH), Michael
C. Hall (“Dexter”), Amber Valletta (TRANSPORTER
2), John Leguizamo (RIGHTEOUS KILL, ASSAULT ON PRECINCT 13)
and Kyra Sedgwick (“The Closer”).
