La Decima Vittima

Earlier on in the year we watch a film called La Decima Vittima. Its one of the strangest films I've watched and I thought the acting was shit. It had a very unusual storyline. Basically it is set in the near future, and individuals are allowed to kill people in what is called 'The Big Hunt' to satisfy their violent tendencies to avoid countries going to war. In this strange inhabitance people find it the best form of entertainment and its shown across the world. People partake to become rich and famous. Each competitor has 10 rounds. 5 as the hunter and 5 as a victim. The competitor must survive all 10 rounds to become extremely wealthy and retire.
The story reminds me of the Hunger Games which is a better film. Its actually based on a short story written by Robert Sheckley called 'Seventh Victim'. The idea that people would play a game to kill is very messed up and you'd have to be pretty damn sure you were gonna win to sign up. But it does make you think about role playing games we play now, or any type of game for that matter, what if we did lose a round. You wouldn't be able to re spawn, you couldn't try again. Thats it, unlucky. But if you imagine what games make you feel now, with all different emotions and reactions rushing through you, playing the game in real life must be immense.
