Series 7: The Contenders
 

Are you a sick morbid fuck like me? GO OUT AND RENT THIS MOVIE!

I have been looking for this movie online for a couple years, to no avail, when this Saturday I was hanging out with my best friend in Blockbuster. He was looking in the Sundance section while I was looking the other way at new releases, and be brought up the movie SLC Punk... I said, "When I think of that movie, I'm also reminded of Series 7, because they are two movies recommended by Geekling. I've never been able to find it, but I HAVE to see it." The next moment he goes, "Woah.. here it is!" Yeah, it was right behind me. Anyways, onto the movie.

It's a reality show. 6 random contenders are given weapons. The rules are simple. Be the last one alive.

I think that's really all I need to say. Go out and rent this brilliant film! My friend and I were dying of laughter, cheering on the contenders and really fucking enjoying this work of art. Seeeeee iiiiit!

That sounds great, when was it released?
Have you ever seen the Japanese movie Battle Royale? Its the same concept but with high schoolers. :)

Oh man! That film is absolutely hilarious! The tone is just absolutely perfect! They got that whole trashy reality t.v. thing down to a T.
Good taste man! Had me in stitches also! :D

Go rent this movie!

battle royale 2 is being made! except this time the students are paired up, so if one dies so does the other. can't wait.
halx, i've never found anywhere that sold/rented series 7, it's a really difficult film to find considering that it did quite on release.

This was a damn good movie i must agree... awesome ending

For those of you with Starz, HBO or Showtime, it has been showing on these channels for the past four months or so.

I spose to watch this like 2-3 years ago, but never had the chance, I'm not sure if teh place still has it though, I'll eventually watch it

BR2 is finished and has been released in JP. But every report I have read (there are a couple on Aint it cool news) says it sucks :(

I loved the first one.

Series 7 is a bit different in that it's more of a dark comedy than BR, but it's a great movie. I saw it in the theater. Laughed my ass off.

i've seen both, and i have to say Battle Royale is better, i preferred the tone in BR, i couldn't get into S7:TC

im a proud owner of Series Seven i found it at Borders two years ago so its probable they dont have it anymore. it deffinately a great movie. i cant wait to show it to my roommates at college.

I thought Series 7 kinda sucked, but that's just me.

A very well-made film about the idiocy of reality television. I think the director is a genius. However, a Stanley Kubrick film about Jerry Springer is still a movie about Jerry Springer.

I finally saw this yesterday on TMN and it was cute. The ending kinda sucked, though, IMHO. Looked like they were going for a "reality TV isn't real" ending then they cop out by bringing the guy back...

The ending had me and my friend rolling on the ground... hilarious. Different strokes.

I saw that movie about a year ago...it was alright, and worth the watch, but I didn't think it was that great or anything.

WHAT!?! This movie wasn't a documentary? I've been lied to. I thought it really happened. I was all ready to go sign up and get my gun.
Seriously, I thought it was a well-done, tongue-in-cheek movie about reality tv, that seems to actually pre-date most of the seemingly endless parade of reality crap that the networks throw at us.

I waited ages to watch this when i did see it was poor imo.
Battle Royale is ten times the movie series was.
