I saw "Stay Alive" with a couple friends last Tuesday - and it stunk to high heaven. HORRIBLE acting (by a bunch of no-name actors) and HORRIBLE dialogue. The scary bits weren't really that scary - even for an overly squeamish horror movie wimp like myself.

Here's one example of the horrid dialogue. It's paraphrased, but you get the picture:

Phineas: I'm sorry your friend died.

[Eyes the strange videogame CDROM]

Phineas: Ooooh...new game! Let's play...

The character in question was a *little* too apathetic about another's death. In fact, ALL of the characters were overly robotic. Just like their videogame alteregos.

Did I mention that one of the main characters was named "October"? If the scriptwriter had to name a character after a month, why not something a bit more normal - like April, May or June?

At least I didn't have to pay for my movie ticket (my friend paid for me). But if I wasn't with my friends, I would've walked out of the movie theater within five minutes.

Stay FAR away from "Stay Alive"!

Really? Huh...I've met a girl named September, but have never met someone named October. First time for everything, I guess.

One of them spelled it Octobre, and they were both 2 years younger than me... so 15 year olds. It's a new agey name I guess.

I used to know a guy named Winter. Yeah, his parents really were quite strange.

I knew an April, a May, and a June! I ran into someone named December, but didn't really know them though.
