''[[Gamer]]'' is a 2009 movie starring Gerard Butler. He plays John "Kable" Tillman, a death row inmate, who is forced to battle other prisoners in an online game called ''Slayers'', and as his every move is controlled by a young gamer's remote device. If they survive 30 matches, they get a full pardon. To the players, Kable and the other inmates are just simulated characters. But, to a resistance group that opposes the game's now-billionaire inventor, Ken Castle (Michael C. Hall), Kable, who has just survived his record-setting 27th match, is a critical piece of their plan to end the sinister inventor's form of high-tech slavery.
