* One of the mentored kids in ''[[Role Models]]'' is a LARPer. The movie's central plot, a pair of adults learning to be less cynical and enjoy life more, reaches a critical point when one of the men decides to blow off a court-date in order to join in the kid's LARP and {{spoiler|help him ''almost'' win the big annual free-for-all.}} He even admits to one of the game organisers that he'll probably be back some time.

* ''[[The Wild Hunt (film)|The Wild Hunt]]'' is about a fantasy LARP (a Canadian group, so more like the Russian style) where jealousy and personal issues between the players result in things going hideously wrong. Some folks view it as the ''[[Mazes and Monsters]]'' of LARP, but the LARP setting has little to do with the conflict, which is all about a relationship triangle.
