Tell us.

Stuart, you ever drink

your own blood, Stuart?

No.

You ever mess around with black magic?

No.

Well, you're about to.

You gotta do your civic duty.

You're about to, Stuart.

This will be about

you helping us help you.

No.

Come on, man, it's okay.

[Agent] We've got something

we need you to do, Stuart.

We need you to help us out.

Come on, Stu.

[Agent] You gotta do your civic duty

and help out Uncle Sam, Stuart okay.

But I gotta drink blood.

What kind of sh*t is this?

- Listen.

We have a problem with the

federal government computers.

I don't know if you've

been reading the news

and it kind of all leads

back to you, Stuart,

and whatever you were doing

in that stupid house you were living in.

But you're gonna help

us get outta this mess.

Help us out, Stuart.

I thought I was done.

- No.

- Just that house.

Help us out.

Help us help you.

[Agent] Just relax.

- Relax.

- Oh.

Finally.

[Agent] Take it easy.

Oh.

Relax.

Relax your arm.

Relax.

Relax.

What'd you, no, chill out.

Relax.

(Stuart groaning)

Yep, we're gonna do this.

Nope, we need a blood sample.

We need a, come on, we

need a blood sample.

Get it over here, we need a blood sample.

(Stuart moaning)

Oh, no.

Oh.

Come on, take a drink.

You gotta drink it.

Just trust us.

- Drink it.

Take a drink.

- Drink it.

- Just drink it.

(Stuart coughing)

It's part of the process.

You have to do it, okay.

It's for your own good.

- Just drink it.

[Agent] Just trust us.

Good boy.

Very good.

So, we've got something

we need you to do.

We need you to enter a simulation

and look around and tell us what you see.

You tech boys know about that, right.

You see there's a demon

that's infected our federal

government computers.

And this demon has created

its own simulation world.

Kind of like a video game.

Think of it as like a video game.

But we're gonna send you in

and you're gonna take a look around

and you're gonna tell us what you see.

Sound good?

I can do that.

[Agent] Is that on.

Is that on, you okay?

Yeah.

(keyboard keys clacking)

What do you see?

Tell us what you see.

(dramatic music)

Oh, I'm coming up on a lake.

(dramatic music)

I am gonna try and cross the water.

(dramatic music)

I'm looking everywhere.

I'm almost to the other side

of the lake.

- Now, look around.

Look around.

(dramatic music)

(thunder rumbling)

Whoa.

What do you see?

Tell us what you see.

(dramatic music)

I am all alone.

It doesn't look like anybody else is here.

(dramatic music)

What do you see now?

She's running.

(dramatic music)

(leaves rustling)

I hear some rustling, I

(dramatic music)

Hi.

Oh my God.

(dramatic music)

Do you like my cornfield?

This is my favorite place.

(dramatic music)

Come with me.

Come on, we're friends now.

Let's go, I gotta show you something.

(The Demon Queen speaking indistinctly)

I need to show you.

It's beautiful.

(dramatic music)

It's home.

You like my home?

It's been so long since I had any friends.

Isn't it beautiful?

We don't know who she is yet.

Get outta there.

All right, all right.

(dramatic music)

Come on.

I gotta get out of here.

Yeah.

We're almost there.

Oh, oh, what is?

Oh my God.

Holy, that's oh.

What is it?

Oh my God, that's crazy.

Tell us.

Oh.

Don't ask any questions okay?

What do you see in the corn field?

What else is there?

Keep telling us what you're seeing.

Look, I'm sent in here

by a government agency

we've never heard of,

to help you out okay.

Now, these two spooks you're working for,

they're gonna k*ll you

when you're done doing

what they want you to do.

So you're gonna have to k*ll these guys.

Make a break for it somehow, okay.

But I'm gonna help you,

and we're gonna help you.

And oh, just call me, Tim.

I'm not actually a walking skeleton.

I'm actually a short

Jewish guy from queens.

But this is my, you know, avatar.

sh*t that b*tch might be watching,

you know, the one you're looking for,

the demon from your house.

Yeah, she's everywhere at once.

So let's just keep walking

for right now, okay.

Or she'll,

we'll end up in a bullseye,

which we don't want to be in.

We don't want to end

up in her cross hairs,

you know what I mean?

So let's keep walking.

(footsteps crunching)

Just keep walking, buddy.

(footsteps crunching)

(dramatic music)

(footsteps crunching)

I hate this f*cking cornfield.

God, this b*tch needs to

work on her personal skills.

Look at that thing over there.

You wanna eat that?

Does that look good?

Let's get the f*ck outta here, come on.

(footsteps crunching)

(dramatic music)

What do you see?

Take a look.

Oh, I'm looking everywhere.

(dramatic music)

What do you see now?

What do you see?

I hear some rustling.

(dramatic music)

There's somebody there.

(dramatic music)

(footsteps crunching)

(dramatic music)

Keep looking at it.

Oh, oh, oh my God.

Get in there.

(dramatic music)

I'm trying to look through

the windows but they're all.

What do you see with the cabin?

They're all covered, all the windows.

I don't see, I don't see any smoke.

- Something?

- Coming outta there.

anywhere, okay, all right.

You're not going anywhere.

Look, look, I know it's,

look, I know it's f*cked up, okay, look,

there's a demon and you

have got to find it, okay,

it's in this simulation,

and you've got to find it.

You can do it.

You can do it.

- Okay,

'cause it's disrupting all

of our computer systems.

And you gotta do this for us, okay.

You gotta,

you gotta do it.

- All right.

Look, it'll be okay, all right.

It'll be okay.

But you gotta go back in, okay.

You can do it.

You can do it.

There you go.

You'll be all right.

(Stuart groaning)

(dramatic music)

Hi, baby.

I'm making a favorite dinner.

(dramatic music)

I love you, baby.

I love you, baby.

(thunder rumbling)

(dramatic music)

You can't get away.

(demon screaming)

Oh no.

(dramatic music)

What going on?

(dramatic music)

Hey.

Hey, it's me again, relax.

So look, we're gonna get you

outta this mess, all right.

But you have to do everything I say.

What the f*ck was that?

(dramatic music)

Okay, so this entity you're looking for,

we call it The Demon Queen.

She's the worst dude.

She's been making a big mess in the world

for about a hundred years.

Yeah.

Here check it out, okay.

So you gotta, you gotta listen to me man.

What you gotta do is

remove her crown, okay.

That crown on her head

that'll upset her just enough

to send things crashing

a little bit, okay.

And our tech guys can get in

and lock it all down, okay.

That's really all you have to do.

After you do that,

I can't guarantee you what's gonna happen,

but hey, it's for Uncle

Sam, right, Uncle Sam.

Okay, well, I don't know if

you're gonna see me again.

If you do, well I'll buy

your first drink, okay.

But best of luck, partner,

and I'll see you sometime.

(dramatic music)

Don't look at me, man.

(dramatic music)

Okay, all right,

let's go this way.

(footsteps crunching)

(thunder rumbling)

(dramatic music)

(Stuart gasping)

(dramatic music)

[Reporter] Two suspects

were apprehended in Michigan today.

This is my cabin in the woods,

home away from home.

(dramatic music)

Do you see something?

Is this really you, or is that you?

Wait, is that you over there?

Who could this be?

(dramatic music)

Or maybe it's all an illusion.

(dramatic music)

My secret,

play a game with me first.

(dramatic music)

Do you wanna play?

(dramatic music)

Let's play.

Or is that saw looking really promising?

(thunder rumbling)

You can no longer go there.

Where can I place you next?

(The Demon Queen gasping)

No, sorry.

There's nothing left for you.

We're gonna be together forever.

(footsteps tapping)

It looks like I'm about to win.

Is it too early

to say that I get to play

[Reporter] Looking ahead,

VR is poised to revolutionize

various sectors beyond

gaming and entertainment.

Imagine a virtual

classroom where students,

from around the world,

can interact as if they

were in the same room.

Or virtual tourism that let's

you explore distant places

without leaving your home.

Advances in haptic

feedback and AI integration

will only enhance these experiences,

making them more realistic and engaging.

As technology's not.

[Newscaster] It offers

incredible immersive experiences,

some argue that it isolates

users from the world.

The potential for addiction

and the physical effects

of prolonged use are concerning.

On the flip side, VR has

revolutionary potential

for education and training,

providing hands-on experience

that were previously impossible.

Ultimately, it's a double edged sword.

[Reporter] The adverse experience

that offers unparalleled realism,

making you feel like you're actually

inside the game or environment.

The graphics are stunning

and the responsiveness is seamless.

Enhancing the overall experience.

However, the high cause

and occasional motion sickness issues

still pose significant barriers

for widespread adoption.

[Newscaster] Rollercoaster

into a virtual reality wonderland.

[Reporter] It shows a great promise.

[Newscaster] With Steven

Spielberg at the joystick,

this film power ups with dazzling visuals

and nostalgic Easter eggs

that will make your inner

gamer level up in delight.

Tye Sheridan plays Wade,

a character who's more

than just a bit mapped hero

on a quest for the ultimate

cheat code to unlock a fortune.

While the plot might sometimes

feel like it's stuck in.

(people speaking indistinctly)

[Reporter] Absolutely

an underrated masterpiece

is a thought provoking

exploration of virtual reality

and its implications, human

perception and identity.

I personally find masterful,

scifi psychological thrill

creates an unsettling atmosphere.

(people speaking indistinctly)

(vehicle engines revving)

(upbeat music)

It's like driving at it's core.

(people speaking indistinctly)

(upbeat music)

(people speaking indistinctly)

[Newscaster] The neon-soaked visuals,

an intense action of pure '80s role.

And Esteves nails the

frantic high stakes game.

Watching that evil g*ng

come to life and chasing.

(people speaking indistinctly)

This kid in Minnesota,

he made a horror flick

The Amityville something

Who knows, so take your pick

He shot it on his flip phone

It makes me motion sick

But that's the kind of

movie I really wanna see

Yeah, that's the kind of cinema for me

(upbeat music)

Hey, get in Minnesota

They say your movie sucks

But Hollywood can't do that

well for 80 million bucks

Don't listen to us criticize

We're all a bunch of schmucks

And don't you be discouraged

There's no reason why

The Indie Horror film will never die

So keep on making movies

I'll keep on writing songs

'Cause independent horror,

that's where my heart belongs

As long as there is someone

who's brave enough to try

The Indie Horror film will never die

(dramatic music)
