From http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0441796/plotsummary:
After the brutal death of a friend, a group of friends find themselves in possession of a video-game called 'Stay-Alive', a blood-curdling true story of a 17th century noblewoman known as 'The Blood Countess'. However, after playing the game when they know they shouldn't, the friends realize that once they die in the game - they die for real. As their numbers begin dropping and as they begin dying in the ways they died in the game, the remaining friends realize they must defeat the Blood Countess or accept their fates.. |

Is there some anime called Avalon that neither I nor the previous poster know about? I have to say, it does sound somewhat similar to what little I know of GANTZ...for whatever reason, I'm going to trust that an "Old Regular" knows what he's doing and isn't posting pointless O/T threads.

I checked in the encyclopedia and I couldn't find anything called Avalon. Are you mistaking another anime with something called Avalon? We need some more clarification quick.

Avalon's not an anime, it's live action with some cg if i'm correct.

Directed by Mamoru Oshii, hence the anime connection |

Avalon Summary:Avalon is a virtual reality game where players immerse themselves in simulated combat. Part of a team or by yourself, the more you play, the more money and points you can earn. When you earn enough, you can move up to Special A, the toughest level of the game. However, if you are not careful, your mind can become trapped in the game, unable to "reset".
In Avalon, Ash is one of the best players around. She is constantly head hunted for either her skills, or because taking her out will help a player move up a level. Once she belonged to a team called "Wizard", the best of the best. Yet after one fateful mission, the team disbanded. On her way to play Avalon, Ash encounters former team mate Stunner. He tells her that there is a ghost, a bug in the system, that might be a portal to Special A. He also tells her that former Wizard leader Murphy has "lost his mind", and is now a vegetable. As she investigates this supposed ghost, Ash encounters a group that is trying to make it to the next level. They need her and her skills to draw out and kill the ghost. Ash soon discovers that there is more going on than what she sees. If she is not careful, then she may find herself trapped in the virtual world, unable to reset. This movie doesn't at all sound like Stay Alive. Avalon looks like it's alot more related to .hack than Stay Alive. |

I had an idea for a "If you die in the video game, you die in real life" story back when I was in high school, a decade and a half ago.
It's too generic and obvious a premise for me to suspect anything. |
