This is an absolute classic. It compresses video games, the internet, murder, student life and sex into one big thing. Its a sort of like Gamesmaster, online, inspector morse, this life and a porn film all in one. There is not a better buy on Amazon. It is a waste of money not buying it. Take it from me its an absolute classic.

Cleverly compiled thriller about a student who gets hooked on a computer reality game that lets you try, or more probably trains you, to murder girl victims; if you fail, you get the chance to retry until you succeed - then the computer game turns into real life with real girls being murdered in the way the student kills them on the PC!
Content caution, definitely an 18. Very clever ending - good to see Brighton as it was some 20 years ago, before the West Pier disappeared into the sea.

Well i actually liked it, it was pretty gripping as you'd expect from Ms La Plante and the characters were comlex without being hard to think about, the idea itself, though ludicrous, was appealing, I wanna play a net game this involved (well I take that back actually I don't want to stalk then kill someone) but the idea of someone watching individual users and selecting them for a major interactive game whilst all the time this mad plot is going on to kill innocent women and point the finger at someone else is all very interesting, shame its not available on DVD, why not eh?

Brilliant Series
So well acted by the cast. Paul Bettany was brilliant. Also the start of Zoe Luckers acting career as she stars in this. It's good the series is available to buy on dvd.

killer net is addictive !!!!
Great acting. The film is 3 hours long but it really will not feel like it. It is brilliant. You really feel for the characters. This is full of suspense and twist. Read more

Killer Net - I want those two hours back!!!
This film had real potential, the story line sounded interesting and Paul Bettany is a fine actor. I really did give this film a chance but it lacked so many things. Read more

Wow! It has an ex Take That member in it!
Yes, I remember this from when it first on tv, the biggest boast they had when promoting it was that it had Jason Orange in it (the lost man of pop himself!). Read more

Its complex and yet will make you want to watch it all
This has to be one of the best videos i have seen, it is so encompassing. It really is mind baffling while still being able to ensure that the story line remains both complex and... Read more
