LAN Party Massacre follows the exploits of a group of pro gamers invited to a national LAN tournament. One of the attendees has spent a bit too much time playing video games and decides to hunt down fellow attendees.
The movie aims to parody both the "slasher" sub-genre of horror movies as well as gaming culture, with the antagonist, a man obsessed with violence due to excessive gaming, seemingly viewed as a representation of how the government and most non-gamers view our admittedly violent hobby.
LAN Party Massacre will be available in 2009. You can view or download a teaser trailer on the movie's official website.

Nice post, David. I know it's supposed to be satire and poke fun of the whole gaming scene, but I think the movie might end up being used as "ammunition" for those Jack Thompsons out there that are anti-gaming.
By the way, have you ever tried 6 Hour Power? It's an energy drink (kind of like F5 in the teaser) that provides long-lasting extreme energy without the dreaded crash other drinks offer. They come in 2 oz shots but pack quite a punch! They're sugar free, have zero calories, and come in 5 different flavors. Check them out at http://www.6hrpower.com/
I hope you don't mind me talking a little bit about 6HP on GameDaily. I figured you'd be interested since they're great pick me ups for gaming sessions. Feel free to contact me back if you have any questions or would like more info. Cheers.
