This is a live-action movie by Chris Hedeen about an obsessed Counter-Strike player who loses his distinction between reality and CS, fighting terrorists on an exciting hostage rescue mission, ending with a clever twist.
Counter-Struck tells the story of a gamer so obsessed with Counter-Strike that his distinction of what is real and what is not slowly fades away. Cleverly playing upon several quirks from the game, this movie follows the Player through his adventures of fighting terrorists and rescuing hostages, and ends with a twist. Chris shot this movie in a local warehouse in Minneapolis MN, for his final project in film class at MCAD. It took about 6 weeks from planning to completion; actual work time (writing, shooting, editing) was about 60-80 hours. It definitely shows, as it turned out simply amazing. This movie is clever and hillarious - definitely a must see.
