Play Dead

Dying for recognition !
I picked this one up simply because I love independent film...and I haven't seen Chris Klien in too many films that where not comedies. Play Dead is about a frustrated out of work actor who jumps in his car with a destination of nowhere to blow off some steam. He ends up in a town, literally in the middle of nowhere where he stumbles upon some of it's deadly secrets and is forced to use his wits to survive. One of the most interesting things about this film is that though it has comedic moments it is not a comedy, though there is action...it is not really an action movie, though there is palpable drama...it is not a straight drama. This film defies the standard attempts to categorize it and with great results. Play Dead was an exceedingly entertaining film from start to finish. Klien delivers, but the real outstanding performances go to one time heart throb Jake Busey, and former front man of the band "LimpBizket" Fred Durst. In fact Fred Durst put on such a great performance,...

Entertaining!
I must say that I was glad that I bought this DVD, this movie because I would have never guessed that Fred Durst played a part that didn't even resemble himself, I loved it and of course there was was Michael Beach which I had the pleasure of meeting at the Harley Davidson dealership in Van Nuys, California, cool guy and someone I know personally Dean Delray who sold me my Fatboy motorcycle, did a great job of acting in this movie. This movie was funny, entertaining and in more simple words goofy, but in a good way, I enjoyed it and dragged my boyfriend to watch it and he laughed and couldn't figure out what part Fred Durst played as he had the pleasure of meeting and riding with as well as Michael Beach and Dean. We loved the movie so much we ordered and anyone who watches it will find it funny in parts and goofy as well. A great laugh!

Pretty cheesy, but....
It has Fred Durst in it, so I had to get it. Love him!!!! And he did a good job playing his character.
