Plot
The Deathgames is a popular, controversial, and illegal web-show featuring a modern
day gladiator arena where combatants fight to the death for the entertainment of online
viewers, including a group of college students, and a group of Japanese office workers.
Government authorities have been searching to shut down the operation, but to no avail.
David Lord (Lutz), a fireman and paramedic gets into a terrible car accident with his
pregnant wife, Lori (Nina Dobrev), who does not survive the crash. Grief-stricken, David
considers suicide, but decides against it. Later he drowns his sorrows at a local bar,
while a mysterious woman, Milla, watches him from afar. After witnessing him easily
subdue the bar's bouncer, Milla seduces David before incapacitating him and allowing
him to be kidnapped.
Milla, it turns out, is a recruiter for The Deathgames, which is run by the confident
Logan (Jackson) and his two sexy assistants Kaneko (Irene Choi) and Kawaii (Lauren
Shiohama). Kaden (Messner), the executioner is doubtful of the fighting ability of a
mere "doctor." David is locked in a small cell and befriends a fellow fighter in the
cell next to his, Taiga (Kim), who tells him that he was coerced into participating
due to a threat on his wife's life. David reluctantly wins his first fight, and Milla
becomes more invested in his success (as she gets paid when he wins). Logan tells David
that he will set him free if he wins ten fights in a row.
In order to persuade David to fight again, Kaden reveals that Taiga's wife is in their
hands and will be killed if he fails to win his next fight. After David wins, it is
revealed that his opponent was Taiga, who was given the same task for his wife.
Remorsefully, David kills Taiga, but not before incurring serious wounds of his own.
It is then, that David officially accepts Logan's offer, on one the condition: the
tenth and final opponent must be Kaden himself.
Milla begins to feel bad for David after seeing how badly he is hurt and personally
attends to his wounds. She becomes closer to him as he fights his next few fights
and has him moved to a more comfortable room with more space and a bed. She brings
him food and women. After each fight she personally addresses his wounds. Eventually
she realizes her attraction to him and Milla and David make love.
For the penultimate fight, Kaden arranges for the release of an international serial
killer named Brutus Jackson, which leads Logan to believe that Kaden is afraid of David.
Before the fight, David tells Milla to contact his brother Sam, who he hasn't seen since
the car accident. She does so, but Sam doesn't seem to want to hear from David. David
defeats Brutus in brutal fight, and Logan is distressed. Logan has a doctor create a
serum to inject into David, which will slow him down and make him an easy victim for
Kaden in their fight.
