Did you see the film of the arcade game fanatic who thinks he's finally won when the machine collapses in a heap in front of him, only to find he's now on "level 13" where alien battle cruisers are now floating around the room shooting *real* lasers at him, blasting out chunks of nearby walls? (A blaster appears in his hand and he starts desperately firing back. The audience loved it.) I recently started seeing TV ads for a new movie called "Nightmares" which include about a 0.25 second clip that resembles part of the Siggraph excerpt. Does anyone know if this is it? - Michel
