Trickster
A lonely teenage horror-movie fan named Michael Brower discovers a mysterious computer game called Brainscan that uses hypnosis to custom-tailor the game into the most terrifying experience imaginable.
When he emerges from the hypnotic trance, he is horrified to find evidence that the brutal murder depicted in the game actually happened, and he's the killer.
Add in the appearance of the mysterious Trickster, and the murderous madness jumps to the next level.
Hounded by his best friend Kyle Hilliard and Police Detective Hayden and hiding the truth from girl next door and crush Kimberly, Michael's world comes crashing down in a hectic cacophony that is sure to make one think, "Are you sure you wanna play?".
He moves from level to level, each time trying to keep from being caught, even killing Kyle.

It all comes to a climax when the Trickster tells Michael he must kill Kimberly.

Kimberly reveals that she loves Michael, which allows him to break free.
However, the Trickster opens Kimberly's door, allowing Hayden to come in and shoot Michael.
He awakens to discover the whole experience was just the game.
He joyfully discovers Kyle is still alive and that nothing in the game had happened.
He goes over to Kimberly's party (the same one as at the beginning) and asks her out, which she replies with "maybe" before giving him a kiss.
It concludes with Michael giving his Principal (who was closing down his Horror club unless Michael shows him what will be shown first) Brainscan.
