Escape from Man Cave
You find yourself locked in a basement That's what you get from sneaking around!
You hope the grumpy old man living in this big white house wil not catch you. There are a lot of movie posters on the walls. There also is a big projector screen. Quite the odd man cave the old man has here...
You see an old pc in the corner of the room. Maybe the computer can unlock the door?

Nice to use all those movie trailers. It was actually quite a bit of wikipedia-ing to find all the answers.
Very cool idea and I'm impressed you got the videos loading. I laughed when I lost the first time. Didn't see that ending coming!
COns:
Too much headbob on the camera. Also I would like to walk faster.

I tried again and... lost when the door opened... does this game have a time limit? Cos that seems pretty bad for a game that requires waiting for downloads/waiting through long trailers :S
Technically impressive of loading the video into the game, though. As others have said, having clues in the environment, on posters, maybe some news articles you could find, fake reviews and such would have improved this I think. Would make it possible for people who don't recognise a movie, and give you something to do while loading.
I was not able to finish, not even pass the second trailer, because when the 2nd trailer ended, the door opened. I tried to restart the game, but the same thing happened again :(
But then I noticed it was random trailer and I was impressed. I loved the idea.
I didn't like the game over scene, I think it disrupts the mood you accomplished.
Overall, a really complete entry. Good job!
On my first go I didn't notice the floating box over the computer and just looked at it directly while spamming keys and trying to figure out why the vids kept changing. Needless to say, I freaked out a little when the door opened!
On my second go, I got the hang of it and completed the game. I even managed to do it without resorting to the internet. :)
