La Decima Vittima also known as The 10th Victim filmed in the 1960's based on Robert Sheckley's 1953 short story 'Seventh Victim'. The film is based on a fictional reality with people killing each other but the killing is a game and anyone anywhere could be playing the game. The films setting is laid out like a competition, more kills you got the better you are means more kills more rewards. So if theres a competition theres a winner, when a person is crowned the winner of the games they are known to all across the world like a celebrity.
Films that came to mind with similarities:
- The Hunger Games - The film chooses multiple people to fight in a arena to the death and only one can be crowned the winner.
- Highlander - Multiple people that are immortal unless their head is removed from their body, fight to the death gaining power from each death but only one can be left alive; quoting the film "There can only be one".
The film did inspire people around its time, while some people took the film as violence others took to it to make it as a game; giving you the game 'Assassin'. Assassin is a game where players interact in the real world to eliminate their the other players.
