Summary, etc.:

he mysterious First Director gives Capra Video High School freshman Hamish Wadja a special DVD, called a Vidz, that transports him into a fantasy world, where he must defeat an evil wizard to prevent evil from taking over his own world. Hamish's life should be perfect now that he's at Capra Video High School, studying his great passion in life: movies. But he finds himself with few friends, and not much to do besides watch movies at home. Then he finds a mysterious note in his locker. "You have been chosen to fight evil!" it says. Huh? That's the kind of thing that happens in the movies, right? It doesn't happen to Hamish . . . or does it? Soon Hamish has entered the world of the Vidz, where there's no script to follow, no director to tell you what to do, and no spooky music to tell you when something scary is about to happen. It's up to Hamish to decide how this movie is going to end, and he'd better fight those bad guys, because if they win, Hamish's whole life at Capra Video High will change. From the Hardcover edition.
