Battle Royale
and the Long Walk.

Running Man almost qualifies but that's one guy, rather than 20-40 or so terrified children.

I am good thanks, yourself?
The Long Walk was pretty good, but the ending was a bit meh.

It apparently ties in to the Dark Tower series
The shadowy figure can be interpreted to be the villain in those books. But I've not read them so yeah.
