The concept of live action role playing people forced into doing real sword and sorcery was promising.

For its entertainment value, then I am rating 'Knights of Badassdom' 6 out of 10 stars.Дespite being saddled with a really low budget, this movie could still have worked.

As much as I detest LARPing, then I tried not to let that color my impression of the movie. 'Knights of Badassdom' is well worth watching if you are into roleplaying games, LARPing, or if you just had a geeky nerd hidden somewhere in your heart. The effects in the movie were quite alright as well, and the demonic version of the succubus was actually quite cool, looking like something of a mixture between (and here comes one of those things only RPG nerds will understand) Tanar'ri, Baatezu and a gremlin from the 'Gremlins' movies. And the actors and actresses really helped the movie along quite nicely. It should also be said that the movie had some nice talents to it, and people did great jobs with their given roles and characters (in every sense of the word). And despite the nerdy geekness, then the storyline was actually very entertaining. The storyline was geeky, yes, but it was nice and fun to watch. Despite the movie's budget, then director Joe Lynch actually managed to put together a fun and enjoyable movie. Those who play D&D will surely pick up on those throughout the movie. Not to mention the namedropping of various monsters and races from the Monster Manual. There are some really fun and inside references to everything nerdy in aspects of being a roleplaying game enthusiast such as the Manowar and King Diamond references. Things quickly turn bloody and foam-weapons need to be exchanged for steel. The story is about a bunch of geeks coming together in the forest for a weekend endeavor of LARP (Live Action Role-Playing) when an in-game sorcerer accidentally unleashes a succubus into the mortal world. As a player of Dungeons & Dragons, but with no possible interest or understanding in the LARP thing, then I still found the movie to be enjoyable. And, of course, if you are a super geeky LARP enthusiast, then you will definitely enjoy this movie. If you enjoyed 'Zero Charisma' then chances are that you will also like 'Knights of Badassdom'.
