About The Gamers: Dorkness Rising
All Lodge wants is for his gaming group to finish their adventure. Unfortunately, they're more interested in seducing barmaids, mooning their enemies, and setting random villagers on fire. Desperate to rein in his players, Lodge injects two newbies into the party: a non-player character controlled by Lodge, who the power gamers immediately distrust, and the rarest gamer of all... a girl. Can the group overcome their bickering to save the kingdom, or will the evil necromancer Mort Kemnon triumph unopposed? A fun parody of fantasy films and the adventure gaming community.
Directed by Matt Vancil, The Gamers: Dorkness Rising leans on a strong ensemble — Nathan Rice, Carol Roscoe, Brian S. Lewis — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about adventure titles of 2008.
