Knights of Badassdom

The Knights of Badassdom is a much-delayed geek life comedy about LARPers (Live Action Roleplayers) who accidentally summon a real demon during one of their weekend gaming sessions and then have to fight the forces of darkness for real. It is only really notable for it’s cast which includes Peter Dinklage (Tyrian Lannister on Game of Thrones), Ryan Kwanten (Jason Stackhouse on True Blood), Summer Glau (River Tam on Firefly and Cameron from Terminator tv show), Danny Pudi (Abed on Community), and Steve Zahn (being Steve Zahn funny). Unfortunately, this case of geek cool actors can’t do much with a lightweight, only occasionally amusing script. It’s just a failed attempt at comedy and that’s kind of sad since all the actors are game and I wanted to see this little movie work.
