Storyline
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 distrust: 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 parody of fantasy films and the adventure gaming community, The Gamers: Dorkness Rising is a hilarious romp through the world of sword and sorcery -- in this case, a world of exploding peasants, giant house cats, and undead roast turkeys. Game on! Written by Matt Vancil

Trivia
Before they begin the campaign, Gary passes a little monster toy in front of the irate Cass, and makes the sound "GRRR. ARRGH." This is likely a nod to Mutant Enemy Productions - makers of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel. After each episode, the company's "logo" was a puppet drawn monster passing the screen and saying "GRRR. ARRGH." See more »Goofs
When Sir Osric is being electrocuted at the end, when the camera pans back to Daphne you can see Flynn holding his mandolin. When it pans back to Flynn after Osric dies he is not holding it anymore. He picks it up to start playing. See more »Crazy Credits

Looking for some great streaming picks? Check out some of the IMDb editors' favorites movies and shows to round out your Watchlist.
There are few films that have had me waiting and waiting for release more than this one. This is the latest film from The Dead Gentlemen group responsible for the original Gamers film and the Demon Hunters films. This group has not been terribly active over the last few years but this film is a definite reason to try and keep things up in following their progress.
This film follows a group of gamers who are trying to finish a campaign run by a GM frustrated by his group's disregard for his story. With the help of some new blood they attempt the campaign again with hopes of finishing this time.
This movie is a breath of fresh air in the movie community and a great improvement over the original. The movie shows respect for the game much like the original movie did but on top of that this movie shows a dramatic improvement on special effects launching it above the simplicity of college films. The acting is fairly decent and the jokes are quite funny.
Unfortunately many of the jokes are in jokes so if you are not a gamer you may not find the film as funny as others. So this is why I give the movie an 8 instead of the 9 that I initially thought of. Any case if you are a gamer or know about gaming check this one out you will enjoy it.
