*Note: This year for our annual 31 Days
of Halloween marathon of horror movie reviews, rather than write
about old favorites, we're focusing on modern horror films that
haven't had a wide theatrical release. So for the entire month of
October, we will be dealing with horror fare that you can find in the
“New Release” section of Netflix or (if you still have one) your
local video store. So instead of nostalgic appreciations and
recommendations, this promises to be more of a “the good, the bad,
and the ugly” kind of affair. Hopefully more good than bad and
ugly, but that remains to be seen.
Review by Bob Ignizio
It wouldn't be hard to make fun of live
action role playing aficionados. These are the folks who take
tabletop fantasy games like Dungeons & Dragons one step further
by actually acting out the epic battles against orcs and wizards
while dressed in full fantasy regalia. Horror comedy KNIGHTS OF
BADASSDOM, however, realizes
that bigger and better laughs can be had by laughing with the larpers
rather than at them.
