MOVIE SYNOPSIS: 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, 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!
