Storyline
| Plot Summary |
In a valiant but pointless attempt to cheer up their freshly dumped friend and former Dungeons and Dragons legend Joe, two enthusiastic Live Action Role Players--Eric, a 27-level Grand Sorcerer in the making, and Hung, a medieval Master Rogue--drag their sad companion to a large-scale LARP campaign in the middle of a forest. Soon, though, things will spiral out of control when a cryptic dark incantation from the pages of an innocent prop book of spells accidentally summons a demonic succubus bent on wreaking havoc. Now, let them try to stop a murderous extra-dimensional being with several foam sticks and a handful of plastic swords. Written by Nick Riganas |

Did You Know?
| Trivia | The main cast went through Live Action Role Playing sessions before filming and Peter Dinklage was declared the most successful out of everyone. See more » |
| Goofs | Only Ronnie could understand the language in the book, yet somehow Eric was still able to read the runic Enochian alphabet phonetically. Eric should have never been able to read from the book hence the creature should have never been summoned, as he wouldn't know how to pronounce the strange symbols on the page. See more » |

| Quotes |
Eric:
And Guinevere the fearless, who's plus-three ass of perfection should keep the memory of she who should not be mentioned at bay. Gwen: Plus-three? Clearly you underestimate my endowments. See more » |
