The gamers, by dead Gentlemen

The gamers is a fantastic parody about pen and paper roleplayers. This movie portraits both the player and their geekiness and the chacters during their epic quests!

Written and recorded by gamers for gamers 

"The gamers" is probably one of the best indie movie ever done (at least in my opionion). There are a lot of people like them that played Role playing games and the clichè are almost the same everywhere!
The characters are perfect and the most common stereotypes are exploited with utmost care and attention.
If you were exposed to tabletop gaming you'll laugh your ass off every minute!
This is not the only production by that group of madmen know as "dead gentlemen", i invite you to explore their production!

Synopsis
One late night in a college dorm, four socially inept geeks immerse themselves in a fantasy world of their own creation. As their characters journey through forbidden kingdoms, ancient ruins, and the forsaken wilderness, the players attempt to solve a mysterious puzzle that could ultimately mean the difference between getting a life and death. Who is The Shadow? Where is The Princess hidden? Will any of them ever find a date? And how long do they have before their annoyed neighbors call the cops?

"The Gamers: Dorkness Rising" Trailer

"The Gamers: Dorkness Rising" is the feature-length follow-up to Dead Gentlemen Production's award-winning short film "The Gamers." Buy the DVD here and support more DG projects: http://paizo.com/store/byCompany/d/deadGentlemen/v5748btpy7tew 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!
