SyFy is showing the D&D Movie - The Book Of Vile Darkness on Sat, Nov 24, 9pm eastern.

Is it worth watching?

Looks to be on par with production values for Wrath of the Dragon God, which is low, but the content looks at least authentic to D&D. More non-humans this time. (A goliath and a shadar-kai? This is 4e, obviously, but hey, don't knock it before you see it.) I'm curious, at least.

I'll see it

Edit: got it taped

The reviews I saw were pretty good from D&D players (and abominable from non-D&D players). In general, it was reviewed more favorably than the first two movies.

... I thought that Satur(n)day nights
at 9 p.m. The Book Of Vile Darkness , was
a general description for what goes on in
downtown bars, all across the modern world.

heh , my kitty avatar does have fits and
is seemingly Poetic sometimes ... but it
isn't usually intentional, it's medical.

and thanks(-giving) for the bump / reminder !

So I've been looking for a way to watch this at home... and have struck out. Is this not available via redbox/netflix/amazon/torrentz?

FlaminCows · « **Reply #8 on:** November 23, 2012, 09:21:29 PM »

It is available through torrents, at least. A quick IsoHunt search found me several links.

The few I checked were dead, though.

I never saw 'Wrath', but it doesn't look like they're tied together according to Wikipedia

Says it's disabled in the US... Thanks anyway, though.

Oh posh. My homeland can take its censorship and shove it up its arse.

Nothing else happened here, at all.

Evidence? What evidence? No evidence here.

zook1shoe · « **Reply #16 on:** November 24, 2012, 12:57:12 AM »

Yeah

BoVD >>> improperly cooked Thx dinner (again)

Opening narration + illustrations, drew me in.

Thing about the music

... I didn't know they
had synthesizers in BoVD ; but they are vile.

The archaic stringed instrument the town/bar idiot
was playing in the "recruit" scene, was almost the
exact same as the one, at the town the Dragon
stole the people from.
Can you say: Bard max Disguise + Teleport, yes ?!
... or maybe a fallen Archon !!

Fire Fighters (with a hint of Pyromaniac) love Shadar-Kai wimmins.
Me-ow.

It was a decent movie if you're a D&D fanatic (which... if you're on this website, you are...

).

awaken_D_M_golem · « **Reply #19 on:** November 26, 2012, 07:13:18 PM »

Yeah, I like all the various references to
specific D&D material ... but it's easy to
assume non-d&d-ers had no idea at all
what the "fluff" was going on.
