  • Dungeons & Dragons: The Book of Vile Darkness
    Apr 15 2025

    50 Shades of Grayson Azriel

    The third Dungeons & Dragons movie is steeped in sin as it partners a quartet of bloodthirsty bandits with a celibate knight on a quest to rescue his father from a kinky underworld. Is returning director Gerry Lively faithful to the letter of the 3rd edition game supplement The Book of Vile Darkness, which first let players fall under the spell of a black magic text printed in blood, skin, and bone? And why did SyFy Channel pass on this 2012 campaign, limiting its official release to the UK? Justin, Stuart, and Arnie are ready to suck fingers to find out how bad it gets.

And is any of the Overland’s wild architecture as creative as the fringed leather wardrobe that Jason Mamoa sports in the real world? Listen Now to find out if director Jared Hess (Napoleon Dynamite) can fill the plot holes and deliver a winning Now Playing Arcade entry.
