This has potential. Potential for what, I'm not sure yet.

Found at a fairly reputable geeknews site:

Summer Glau is joining the cast of Joe Lynch’s The Knights Of Badassdom. Previous casting announcements have named Peter Dinklage, True Blood’s Ryan Kwanten, Community’s Danny Pudi and Steve Zahn as being amongst the cast. Glau makes for the first burst of estrogen for the movie, but the fifth flash of awesome.

The film’s story revolves around a group of LARPers (Live Action Role-Players) who somehow end up in a face off with Heavy Metal demons. More good news – the demons are going to be created by the geniuses at Spectral Motion, previously responsible for various Hellboy hellions and several Last Stand X-Men.

On the one hand, Summer Glau, the Station Agent guy, Jason Stackhouse's actor and Abed's actor? Together? I'd pay to watch them shop for shoes. Playing LARPers? It sounds almost impossible to get wrong.


On the OTHER hand, the only previous project Joe Lynch has directed is a hillbilly cannibal horror film called "Wrong Turn 2: Dead End". So it *could* go wrong. It could go *horribly* wrong.

That... actually sounds really cool.

As long as it's Summer Glau, I will likely want to see it.

It could go *horribly* wrong. and yet a number of us will be drawn in, regardless...

The thing that makes me happiest, here, is knowing that you'll watch it and tell us about it, so that I can keep my eyes averted until I get some good news.
