Oooh! Awesome news!
Someone bought the rights to make a movie out of Jack Chicks anti-roleplaying comic. Yes, THE Jack Chick and THE comic about D&D where the kids have to kill themselves if their character dies.
From the site:
DARK DUNGEONS is the most wide spread comic about Role-Playing Games in history. This comic was first produced in 1984, a strange time as America was in the grips of BIG-GAMING like never before or since. DARK DUNGEONS has spread wide and far over the last thirty years and this graphic novel resonated with a generation as demonstrated by a how widely it is talked about to this very day. A simple web search of the words “Dark Dungeons Jack Chick” (no quotation marks) reveals over 47,000 hits!
Dark Dungeons the comic tells the tale of Debbie and Marcie, two young girls who are entangled in the grips of the evil Ms. Frost’s web. The entire comic can be read and purchased here.
But despite the lasting popularity of Dark Dungeons the comic, RPGs have continued to grow and grow. RPGs spread like a cancer over the last 30 years and Dark Dungeons the movie shall be like something that cures cancer.
I am betting that this will be parody.
...Or the entire site could be a hoax and they might not in fact be making the comedy movie that should win all the oscars forerver.
