If you’re lining up videos to watch during the upcoming holiday downtime and you’ve ever played Dungeons and Dragons or similar fantasy role-playing games, you might want to get your paws on Zero Charisma. If you’ve ever had to contend with a misanthropic overbearing gamemaster who’s never quite grown up out of that oh-so-painful adolescent fanboy phase and has no life beyond the GM screen, you’ll find Scott, the protagonist, oh-so-familiar.

Zero Charisma won an audience award at SXSW 2013, JoBlo.com calls it “like TAXI DRIVER for fanboys”, and Anitra both let out sighs of rueful recognition and guffaws when we watched it last night (she also noted some similarities between me and one of the characters).
