Role-playing with a vengeance

John is an avid role-player. He has feelings for fellow RPer Brooke. But when Brooke makes it clear the feelings are far from mutual, John, in despair, takes his own life. In the wake of this, his friends and fellow gamers are stalked by a mysterious black knight.

One of the all too rare SOV features directed by a woman, KNIGHT CHILLS is a solidly crafted supernatural slasher (not to mention a Christmas movie!), featuring one of the more convincing losers to ever grace the screen.

Its full of lovely details that DnD players will appreciate the hell out of, some of the most useless cops in cinema history (redundant, I know) and ingenious low budget effects, KNIGHT CHILLS is due for a reappraisal.

Screening from a new remaster from the original SVHS master tapes.
