Editing Dungeons and Dragons in Film (section)

=== Dungeons and Dragons 3: The [[Book of Vile Darkness]] (2012) ===
Another straight-to-TV film from Germany that has absolutely no ties to the previous ones despite being called D&D 3. Considerably a lot more [[grimdark]], in a bit of a swerve. It's all focused on the titular book, which in this film was actually made when an insane necromancer wanted to become immortal and got his flesh flayed to transform into the book's pages and was then split into pieces and sealed away. In hopes of finding his missing father, a young knight of [[Pelor]] has to join with a part of various shades of [[Stupid Evil]] that are hired by a dark lord to re-create the book. Notably, it manages to portray a rather decent character arc by having him bend his morality and his code in order to survive with a party that mostly hates his guts. Mostly because the one token female of the group turns out to develop feelings for him. Somehow.
