A fresh take on the evils of roleplaying games and how the lines between games and reality can become blurred (anyone remember back in the 80s when Dungeons and Dragons was said to be the work of the devil?), 13 Demons sees three nerdy guys get a hold of a long-banned board game called 13 Daemons – why banned? Well apparently 30 years ago, when the game originally debuted, there was a slew of murders of innocent people by those that were playing the game; as the line between the game and reality became blurred for all that took part.

Trevor Newandyke is a struggling small-time comedian. Not only does he bomb on stage, but he bombs in everyday life. To him, it’s the little things that matter most.
