The feature-length independent film Darkon follows the lives of a group of live action role players who gather in their best medievally inspired foam rubber gear to beat the spit out of each other on weekends. If the trailer is any indication, the fight scenes are as gripping as Braveheart and the confessionals as disarming as American Movie. It’s playing at the Gene Siskel Film Center in Chicago from February 23 through March 1.
