Two new featurettes set in the universe of Dead Gentlemen Productions’ The Gamers series. Humans & Households: A group of the kingdom’s bravest adventurers attempt to relax on their day off with a game of Humans & Households, where they face the terrors of suburban life, a roving pack of automobiles, intruder alarm systems, and a dire household guardian. From the mind of writer-director Matt Vancil comes a comedy about roleplaying gaming ten years in the making! Natural One: When Gary (Christian Doyle) learns that his sister is engaged to a non-gamer, he drags Leo (Scott C. Brown) to Canada for a no-holds-barred gaming showdown in an urban cyberpunk wasteland. While their characters quest for a missing cybernetic arm, Gary must decide between completing his in-game mission or sabotaging the group and his sister’s relationship.

A fun romp in the converse world of fantasy role-playing
This is actually two features in one. Households and Humans looks at what happens when fantasy adventurers role-play in the world of dire autos and friendly dogs with unexpectedly funny results. My favorite part of this was the very insightful political satire. Well done!The main movie on this DVD is a spinoff of the Gamers when one of the party members sister is potentially marrying -gasp- a non-gamer. The suitor must be put through "the gaming gauntlet." It's cute.

The way your surpose to enjoy the game with friends.
I thought it was great with some comic parts the players played at instead of like most people playing they take it to serious like it was real and not for the fun time your supports to have with friends and family members.

it's excellent. If you're not a gamer
I'm biased as being a large fan of the various Zombie Orpheus productions and a long time gamer, so I "get it".If you're a gamer, it's excellent. If you're not a gamer, you'll probably give it 1 star and complain.

D&D, from a different perspective, I'd also title it "What if we acted in real life the way we do in D&D". An entertaining and highly comical take on typical D&D stereotypes with a twist.

This is a movie trip for anyone who games. it juxtaposes reality with the gamer mentality. It is good for a humorous evening.

Do yourself a favor , watch paint dry on a wall.
The premise is better then the reality. I will never get back the time I watched Humans and Households. The other short story was much better. ..but still lacking.
