Lionguard (2018)

LIONGUARD is a short black-comedy film, about a drug-induced psychosis episode, which takes the main character into a medieval fantasy. Lionguard is a fantastically silly medieval black comedy about a brave knight on a quest to take a magical flower back to his castle. Harking back to Monty Python's Holy Grail and parody shows like Garth Marenghi's Darkplace, which themselves reference old adventure cliches, Lionguard is aware of its own ridiculousness and exploits it fully for comic effect. Shot around old Cambridge colleges, which aren't difficult to make look medieval, and in Thetford Forest during last year's snow storms, the film evokes the dark ages very well.
