Teh Epic Season 1 Episode 1

Reviewed by Ben Lee

This review contains some spoilers.

The directors of the Videogame Nightmare series are back with this hilarious movie, Teh Epic Episode 1. So, what's it about? A random guy, named Bob, and someone else, who is just known as a squire, go off to find and rescue Princess Mary. With RPG elements in, fans of Videogame Nightmare 2 should easily get into it and join in with the laughs.

The animations and scenery are great, definitely above average, but if you are picky about that...oh dear. Come on! It's a comedy! Comedies are meant to make you laugh, and jokes do that, not fancy animations! There are plenty of hilarious bits such as the constant random battles in the forest and Mike and Justin, the directors, pull it off again. Voice-acting, overall, is good. The narrator, voiced by Mike himself, is great. He tells the story very well and there are no complaints there. Bob's voice, by Tuna Hematoma, is almost just as good, and so thumbs up for him too. But the squire's voice was a bit muffled, and it wasn't always clear what he said, but it was just about good enough.

But the main point of the movie is to make you laugh. And credit to them, they really have produced a movie which has made me laugh out loud a lot. From meeting Bob himself in the opening scenes to the final ones where our heroes end up in Fellowshipville, Teh Epic Episode 1 really does produce enough funny jokes. They just seem to crop up everywhere, from start to finish, and they always seem fresh and unrepetitive.

Eight more episodes coming up soon? Yes please! If the next few are as good and funny as this, we could have something special. Something really special. I could even like this more than the Videogame Nightmare movies. And that would be hard to beat! But at the moment, it doesn't quite match up to VGN2. Having said that though, this is still definitely one to download and watch. Not many comedies are as funny as this. VGN and RPG fans? This is a must. Everyone else? Watch it. You wouldn't want to miss out on the fun, would you? Come on, join Bob and...some random squire in their hilarious adventure. Just relax, take in the jokes, and laugh yourself out. I'll meet you in Fellowshipville.

Score: 91/100
