I watched "Westender" (http://www.westendermovie.com/) Today. I liked it. Go see if your local video joint has it.
It's low budget, so no massive armies of orcs and trolls. It's about a knight, who was once a great hero, and who has since become a gambling alcoholic because his fiancee was murdered. One day he wakes up to find out that he gambled away his most prized possesion, a ring worn by his fiancee. He runs off to skewer the guy's who took it. The movie centers on his journey of redemption.
The good points include the location shooting. It was all done in Oregon (I didn't know oregon had desert locations to shoot in, but I've been shown wrong). The editing and cinematography really show off the beauty of the pacific northwest well. The other good point is the score, which I thought was very nice.
The bad is that some of the story doesn't really make sense. But hey, it's a renter anyway.
