Joe (Ryan Kwanten) is a heavy metal rocker
hardly, he is more like an emo/screamo/nu- 'rocker'
in which pretend knights, elves, and barbarians clash with foam weaponry...
Once LARPers start to turn up dead, the make-believe wizards and warriors must become the real life heroes they have been pretending to be
so what happened to the foam weapons, turned into real weaponry?
summons a deadly succubus that takes Beth's seductive form
thats actually pretty nasty from the scriptwriters: the succubus obviously symbolizes the 'bad' girlfriend (through depicting her as an 'evil' being she also symbolizes women in general, the 'eves' of the world - that's a visible misogynistic element covered up by the comedic appearance of the movie), guilty of dumping the main character - now he gets a chance not only to have simple revenge but to actually slaughter the 'eve' for being so 'evil' to his majesty, the male ego - furthermore, everyone watching will be cheering for the main character without realizing whats actually being celebrated here
