My first memories about this film I come from a gossip magazine and decades ago. I do not remember if Ten Minutes, Hello or some reading.
Ken Marshall, the star of this film, was very famous in the early 80's in Spain for the beautiful mini-series Marco Polo, which he recreated the adventures of explorer and adventurer in eight innings.
Then in a gossip magazine took pictures of a science fiction film he was doing Ken Marshall Krull, and the truth that sets designs dazzled me. It was so strange!
The film is not without its point of daring but from a solid and professional approach.
is a mixture of 50% of a history of Dungeons & Dragons to Lord of the Rings, with 50% of science fiction to The Wars, Star Wars.
How can such a combination very disparate genres?
For in a world of medieval atmosphere there is much magic: Cyclops, wizards, monsters, magical animals, etc ... Then from the space becomes a kind of massive black meteorite shaped mountain lands on the planet and it turns out the vast base of evil invaders, aliens chung.
The interiors of the ship have an organic, rather inspired by the type of artwork and designs of HR Giger, who did so well in Alien, the eighth passenger.
And inside is a giant evil monster who kidnaps the princess of the moment, and also has troops armed with laser beams that destroy castle raid towns and kill civilians.
The move is the mountain fortress of evil change of location ... EVERY DAY! As each day is located in a different part of the world, making it virtually impossible to organize an attack to it.
But then the good, the boy, in the purest tradition of The Lord of the Rings, is a company, say a group of heroes, those who undertake the mission to rescue the princess and a kick in the ass the invading aliens. Of course! They can go somewhere else to play the balls, dammit!
This requires:
A) with the help of clairvoyance, see where this day will touch-base of the mountain to locate the ill-success and attack
B) requires a magical weapon capable of destroying the giant alien head , which is none other than a magical flying ninja star. A retractable tip shuriken that found in the lava of a volcano
C) to get faster to the base of the poor before they move again, ncesita half ultra-fast transport that is none other than fabulous magical horses that where they go, because of its speed, leaving trails of fire
And of course, a hero worth his salt has his traveling companions: a boy, a giant cyclops, a wizard, warrior bullies (attention to a young Liam Neeson) etc ...
A detail of the film that fascinated me is that according to this, the Cyclops are born knowing what day it will die, and it is sad to see how being faced his fate with courage and gravity die is not fun, but does so with courage, honor and balls.
The film is a cocktail of action, adventure, fantasy, monsters and a million special effects well done.
film positive thing is that such elements could have gone a shit the size of a grand piano, but those responsible for the production pushed for impeccable visual quality (the film cost in time between 25 and $ 35 million ), a serious and consistent script that does not take lightly the story or joke, and an impeccable rhythm and sexy film.
Today the film is charming and entertaining me. His proposal is absurd, I know, but that kind of films fantasy classics as they are so well made and have rhythm, they are always fun to see them.
The film was a box office flop in America, grossing only about $ 16 million in theaters, and it's really weird because the film is interesting, entertaining and cool.
not as bad as many claim. I personally recommend it as quality family entertainment.
