Review of Legend (1985) by Boo ~ — 08 Feb 2009
Probably one of the most bizarre films I have seen. Its not like anything else it felt like I was watching LOTR or The Chronicles of Narnia but kind of different. The special effects and set designs were amazing.
The film is visually fantastic and surprised me how good it was for a film made 1985. The things I heard about how it took 3 years to get done and with all the troubles it had is crazy. I think the reason we never hear about this film is that even though you think its a kids movie it really appeals to both.
I had trouble though figuring out what to take it as. I mean I enjoyed the movie but if I had seen this as a kid I think I would have been scared especially Tim Curry's voice and the Darkness costume.
Overall, though I can see this becoming a cult classic or something that will be rediscovered thanks to the reimplemented score and directors cut.
