Review of Conan the Barbarian (1982) by Gavin P — 19 Aug 2011
Very young Arnie killing lots of people. This was pretty much his first major role & before Terminator and Predator, so it's good that he doesn't have too many lines to speak, because you don't really know what time/world this is set (kind of Vikings crossed with Biblical references).
Some of the sorcery stuff was lame (80s SFX) as was the giant snake, but it's basically Conan getting vengeance for his village/parents being killed. Not horrible, but not amazing either...
