I imagine some B movie fans might think they are getting something good with The Sword Of The Barbarians upon seeing the poster or the video box art. They are probably thinking, “A Conan clone done by the Italians? That should mean plenty of unintended laughs along with the majestic backdrops, bloody action, and women who like to show off their melon-sized breasts. And it was picked up by The Cannon Group, who knew a thing or two about exploitation.” Sad to say, the end results, save for the occasional laugh, are pretty dull. In fact, the movie is bad enough in so many ways to embarrass even Ator.

You know, the only sword n’ sorcery film I’ve seen (well, kind of) is “Conan the Destroyer.” I really need to broaden my horizons, don’t I?

“Sangraal”? Good grief: that’s the second anachronistic Holy Grail reference this roundtable.
Can’t the Italians keep their mythologies straight? It’s like they threw a Joseph Campbell book and a vintage copy of Weird Tales in a blender and filmed whatever came out.
