The director Steve Barron also directed Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Coneheads. And he also directed the music video of Michael Jackson's song; Billie Jean from his Thriller album.
a woman comes to the door dressed in a corset, netting and glitter with strange hair and a creepy voice who you know to be evil and asks to hold the new born baby......SURE! Why not?!
i had too watch this at school this movie really sux there's tons of pointless stop motion, wtf with nab's voice, 6 freaking sex scenes and it's rated PG it was the worst movie i've ever had to sit through
In my opinion this is the best Merlin interpretation in television. Despite the fact that it hasn't got a big Hollywood tipe buget the movie focuses on the essentials: the battle between good and evil and the important fact that good dose not allways win. Wonderful movie 10/10.
@SatiricalSunflower No the one in dark clothes is Queen Mab, and yes she's like Merlin's creator. He was created for a purpose a destiny if you must, if not for Mab he would never have been born.
God that serial where Merlin is a fcking teen should be forbidden in the whole universe...
This movie is amazing, a wonderful part of my childhood, just like the Magical Legend of the Leprechauns and the 10th Kingdom are. Beautiful stories that are suited for all ages.
I'm watching this on 2011 and its still amazing...just as before :3 I've been wanting to see this movie for so long :DDD...Plus...ANYONE ELSE THINK MIRANDA RICHARDSON IS KINDA HOT :D?
miranda richardson looks gorgeous as queen mebb, it's weird how i don't find her attractive in any other film....but that's just personal taste....used to watch this movie when i was little and legit cried at the end the first time lol
While I can sympathize with Mab's situation, I can't really say her apathetic nature really gave people reason to believe in her. Had she saved the ones Merlin loved, maybe he might have understood her cause and done what he could to save the Old Religion. In a way, Mab brought upon her own destruction by not caring.
And I really loved this movie. Sam Neil was such a radical change from the old bearded wizard we came to know, the music, the story... a masterpiece.
is the DVD version the full-length miniseries? I read on a site that TV airings of this movie include footage not on the video versions and vice versa.
Still one of the best King Arthur adaptations.Still want to see "Once and Future King" to be done in its entirety. That new Camelot show on Starz is just not good at all IMO.
Maybe Ridley Scott should take King Arthur on next.
is the DVD version the full-length miniseries? I read on a site that TV airings of this movie include footage not on the video versions and vice versa.
I don't know where you see the low budget...maybe for these days...but in those times it was pretty much thing. and yes, the acting brings the magic to it.
@Whosimon ...You're both only 20,so what are you talking about ?You're one year away from being a "teenager",still "kids",wait,...till you hit 36,then....42,then.....58,then.....64.Then.................
Good god,I saw it when I was very little (I was in kindergarten back then),I think I saw it on the Hallmark channel...Brings back such memories,back then this film was a reveletion for me ^^
Now I won't say that anymore,but this well done for that times (1998) ^^
@HEEHEE35 i think that its very good characterization. sure it's annoying and grating like nails on a blackboard but maybe she does that so the audience naturally hates her a little. and also she's a faerie :)
@1andonlySaraEliza Elrond isn't in this movie....if you're referring to the one from The Lord of the Rings. In LOTR, Elrond is played by Hugo Weaving. In this movie, Merlin is played by Sam Neill.
I have been searching for this over and over for a really long time, ever since I discovered Youtube back in '07 or something. Thank you so much for posting! :)
OMG one of the BEST MADE fantasy movies out there so well put togather!!! Wish I could find it to purchase it at a decent price, but glad to find it here on youtube
I would not call Queen Mab a villain. . .per se, her world was dissolving - the New Religion was taking over and the Old Religion was forgotten, she was fighting for her people.
@7Famark Unfortunately Mab can't accept the fact that all things change. It seems her fear of change has unbalanced her all her other kindred has accepted was must be.
@chimera1277 In my opinion it would be pretty difficult to accept that you will no longer exist, especially if there is a chance that you may, if you are willing to fight
@7Famark A well-intentioned extremist and a sympathetic villain I'd say, she's well-meaning she's just willing to resort to evil techniques to accomplish her goals.
@NinjaInConverse that voice is easily to create. drink abottle of wodka, let it get through your head another time, then smoke 1-3 potts of waterpipe.
