does anyone remember a movie of this type ..in which one of the characters a RANGER of blue-green skin color ..used a rifle that fired arrows and the rifle used small gas globes that grew on trees as propellants ? ive been looking for this flick forever forgot name saw it as double feature with HAWK! everyone thinks im nuts!
@TheAUDIOARCADE Damn i remember that movie... Was it that movie where they were transported to some other dimension and they also used those gas globes to build fire?
The character I liked best in this movie was the "Devil's Agent" or whatever his name was. That character should've been explored more. Totally evil basterd, hehe!
Can anyone post clips from "The Archer, fugitive from the Empire"?
Finally got to see "woman" with her mask off :). Its Patricia Quinn (Magenta from Rocky Horror Picture Show). I always thought its was a different Patricia, but there she is!
What a cracking post! I've never seen this footage. All those guys with arrows through their rumps sitting around reading the script really cracked me up. The bit about the eggs was interesting, though.
Awesome post. always adored this film for it's fun factor. Ping Pong balls ftw!(If you haven't seen it, look for the scene as they raid the church with the witch helping.
great to see everyone having such fun. must've played a big part in how fun the movie ended up being. great stuff, would love to see this movie again. thanks for posting such a gem. "look well, little brother!"
This is wonderful-- the extra reading the paper with the arrow coming out of his chest, Gort with his glasses, and Jack Palance rolling his eyes at the questions about Voltan. I love seeing Morgan Sheppard and Patricia Quinn talking about their characters and showing that they were having fun with the whole thing.
Cheezy? Definitely, but it's 1 of the best fantasy films of the 80s with its medievalistic dialogue, great humor, disco-hero music, and brooding atmosphere. Is that a slightly tipsy Jack Palance being interviewed there? Maybe that was the secret of Voltan's charm. Gort & Balden are as funny here as in the movie. Now we see what The Woman looked like under her head gear. Great clip -- thanks! Why didn't it come with the DVD? If only there were more...
I agree. That roll call comprises some of "the best." And Hawk is 1 of them. I'd say the worst is probably Sword & Sorcerer, though Lee Horsley deserves an Oscar for most hilariously schmarmy hero.
Haha, schmarmy, I havent had heard that word for a while.
Sword and Sorcerer, definitely the worst. Note how I didn't mention it. I think it was a Hollywood attempt. Oh, and Conan the Destroyer is horrible as all hell - makes me puke.
I think Krull is the best of em all. Liam Neisen is in that too.
I would never have guessed such a bit of film existed. Thank you very much for posting it!!! Despite its many faults, Hawk the Slayer really is a great movie for the fantasy genre.
I love getting a peek at what goes on behind the scenes -- actors reading the newspapers around the arrows sticking out of their chests, Gort with glasses, Crow showing the camera the bells in his hair (I could never tell what they WERE, before.) Thank you!
the hunchback would have something to say about this!

"This is a story of heroic deeds, and the bitter struggle for the triumph of good over evil, and, of a wonderous sword, weilded by a mighty hero...."
Anyone care to finish the quote? Only a true Hawk the Slayer fan will pass the test!

Yes!!! We have a winner!!!
(actually, stalked is just stalk, but that's close enough)
Way to go, connor828!!!

Jack waxing philosophic about the psychology of Voltan??? Um...Jack, it's a fantasy movie -- it's okay for Voltan to be evil through and through.
Love this good-bad movie!

No way dude, either Conan the Barbarian, Dragonslayer or Krull is the best of the 80s.
Did you recognize Bernard Bresslaw from the Carry-On movies or Terry from Full Metal Jacket.
