I just showed this movie to my 11 year old nephew. The same age I was when I first saw it in 1985.

[gymrachel]

great film...

[quogequox]

i believe liam neeson makes his debut in this.

[Kuba0002]

The best scene of the movie. Francesca Annis is so beautiful. Nice music too.

[simex909]

2nd best movie after Alien

[SoylentGreen84]

I fucking hate spiders

[errornosignal]

awesome scene! killer name for a metal song \m/xx\m/

[kodachrome71]

Saw this opening weekend in 1983 when I was 12. I'm glad I was a kid during this period of time when films/film music was this good.

[Apophisguard]

2.17 - 2.27 What a beautiful piece of music!

[bhrackley]

I saw this movie for the first time when I was 6, and now I am 25 and it is still one of my favorite films of all time!

[dickphair]

beautiful

[bluesuncompanyman]

Krull is a film that could be remade to expand the narrative of the larger world.  I think if done correctly, it could be quite awsome.

[Penfold8]

Especially with the CGI graphics that can be done today. Can you imagine the Crystal Spiders or Ergo "the Magnificent" changing into an animal.

[hivelocity100]

I dunno....after seeing Hollywood F&*$(# up so many good classics this past decade....I am wary of more remakes...

[kezadrone]

@bluesuncompanyman Yeah.. Get the British to do it again.

[virulito]

That scene is unforgettable.

[Froggy711]

This is why I loved Krull. Thanks for the reminder.

[LarrytheLumberjack]

Great movie!!!!!

[kezadrone]

From that to bloody Emmerdale. Gutted. I remember this scene. It's big cinematic stop-motin sequences like this that made me a film maker and animator.

[richd506]

Damn I haven't seen this movie in ages

[jerryfudala]

How in the world did she get in there in the first place LOL

[t5y665yrty56]

ralph fiennes cast a spell. Voldemorts her boyfriend

[rathraven1313]

@jerryfudala She killed her and Ynyr's only child. This was her punishment.

[yanndick]

My favourite scene from the movie.

[launwatch]

Poignant, moving, artful, beautiful mystical scene, Such talent from everyone involved.

[LarrytheLumberjack]

This is one of my favorite movies. Thanks for posting!

[germanicelt]

I also love the scenery in this film - South Tirol.

[Sububababa]

she turned out to be realy good lucking

[gpwerner]

Not just any B movie/Star Wars ripoff, "Krull"'s rep has improved over time.

I don't think anybody has ever used the viola and the bass to such dramatic effect as James Horner did in scoring this movie. Watch to after the Widow says "You cannot stop time," and try not to be moved by the music. Achingly, inspiringly beautiful.

[germanicelt]

Yes, I was also moved by the music in this scene. They just don't make music like that in sci-fi now.

KRULL is now classic retro sci-fi which can't be replicated.

[BuddyFantastic]

@germanicelt And hopefully never will be either. A remake certainly would lack any of the original magic.

[DaddlerTheDalek]

Wow...

[shelltune]

Freddie Jones. He was fantastic as Thufir in "Dune."

[satxboi30]

I woman in this scene played Lady Jessica in "Dune" as well.

[kabukiscarab]

Francesca annis

[wolfmother1923]

that is the lure of the web

[DrTommyRocks]

LAW of the web.

[AlexDIIM]

I found this scene really sad when I was young and watch this movie for the first time. She was very beautiful and her voice so charming.

[sveikasveta]

esta pelicula y la historia en si es muy bonita. vi esta peli cuando era un nino en el colegio. me encanto. anos despues me la compre. la historia es muy simbolica y rica. La pelicula esta muy bien. ojala que peter jackson haga una version actualizada....

[virulito]

European fantastic movies has a better art design than Hollywood fantasy films. Excalibur, The never ending story, and that, for example.

[JamesE1974]

I just love the transformation and the music in the background when turns back the clock. Just fits so well.

[imanicecreamcone]

This was the main scene I remembered from when I was a kid...that spider scared the shit out of me. Just think it's badass now! ;)

[PeaksBob]

i always thought this was the saddest part of the movie :(

[omniexistus]

always found this to be a creepy scene

[digglyda]

Phwoar! Francesca Annis. Now we're talking, even the name is sexy...

[DrOmega]

could someone link me to the scene before this with the spider?

[synclavier123]

I'm going to have a t-shirt made that says, "I'm Freddie Jones, bitch..."

[Ashworth6]

Yeah but Ralph Fiennes later dumped Annis for a mile-high fling with some slapper air hostess. A shame he did share Freddie Jones' power of vision.

[JamesE1974]

Well she still looks good for her age, but she sure was stunning back then

[CannoliCAT]

My favorite scene in this movie.

Gosh, she looks like my mom!

[JamesE1974]

Francesca Annis was beautiful!

[ComCodex]

And with a voice that could soothe any beast. I never tire of it.

[JamesE1974]

For sure! It is no wonder that Ralph Fiennes dumped Alex Kingston for this beauty!

This scene to me was the best in the whole movie, pity she wasn't younger she would have been a much better Princess than Lysette Anthony.

[JamesE1974]

Her voice is soothing, I could tell she is more of a stage actress than a movie actress. Good for her I read somewhere that Annis never wanted to do the Hollywood route but stay in England and do more stage instead. Props to her!

[AmuseMe]

Wait, so did the spider eat the woman?

[TheConquerMentality]

Yes, the spider did attack and eat her. Since the Woman of the Web took the sands of time from the hour glass, she gave up her life.

[busmaster1]

ein sehr gutgemachtes märchen für erwachsene

[arthurphrain]

Yes, that was Thufir Hawat (Freddie Jones) and the Lady Jessica (Francesca Annis) from David Lynch's movie Dune.

[yanndick]

Two wonderful actors, great set, beautiful score, marvelous stop-motion spider animation... Best scene of an underestimate movie.

[badwolfvlm]

Its great film from UK! other one Excailbur awesome too.

[brettmann]

dude excalibur sucked

[badwolfvlm]

oh no... why? :(

[KaitainCPS]

Excalibur is a madcap flawed masterpiece...barmy and incoherent, but still bizarrely watchable and compelling. A bit like Lynch's Dune. Maybe it's the high production values, sets, costumes and insane energy of the whole thing.

[Mality]

Fantasy with heart and soul...loved the friendship between the doomed cyclops and the comical wizard.

[Domzdream]

Great movie. Among the classics.

[fatalgrace79]

I remember when i was 4 years old in 1983 when my mom took me and my lil brother on a special trip to see this movie. This was in Tijuana keep in mind, and to this day this movie has been and alway will be my alltime favorite! I can't watch this movie without reciting the lines!

[dirtyfighter34]

Awesome movie, soundtrack is classic, 4 stars

[UncleFeedle]

[haisaid]

Cool.

[Sn1p3r87]

Post the Spider Bit up!

[hamsapsifu]

If you can find the score, get it! Its my favourite Horner score of all time... and for such great music... 40 bucks is wisely spend.

[GlavyKrull]

WIddow of the web Lyssaa !!

[katskos]

Yes one of my favorite movies too :) The music from James Horner in it is also great.

[ComCodex]

Excellent music. I wouldn't mind finding the out-of-print 2-disc soundtrack without having to pay $40+.

[locodenaves]

I LOVE THIS MOVIE...VERY RARE..OOOOH
