Fondest memory of this? The bit in "Pineapple Express" where they talk about this film. But hey, you've got SW and Sommersverse people in it, so I'll watch.
In the net a critic says this movie is for sure not on the top of someone´s favorite movies list. Well, it is on mine. I really enjoy it. It is so adventurous and fantastic and full of action and tension and beautiful designs and it has that special creepy atmosphere...Just amazing!
The greatest aspect about this film for I was that when I first saw I was a kid!!! If I can go back in time and watch this for the first time again would be a truly mystifying gift!!
A film, a cast, a soundtrack, a plot, a fantasy ................. so real to I years later and many many times viewed!!! In the late Eighties when I recorded this on VHS I used to rewind the tape over and over again to listen to the opening Main Title score. This film was and is my destiny in life. My Queen.
hollywood should remake this one..if they can do great things wit transformers n all those superhero movies,they should start doing the same thing wit late 70's n early 80's sci fi n fantasy movies,krull needs a remake coz it invovles aliens,magic n swords..no alien invasion movie today can do that,most aliens invasion movies today are based on 21st century earth,shit almost all aliens invades 21st century earth,krull is different,the aliens came during medieval times..thats awesome.
They don't make this type of heroic fantasy anymore (well okey maybe LOTR but you know what I mean). A real good adventure movie just to watch and relax. Also a really young Liam Nesson in there is quite fun to watch.
Seen this movie when I was young and after that ugly-hug-me and too-good-for-this-world cyclop was squashed like a sorry bug between the walls I became traumatized and disturbed for the rest of my school years!
@l8erh8er420 Me too. I hate when people dis this movie/claim it's 1 of the worst. I can agree with, well not agree, but understand/respect a person's "dislike" of this movie, but not when the say it was a bad or terrible movie. Claiming that, goes beyond personal opinion. It was a pretty good movie. As a kid, my uncle took my cousin & I to see it at the theater. I've liked it ever since. Bought it on VHS & DVD. I also have it on .avi & DIVX. I would guess that makes me a fan!
@Purplecatsoup30 Well, Composer James Horner scored a lot of Movies (including both "Titanic" and, more recently, "Avatar") and many of his Themes (especially from the 80s) sound similar. Maybe you are reminded of "Battle Beyond the Stars", "Star Trek II" or "Willow". Take a look at his filmography. :)
if you really think about it, there really isnt no more imagination. It all has to be real to people instead of creating something out of pure imagination. Fantasy movies allowed directors to be imaginative and creative, but it's very rare to fine a true classic fantasy movie now a days
Free energy technology exists!But the Big corporations spend millions to ensure that information does not spread to the masses,Get a real free energy motor at LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM ,Let the revolution begin!
Lol i still got this on video i used to watch it every single day at least twice when I was kid and same for the film labyrinth with david bowie :D isnt it beautiful!! THE FOOKIN GLAVE !!! Aka the bitch disc
You are right. It's because of the same composer (James Horner). He reuses many parts from the music in ST2/3. Krull and ST2 was filmed nearly at the same time.
This film is a calssic ! I has it on Beta max !!! LOL Was the 1st Fantasy film i ever watch, the music is still today epic, id rather watch this than all 3 LOTR films ^_^
It never surprises me as I grow older just how many 80's films had rockin soundtracks even be it film with symphony scores like this IMMENSE gem. When I saw this film as a child with my family man it was the best movie that I could ever see and the best rule of life that I could ever live by. I too seek the Black Fortress!!!
@germanicelt I disagree. Considering that many times the sequel doesn't measure up to Part One, I think Jackson did it right when he left it alone. Besides, many movies were, and are, made without a sequel in mind. Only after the box office receipts come in does some idiot in management think that it's a good idea for a sequel. The first movie might have taken 10 years to create, and management wants a sequel in 18 months.
ridley scott put kids into astronauts suits to make an alien set look bigger, and said "this is our million dollar movie shot" --- and he was right btw,- that´s what it is all about,- illusion, imagination, storytelling,-
but kiddos of today are really too spoiled to even understand that
I've seen this with mom and dad. While watching I was in awe like mesmerized, and those monsters with the octopus brain inside theie hideous masks, cmon. This is supercool, I just love this medieval-space crap, fuck, why there's no more films like this. I would enjoy it even now.
Freddie Jones is great, the soundtrack is awesome, the swamp scene is fascinating. Call it a B-movie as much you like, I enjoy it every time I watch it.
Dying because someone's run out of sand - I think it's a very peculiar cause of death.
A and B isn't a way to refer to this type of movie. This had huge production values and was not B to any other film in the cinemas of the 80's. B picture means it was showen after the A feature and did not get top billing i.e A. But this system was not used anymore by the time of this films release. Hope this clears it up.
thanx for posting it but directed by Peter Yates... staring Freddy Jones, Liam Neeson, Robby Coltrane, David Battlery, Francesca Annis & Alun Armstrong filmed in Pinewood Studios.. .. its no B movie kinda of an insult calling it a B movie but again thnx for posting ... really really LOVE this Movie!
Pay attention to the remakes out in the past 10 years, then you would not like to see a remake of this or anything else for that matter. But I would trust John Carpenter to make a variation of it. Like he did with "Thing"
I wouldn't mind if this film got remade one day as long as a good director like James Cameron makes it, some old cast members return like Robbie Coltrane and Liam Neeson, stays very close to the original like the same storyline, have less CGI effects, and more action scenes.
Its about a "kingdom in the sky" and in the beginning of the movie they are attack by "a witches" forces in flying ships and stuff, but later when the kingdoms sends a armada against the witch she use a "ageing machine"(making people grow older uberfast) on them. Or somthing that way. It have similar graphic and stuff. So anybody who recall a movie like this reply..
Yes, indeed. I recall the arcade game. I dumped more than a healthy share of quarters in it (when games only COST a quarter). Also. I had forgotten that Horner did the score to this film. His composing and arranging style is as distinctive and recognizable as is JW's stuff. (BTW did you know that John Williams did the opening music for LOST IN SPACE?) Anyway, not anywhere near the greatest film ever made, but orders of magnitude better than the comic-book based crap being made these days.
people now a days are spoiled with cgi and huge special effects that look real...when I was a kid you had to use your imagination more and what they did with the little they had makes these films stand out above all the newer films..
@Drakiis Oh please just leave out the anti-CGI speech. Movies today like The Lord of the Rings make extensive use of CGI for special effects, but then so did this one, they just didn't have CGI back in these days. If they had made this movie today, they would have used CGI. This movie had a fairly simple and cliched plot but I bet they were hoping the impressive special effects would sell.
I am glad to see that others know about this movie and like it also i really like it when I saw it in 1983 first time had to see it in german at a movie theatre there i just love the princess!
I don´t get what´s supposed to be bad about this movie. Okay, the story is primitive and very similiar to Star Wars...but the production design and most of the characters are very fascinating to me. I´ve never seen someone like the Emerald prophet, the Widow in the Web or Ergo (a very ambivalent character) before or after.
..actually it's not a "B" movie since it's score was done by James Horner...and if you happen to see the effects they were superb during those times...it's actualy an upgrade from those sword and sandal films from the "80s. i loved this movie...it also had behind the scenes special during those times for their production...so this is definitely not a "B" movie. :)
I love this movie. It's not academy award material, but I still like it. It's kind of a "cult classic". It also has Liam Neeson in 1 of his earliest roles. The special fx are on par with similar movies from that era. As a kid, I remember my uncle taking my cousin & I to see this at the theater. Also, it has an (pretty cool) arcade video game based on it, & also an (not as cool) Atari 2600 port. It was 1 of the first video games based on a movie. Popeye being the other.
I remember seeing this back in 1983 at the Odeon in Worthing. A brilliant movie and vastly under-rated. James Horner's score is superb with a touch a la Wrath Of Khan & Battle Beyond The Stars. Thanks for uploading.
@eastwood13 The film had a poor opening weekend and suffered dreadful reviews. Variety called it a "blatantly derivative hodgepodge of Excalibur meets Star Wars." The BBC chimed, "a sub standard space opera with pretensions to being a British Star Wars."
Smallfrogge is right. This was filmed in the locations he mentions. Actors' accents have little to do with where a movie is filmed. A little bit of research proves verd3 and klbates all kinds of wrong.
You brought back some memories. I remember this when I was in third grade. I was spending a year at my grandmothers house in Philly, and watched this on HBO (the only other rival then was WHT). I just turned 33 and.... Thanks for uploading..... I watched this movie so many times when I was little... Wow.... Age is a curse.
yay! Thanks for uploading. I was hoping I'd find this movie on youtube :) One of my favorites when I was little. I both loved it and was freaked out by it, lol.
and yet one of the cheesiest "B" grade fantasy flicks called "the sword and the sorcerer" is worth the most, seen it as high as 50 bucks on dvd because of it being out of print. I think krull may be the same, i know Ice pirates is OOP too heh
I just realize the failure of my ways. I've been looking for this movie for a very, long time. But I was led astray, I thought this move was that of a Beastmaster movie.
I remember many scenes, mainly in the fortress, some kid, a tiger, and people being stabbed by the walls, but that's about it. But, from those scenes I can see why I thought it was Beastmaster...
But now I can finally view the movie in all it's low-budget splendor.
You do have a point there. And it's funny because the actual "living He-Man" movie was... pretty terrible (Aside from the opening), but Beastmaster, he's kind of a bad ass.
I used to hate low budget movies, but looking back on them, I really enjoy them now. They seem almost better then some current movies.
Ah, my mistake. I usually see the word "B-movie" has to do with low budget, but maybe I'm wrong after all.
Still though, I don't think the original SW saga was all that big of a budget, maybe in the future films like RoTJ.
Regardless though, despite it "not" being low budget, I still have not been able to locate this movie from my memory since, I don't know, whenever it came out.
Maybe it wasn't low budget, but it was definitely obscure, otherwise I would have known it by now...
I can t watch the movie cause it s no aviable in movil!!! Please, could you please fix that? An put aviable on movil?! Please.

knightwoolf1-Man I haven't seen this movie in a long time. And hell no, it wasn't a B movie. Back then this was a hit. One of the best!

No they didn't. It was filmed in the UK, Italy and the Canary Islands. Check these things before you post next time.

@smallfrogge excuse me I don't think they filmed this in UK. I don't think the people don't talk like UK way.I agree with @verd3.

@verd3 I agree with you there that they filmed this in NJ. I don't know why @smallfrogge saying about this was made in UK.
klbates 2 years ago
He is saying it because it is true, just check the movies filming locations for the FACTS!

Smallfrogge is right. This was filmed in the locations he mentions. Actors' accents have little to do with where a movie is filmed. A little bit of research proves verd3 and klbates all kinds of wrong.

You brought back some memories. I remember this when I was in third grade. I was spending a year at my grandmothers house in Philly, and watched this on HBO (the only other rival then was WHT). I just turned 33 and.... Thanks for uploading..... I watched this movie so many times when I was little... Wow.... Age is a curse.

and yet one of the cheesiest "B" grade fantasy flicks called "the sword and the sorcerer" is worth the most, seen it as high as 50 bucks on dvd because of it being out of print. I think krull may be the same, i know Ice pirates is OOP too heh

OMG.
I just realize the failure of my ways. I've been looking for this movie for a very, long time. But I was led astray, I thought this move was that of a Beastmaster movie.
I remember many scenes, mainly in the fortress, some kid, a tiger, and people being stabbed by the walls, but that's about it. But, from those scenes I can see why I thought it was Beastmaster...
But now I can finally view the movie in all it's low-budget splendor.

Beastmaster rocked too..he was a living He-Man
ModernNosferatu 2 years ago
You do have a point there. And it's funny because the actual "living He-Man" movie was... pretty terrible (Aside from the opening), but Beastmaster, he's kind of a bad ass.
I used to hate low budget movies, but looking back on them, I really enjoy them now. They seem almost better then some current movies.
Waxer3929 2 years ago
This movie wasn't low budget. It cost 27 million which was almost the same budget as "Return of the Jedi" which was released the same year.
thx291 2 years ago
Ah, my mistake. I usually see the word "B-movie" has to do with low budget, but maybe I'm wrong after all.
Still though, I don't think the original SW saga was all that big of a budget, maybe in the future films like RoTJ.
Regardless though, despite it "not" being low budget, I still have not been able to locate this movie from my memory since, I don't know, whenever it came out.
Maybe it wasn't low budget, but it was definitely obscure, otherwise I would have known it by now...
