"Highlander" Kurgan-Themed TV Spot

Created with the Star Wars prequel character TV spots in mind, but applied to Highlander. I only ever made two of these - one for Ramirez (Sean Connery) and one for the Kurgan (Clancy Brown). This is for The Kurgan. Featuring "Gimmie The Prize (Kurgan's Theme)" by Queen. Editor's Notes @ http://www.michalak.org/realm/Highlander_tv.html

This is miles better than a lot of legitimate adverts these days.

@Tryzon I appreciate the praise. There does seem to be a severe lack of innovative advertising these days. Gotta hook the audience in. I love editing trailers because of that. To capture just the right hook for the film is immensely satisfying to me. Editing is absolutely an art. I just wish I had the connections to make a living off of it.

[The1darkwarlock]

@Tryzon i totaly agree

[The1darkwarlock]

nice video nick

[Tryzon]

@NickMichalak I concur completely. And it's a shame that your passion and obvious skill can't also earn you a few bob, but stuff like this is just glorious. Know that us folk on the Webternets appreciate your magic, even if the professional world has yet to acknowledge it :D

Kurgan is one of the best movie villains ever.

@Kenjutsumasters it doenst have to make sense, cause its impossible for the immortals in the highlander universe to even know how to claim the prize cause it's really impossible to win it since theres thousands of them. the only way to win the prize is to defeat your most immortal enemy, in which that is the prize.

[Kenjutsumasters]

@Highlander01 Your probably right the other way it dose not make any cense lol

[Highlander01]

@Kenjutsumasters The Prize is based on the immortals deepest desires, at least thats what I think. Connor won, and he received his wish; to grow old, have a family and have a wife and live in peace. If Kurgan has won the prize, his desire would probably have been to stay immortal and dominate the world.
