mightymothra I loooved this movie. It starts like a medieval Fury Road and becomes a brilliantly dim-as-dishwater brawler adventure featuring some of the most charming heroes I can remember ever seeing. The characters are memorable, the sets are varied, the action is good, and there are surprises aplenty.I particularly liked how it cracks dumb jokes all the time but doesn't care, winning through with the same macho bravado that made Commando so great. The leading men are exactly what barbarians should be, and it's impossible not to love them for it.Special effects vary wildly from hilarious to genuinely impressive, RIGHT back to hilarious. A scene with a swamp dragon in particular springs to mind. A lot of effort went into this flick, and the result is something unique and mighty enjoyable.
dworldeater Hilarious and highly entertaining sword and sorcery action fantasy starring the infamous Barbarian Brothers. The Barbarian Brothers are gigantic, heavy metal bodybuilder twins that live up to their name. In this fun filled film, our heroes clobber the bad guys, flex and clown around a lot. Horror icon Michael Berryman of The Hills That Have Eyes fame makes a memorable cameo as The Dirtmaster, a slavemaster that tortured the brothers and turned them into angry barbarians. Richard Lynch(Invasion USA) is the main villain and the reason the brothers call to arms and take action. Directed by Ruggero Deodato of Cannibal Holocaust fame. The Barbarians has little in common with Cannibal Holocaust though. This feature is tongue in cheek, action packed and a lot of fun. Definitely recommended for fans of low budget 80's fantasy movies, The Barbarians is above average as well as outrageous and very amusing film. Awesome!
Alohalani Sheeba Alahani I was China in this film. I choose the screen name Sheeba Alahani because I was modeling at the time in Italy and they couldn't pronounce my real name correctly, so I choose Sheeba and then added Alahani since it was similar to Alohalani.I had never acted before (and it shows), but it was so much fun to film. They gave me "acting lessons" each morning (which obviously were not useful). They dubbed my voice (thank goodness).David and Peter were a blast on the set, full of good humor and jokes. This film was never meant to be taken seriously, it was a tax write off according to inside information. I give it a 1 because I have a sense of humor, but a 10 for the fun I had "acting" in it.
Peter Malone I have to agree that this isn't a movie you should watch expecting to see Conan or something. This totally belongs in Mystery Science Theater 3000, and should be forever immortalized as the timeless piece that it is. It has always been one that I've enjoyed and gotten many laughs from. The storyline is ridiculous and the acting is atrocious, but it all lends itself to the humor. I think that at the time the idea that weight lifters could act had some appeal. Look at Arnold, he did well for himself, but I'm not so sure if these two ever returned to the movie business. So take this movie with a grain of salt, and then maybe a shot chased by a lemon wedge, because it is excellent entertainment and very funny if you keep in mind just how silly it is.
