Review Summaries

"Italian-made sword-and-sorcery adventure about a bare- chested barbarian seeking revenge for the killing of his tribe by an evil warlord backed up by an evil demi-goddess. Our hero is joined by a woman and an Asian archer, fights through various perils, and is granted a magical crossbow(?) to slay the witch. Lousy makeup effects, laughable plot devices, naked women, tire tracks on the road, this film is bad on so many levels, you can't help but laugh and stare in shock and disbelief. At least the sword fights are a half-step away from being worthless. "
