    Krull blew me away as a kid. I still love it to this day. It was on par with the original Conan films and even the first Beast Master. It deserves more recognition.

      That's because Dungeons and Dragons is not the kind of game that has a story built in. It's just mechanics to facilitate storytelling. That seems to be the thing that every D&D movie forgets. For guidelines on the right way to do this, see The Lego Movie.

      Keep your DVD (as it's packed with extras), but you may want to look into getting the blu-ray release if you'd like to enjoy KRULL in high definition. Mill Creek Entertainment just recently re-released several blus with VHS based slipcovers with Krull being one of them:
      www.millcreekent.com/krull-retro-vhs-look-blu-ray.html
      Walmart has the VHS slipcover edition for $7.50 online, should be about that price in store (some stores have a whole section of VHS inspired slipcover movies).

      Many years ago there was a video store near where I lived that was going out of business (this was in the inbetween time when DVD was starting to take over, but a lot of stuff was still in VHS). I went in to see if they might have anything I would like. Sure enough, they had a copy of Krull in VHS. I was so happy to pay the guy $5 for it. Man I love this movie! Sadly, about 4-5 years later I finally gave up my VHS collection and moved completely over to DVD. Haven't picked up a copy of yet on DVD, but have watched it a few times on Kodi ;]

    Right at the beginning of your video you get the whole plot wrong, they do not set out on a quest to get the glaive. In fact getting the glaive is pretty much the first thing Colwyn does after the slayers invade and take Lyssa. The quest that they do set out on is finding the Black Fortress, because the fortress magically teleports to a new location each day at sunrise.

      When he went to get the glaive, he knew where it was, it wasn't too difficult to get at maybe some light mountain climbing, and there wasn't even some kind of guardian to fight or traps to aviod, just stick your hand in some glowing goo and grab it. There just wasn't any struggle or hardship endured to acquire the glaive.

    Absolutely love Krull - one of my all time favourite fantasy movies. The actor who played Torquil - Alun Armstrong - went to the same grammar school as my dad when they were boys. They were both members of the school's drama society, and are still friends to this day. I've got a photo of them in Hamlet, where my dad is playing Hamlet's father, and Hamlet is played by Alun. Later, dad was a producer in BBC radio, and the first programme he made as part of his producer's training was picked up for broadcast by Radio 4, and he got Alun to narrate it.

    This has been one of my guilty pleasure faves (along with Ice Pirates), and I love that Glave! Reminds me of Xena's chakram (even though they don't look exactly alike). Just loved the music and I used to go to the arcade in my early teens after I saw it to play the video game version. It was kooky and fun! Thanks for this Minty!

    HOLY SHIT! I've had this little pewter dragon figure for years. So long, in fact, that I had no memory where it had come from. Then, watching this video, I saw it in the clip about the D&D dungeon game! I never knew that game existed, so I don't know how I wound up with that little figure. But thank you! You solved a huge mystery for me!

      Matthew Starfish Funny you should say that, because Minty kept mispronouncing her name so that it sounded like “Lisa.”
      No offense is intended, Minty, but the character’s name was pronounced more like the actress who played her (Lysette Anthony).
      I actually didn’t know that another actress voiced her, though. And this is one of my all time favorites! Thanks for the info, Mate.
