    In my opinion, this music MAKES the movie. John Milius’ story is solid, Arnold is the right actor for the part. James Earl Jones is an absolute treasure, as is Max Von Sydow (there are NO small parts). But Basil Poledouris’ score elevates this movie to another level, and brings the right emotional notes at each scene to make this a treasured classic.

    As a young man stationed in SouthEast Asia during the Vietnam War, there were periods of time that the base would be closed. During these periods, I had gone over to the base USO station 'to hang out'. I found a complete collection of Robert E. Howard's books..I poured over those books from cover to cover, and the old maps on the inside covers. Come forward to 1982, the exhilaration, joy, and anticipation that welled in me, with the announcement of the "Conan the Barbarian" movie. The magic of Thoth Amon and Thulsa Doom has never faded, and Conan overshadowing the landscape has never stopped!!

Si es violenta, pero no al grado de unas modernas que se dedican a hacer baños de sangre. Esta película es una obra de arte. Muy pocas películas logran unir la música con las escenas y esta es una de ellas. Cada vez que escucho su banda sonora se me erizan los pelos. En fin es una obra de arte cinematográfico.

Envidia de quienes ahí estuvieron. Conan siempre me ha parecido una obra cinematográfica casí del género musical ya que no hay mucho diálogo en la película. El maravilloso trabajo de puesta en escena visual y sonora son su fuerte. El mejor diálogo: "El es Conan, es sumerio, no llorará, así que yo lloro por él" (subotai).

      Perdón, pero..."el es Conan, "el bárbaro", el no llorará..." de hecho Conan no es sumerio (civilización existente antiguamente) sino Cimmerio, por lo demás totalmente de acuerdo, aunque tras el bochornoso trabajo de Momoa en el 2011, prefiero que lo dejen así a que lo estropeen más.

    Not quite Basil's tempo.... (which was a bit faster) but still..... one of the best scores ever and a musical masterpiece. How did THIS not win an Oscar??????

    Está extraordinaria banda sonora está en mi mente por siempre, la se de memoria, ví está película en el cine cuando era un chico, con mis padres, y la sigo viendo siempre que puedo, un verdadero clásico eterno, creo que es la mejor banda sonora de todos los tiempos, junto con otras muy famosas, y por supuesto es la gran película de Arnold. 💪♥️

    AWESOME!!! The Conan soundtracks are some of my favorite music! Not only does it fit the movies but its so powerful. Basil Poledouris was an amazing composer and if he lived and composed this music 100s of years ago, we would talk about him like we do Beethoven, Bach, Mozart and all the other old masters.

    Great conducting! And can we acknowledge her excellent choice of a Boho outfit for this?!

    The conductor looks like she could be in the film - she's very intense

      She's composed some of the best World of Warcraft music that's been done to date (from Auchindoun in Warlords of Draenor). Really cool also seeing her conduct something so iconic as Conan!

      It's just what this score does to you. From her vantage, it must be amazing.

    Conan The Barbarian paved the way for many other films of the genre but 40 years later none has ever succeeded Conan the Barbarian, the film and the music are two unique pieces just like Ben-Hur they can never be imitated !

    You know the soundtrack is good when you can watch the movie in your mind just by listening to the music...
    This and the original Jurassic Park soundtrack both do it..
