We continue our 80’s Grab Bag with the true grandfather of all high fantasy movies, or at least the ultra-violent ones. Before Game of Thrones, before The Witcher, there was one man, bigger than 5 combined and able to crush his enemies, see them driven before him, and listen to the lamentations of their women. His name was Arnold Schwarzenegger, and before he become a bona fide movie star, he took on a cult classic role in this week’s movie. No, the movie’s not what you’d call “good,” but it’s also doing more with what it has than a lot of similar movies of its time. Director John Milius didn’t have the resources to hire ILM or call up the artists behind Alien and Blade Runner - he had to find a way to make it all work. And even though there’s stretches where the movie’s laughable, there’s also some true badassery hidden within. Grab your broadsword and study the way of its steel as we talk about Conan the Barbarian this week on Macintosh & Maud Haven’t Seen What?!
