Krull - Good Bad Flicks 

As well as the nostalgic joy of (SPOILER ALERT!) that catchy "Nestle Alpine White" commercial jingle at 5:12, which I recall someone aptly describing it as "a Calvin Klein ad for candy bars set to the best single Roxette never recorded."

I couldn't agree more with this comment. Same here.

Same

yep

Same. U named them all. Also not same genre water ship down

Same dude!!!

Oh, I believe Krull is a great fantasy movie. It has its flaws, but then so does Star Wars. And it gets the essence of a good fantasy story down pat, unlike Disney Star Wars.

+LetsPlayPC :)

Agreed, that was kickass. You, us, and Faith No More.

Could have gone for the obvious "Labyrinth" reference, but he went for Nestle instead. Well played.

I totally forgot about that candy bar. Shame on me.That scene made my life. Dammit! Now I want one. They don't make those anymore, do they?

I remember that add all too well. Sometimes I still catch myself humming it. It's very catchy.

Firemares are things of folklore were I am from probably alot of other places as well

Cracked the fuck up

It's funny because every time I see Lysette Anthony I feel like eating something :)

Thanks!

Coffee out the nose, funny.

GoodBadFlicks what commercial was that?

I read this before it happened but was still completely unprepared. Bravo

It's been twenty or some years since I'd heard the "Nestlé Rock Ballad".

Agreed!

Cosigned. Fucking awesome film, and great cast too.

Modern sci-fi meets old-style fantasy, you might say, and for fans of one or both genres, it's a great treat.

Bob Drummond thank you! I was very happy with how that turned out :)

Seriously. The most solid 80s pull. Got a verbal "Oh shit".

DJ Newt Indeed!

DJ Newt this

And a semi awesome board game!

Definitely a excellent film!

@@brainspider you have got to be fucking joking!! You must be 7 years old?

It has flaws but its more inventive than many sci-fi fantasy movies

Well said :)

Hey, A.O.C, i'm going to as a "What If" question for you. What could of made this movie better, in your opinion?

Yeah man, it scared me as kid too! Really good though overall IMO, lots of cool stuff going on..

blvp2145 ... You didn't get an answer because of your poorly written question.

Melvin Gehteuchdochnixan bit of a fat finger thing going on?

Idk... my father took me to see it when I was 6 - for some reason this was one of the rare western movies we got to see in eastern germany. I had horrible nightmares afterwards, exclusively about the scene were the magic weapon is pulled from the lava by bare hand.

The giant spider gave me nightmares back in the 80's.

***** This movie is so full of grand ideas, from back in a time when we could have bigger budget films that could also be experimental.

"Two? I can't do two!"

NO DOUBT 😂😂😂 Aladdins Castle ❤

Way too ypung for going to arcades and especially a krull themed game ... was it worth it??

It was an Atari 2600 game and was near ET level of suckiness.

Same…so damn many.

I bought one of the krull arcade games a while back, lots better than the movie. 2 joysticks, like robotron, rescue the princess 👍

crap review...says female lead has a deep voice...dosnt mention how they fucked this char by having her voice dubbed by an actress 20 years older..a prob the most famous fact about this film.

@@autopartsmonkey7992 Try watching the whole review before bitching!

@@Danko_Sekulic no...it ducked to bad..if he got to it at some point. Then it really sucked at timing and paceing

Yuri Nate Thanks!

The throwing weapon from Beastmaster was cool too.

MARSHOMEWORLD ... You tried to write intelligently, and almost succeeded. It's strange that you have not looked at your comment in three years and thought to yourself, 'Geez, I sure screwed that up.' Then, all you needed to do to correct it is edit out the word "being" and then zip out the C in the misspelling of SORCERER. Those tiny changes would give your statement credibility.

@@JW...-oj5iw You're correcting a three year old comment? Why would they have come back to it in those years? The first response to it, bar a few likes, was two days before yours. For all you know they got hit by a bus the day after they typed it.

@@JW...-oj5iw are you the comic book guy from the Simpsons?

@@carpetfluff35its probably ocd with a smidge of ADHD that compels him.

Thanks! I love the movie and its a bummer it didn't go over so well when it was first released. They had tons of unique ideas and it would have been great to have more movies in that universe.

+GoodBadFlicks I completely agree. Plus, this movie was made in the 80's and gives it that distinct 80's feel which for me, just makes a movie like this that much better. 80's films just had a certain tone about them that has always tugged at my nostalgia strings.

they may remake this they have everything eles

I absolutely hated this movie. Krull stinks of a paint-by-numbers attempt to copy a new trend with no idea what made it successful in the first place. Then spend a third of your budget on marketing and walk away. Forget about a remake or sequel. We already have a better version of this story: Samurai Jack.

Grizabeebles How is Samurai Jack, the same story as Krull? No time travel in Jack. No glave in Jack. Jack is alone, aside from a few team ups, no group. Etc.

EmilyGreene1984 the movie was just overflowing with new and cool concepts

I continue to be proud of that gag :)

Agreed 😂

You know my name. thank you! Glad you enjoyed it

:)

If they were to do a remake, Keep the story as is, make the slayers more bad ass... and keep the Glaive until the later part of the film so that they don't end up wasting the best weapon for most of the movie!!! Yes it has its tropes, but dear god what movie doesn't... When people moan about the predictable plot it annoys me as almost every movie is predictable now... Every Genre has been done to death!!! Its not about what tropes are used but how effectively you use them... For its time, KRULL was a good film, sadly the tropes were not utilised very well but it is no worse than many others that came out at the time that fared far better!!! To name a few that get more praise than they deserve, Halloween, A Nightmare on Elm Street, Death Wish, ANY Dirty Harry Movie... All these films are hailed as Classics, yet all had ONE idea they used OVER and OVER and OVER AGAIN! No one complains about these trope fests... Even though the same tropes are in all the flaming remakes as well!!!

The beast must have tentacles then. I've seen it in anime.

The beast

Same here!! My boomerang was green foam. I then made all my glaives out of cardboard and my dad's electrical tape.

GazFunkstar Thank you and thanks for the sub! :)

Lemunt Picard Thank you!

Which was made in my...on my island, where i live...Berrrrrrrmuda.

Thanks!

I didn't even know they wanted to remake this. I hope not.. I do like his idea for a sequel. Krull was a movie I saw as a kid and no one believed me this was a real movie..

I Had a crush on her too. She was also in the Bryan Adams videos Summer of 69,Heaven and Run to You who had a crush on Bryan in the videos back in 1985.

That's actually Jesus

Well, Randy is the Lorde....

That may have been a Xena/ Batman homage.

actually yellow its ahomage to this movie and a stab at the matrix

"Creme Fraiche", LA - la - la - laaaa......

To be fair, the slayers' armor was hella impractical for any sort of movement. But you 'could' explain it as being necessary to allow the alien worm thing inside to manage bipedal movement and tool use.

PABLO ARVELO hehehe

I miss Alpine White bars....

+lordofdarkdudes Damn right, I'm waiting for my Renaissance action movie that's not the Three Musketeers.

Thank you! I am still very happy with that one. :)
