Synopsis
Meant to be a whimsical sword-and-sorcery film about a prince out to save his princess from the jaws of the Beast, Krull has enough scenes borrowed from blockbuster predecessors (Raiders of the Lost Ark, E.T., Robin Hood, Star Wars) and is gentle enough to be rather derivative, ordinary fare. Prince Colwyn (Ken Marshall) has inherited a kingdom under siege by the evil Beast, and not only has to rid the land of the monster, but he has to rescue his bride Lyssa (Lysette Anthony) from the Beast's clutches as well. In his magical land, horses can sometimes fly, medieval castles can harbor weapons that light up, and before he can defeat the Beast, the prince has to get his hands on the glaive (French for "double-edged sword"), a razor-sharp, magical weapon capable of killing the monster. One of the more notable aspects of Krull is that a 30-year old Liam Neeson plays the bit part of Kegan, in only his third full-length feature film. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

Very low budget
Liam Neeson and Robbie Coltrane forever ago...
November 20, 2015Ah, Krull. Such an... um... "classic"? The film looks its era, but is still a fun time. If you watch it for no other reason, do so to catch Neeson and Coltrane. I bet you forgot (or didn't even know) they were in it.

Classic 80s Cheese
August 5, 2015Looking for a great 80s sci-fi/fantasy movie to waste a couple of hours? Look no further than Krull. The film offers everything there is to love about this type film: tons of great practical effects, hammy acting, a stunning score, and grand adventure. Krull is a fun movie, and is recommended for fans of 80s flicks. The films looks great on Blu-ray, but unfortunately contains no bonus material.

Cheesy '80s Sci-Fi....what's not to like?
April 9, 2015I was shopping the store looking for something different. I called a friend and told him I couldn't find anything, and he mentioned he'd just bought this on Blu from the $7.99 bin. That's all I had to hear. I remember bits of it from my youth but it was just the sort of different thing I was looking for. If you're feeling unsure of what to watch, go back to the past and pick something like this out. It's a nice break from all of the CGI garbage we're being forced to watch these days.

Great movie
March 20, 2015Love this movie as a kid, and the blu ray is totally worth the price. Picture is not the greatest but with most films like this you really can't expect much.

I am a fan of fantasy films but this was too low budget even for me.
