Audience Member This film checks a lot of boxes for a typical 80s low budget Fantasy/Adventure/Action/Sci-Fi film. It has a "will they or won't they" romance with the lead characters, the heroine was kidnapped at least once, an archer sidekick that's also an effeminate monotone elf, a comic relief dwarf played by Peter O'Farrell, a slow-witted giant that's just a tall actor, a villain that wants to rule the world/universe and a budget that's one tenth of what the script calls for. The only reason to watch this movie would be to make fun it and from that standpoint, it's a success. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member why are they driving cars with right side steering wheels meant to drive on left side of roads? filmed in n.z., australia? the voices seemed dubbed. just about the lowest production values possible. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member Watched the RiffTrax version (on Amazon Prime), which was stellar. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Crap, but fun crap. Overall campy with a decent cast and dumb humor, which to me, makes the film entertaining. Plot isn't too original, and the characters stink, and there are some pretty crazy moments. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member Prisoners of the Lost Universe is another one of those bad movies that's just as bad as you've heard it to be. Sure there are plenty of laugh out loud moments, but overall, it's a pretty boring affair. I think I fell asleep on it a couple of times while watching it, which isn't a good thing. It does have some redeeming quality to it. First of all, it has John Saxon as the comically-evil villain, who's out to sleep with every woman he comes into contact with. It also has some questionable score and sound effects choices in it, the latter of which would have been more befitting for a Looney Tunes short. If you want to watch this for enjoyment puproses, then I recommend seeing the Rifftrax version which is much better than just the film alone. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Three people are transported by a scientist's new material transmitter invention into a world much like medieval times in another dimension. A bit of a mess. Kay Lenz solid as always but no saving grace here. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews
