      Audience Member This movie is so bad, it's funny. The MST3K version is an improvement. Some of us that have worked at the renaissance faire at Black Point Forest will remember it's filming. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Quest of the Delta Knights certainly has one thing going for it: it has David Warner, Olivia Hussey and a beautiful buxom lady in it, and that's about it. It's one of those latter day epics adventures, in the vein of something like Willow or Dungeons & Dragons, or maybe even Eragon, but it's so very boring by comparison. It certainly looks the part of what it's supposed to be, but none of it is really all that intriguing. The best thing about it though is that it was featured on an episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000, which readers of my reviews will no doubt realize that I'm a big fan of. There's not much else to say about it really. Mostly skippable, except for the reasons that I previously mentioned. Boring and not very entertaining. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Cheap and uninteresting, but humorous even without the MST3K commentary. The characters aren't too bad but the story doesn't go far and doesn't make too much sense. Nothing too interesting about the film and some of the camera angles were bad. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member It felt like they tried here and this was a million miles ahead of most productions featured on MST3K just for that reason. Still, it didn't turn out very well. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member CULT MOVIE MONTH REVIEW #:037 QUEST OF THE DELTA KNIGHTS/ QUEST FOR THE DELTA KNIGHTS [1993]:this straight to video fantasy films biggest claim to fame was that it was one of a few movies made in the 1990's to be lampooned by the cult T.V show Mystery Science Theatre 3000 (MST3K). QUEST OF THE DELTA KNIGHTS or the 2004 DVD Australasian Title QUEST FOR THE DELTA KNIGHTS is defiantly bad. Heck it wouldn't have been on MST3K otherwise, this tacky fantasy epic sees a young boy , his master, a young artist and an ex-prostitute turned princess ( I know for a family film of all things) trying to locate the lost storehouse of Ancient Greek Scientist Archimedes in the middle ages, while a lame villainous Lord tries to stop them. This film is goofy, lame, cheesy, and flat in parts, and above all below average which is why it gets 50% from me. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member This film is so incredibly camp it's an absolute must-watch, with one caveat - you have to watch the film in its respective 1998 episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000. With a Jekyll/Hyde single protagonist / antagonist casting of the otherwise respectable David Warner (and Doc Oc as the hapless Merlin character) this film is at once both a must-watch and an absolutely cringeworthy-yet-deliciously ironic slice of low budget British 1990s filmmaking. A read of the relevant MST3K Wikipedia entry for this film is also essential in order to truly understand how spellbinding this film is. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quest_of_the_Delta_Knights Overlook it at your peril!
