I wanted to finally watch this film because I remember my brother liking this when we were younger. It was definitely a movie from the 80s, I will say that. Not bad, just a product of its time.

One of my favourite 80's action, fantasy, light horror films. The cast are excellent, especially the always reliable Sands and Grant as the two leads. Great casting choices. It wasn't very well received critically at the time (to say the least) but personally I loved this slightly camp b-movie fantasy horror which has some funny lines and lots of memorable moments. Wore out my old VHS tape back in the day I watched it so often and rebought it as soon I could on DVD. An 80's cult classic in my book.
