One of the movies that fascinated and also hunted my younger self. Pretty simple sets are used to tell an efficient story. Underrated.

Classic Sword and Sorcery film. If you like the genre, this movie is essential.

So bad that it's good. An 80s classic action flick. Cheesy but enjoyable.

It’s pretty bad but it a good way. Watch with friends.

OK, this is not a great movie but it's an entertaining 'swords and sorcerers' travel down memory lane. Man-eating bird people!

So very cool when you're seven... Imagine seeing through the eyes and controlling your bird, or panther

An incredibly cheap looking movie that has such a confounding plot. Acting is terrible and so many animals must have been harmed making it.

Been awhile since I last saw it, but it's 80's barbaric cheese at its best. Definitely watch with friends and maybe beer and snacks
