I knew it had Garey Busey and Mr. T, but now that I know it has the barbarian brothers, I just gotta see it. Funny story. Once my drummer and I were talking movies and somehow Taxi Driver came up and we were both like "yeah, that's a really good movie." Then a few seconds of silence went by and he said "Doesn't Taxi Driver have Mr. T in it?" "No, Luke, that's D.C. Cab." I think that's the definitive story to describe him, that he thinks D.C. Cab is high quality cinema.

I think he's attempting re-entry, sir. http://www.eccentric-cinema.com/ Cole's Comics: All About Jack Cole http://colescomics.blogspot.com/

It's funny how The Sword and the Sorcerer was kind of a B picture but overcame its faults to the point where it almost deserves to be in the same category with the more expensive but overblown Conan the Barbarian and Dragonslayer. But that's another story. I loved the music for the rather silly "Hawk the Slayer" but hated the similar disco style music for Lady Hawk. It completely killed the medieval mood instantly. The pretty awful Ator ended with a sappy screamy love ballad that is burned into my poor brain forever. I no longer have my VHS tape so I can celebrate it's sublime awfulness, and it isn't on Youtube. One of the great awful love ballads of all time.

I was reading about the tragic events surrounding the death of Lana Clarkson, and it made me wonder if anybody ever saw the "Lana Unleashed" video she did to showcase her acting?

That might be a strange word to use for a spear and sandal film, except that it's about the "rape scene." Since it's done by the hero of the story (!), is the "degree" of rape something that can be argued (as in High Plains Drifter and Waterhole # 3), or is it pictured as a "clear-cut" one?
