A prince and a fellowship of companions set out to rescue his bride from a fortress of alien invaders who have arrived on their home planet, Krull.

There is a universe where Krull became a huge franchise and Star Wars was the derivative B movie.
Star Wars was a derivative B movie, but they accidentally had a really good editor.
And then JJ Abram made a sequel to the original Krull Trilogy.
It’s a fun movie, and the musical score is kind of impressive in one very specific way. Do you like musical flourishes? They put flourishes in your flourishes so that you can flourish while you flourish. Er… The score is very unusual, which makes it kind of fun.
The Glaive really should have become every bit as iconic as lightsabers and bat’leths.
I disagree, just because the name makes people confused about the real (and really cool) polearm: the glaive.
No, because this movie, which I adored at six years old, is a fucking terrible movie whereas SW is not.
The movie may be terrible, but The Glaive is the height of cool movie weapons! “Magic Laser Death Frisbee” is cool enough to be the BFG-level weapon in a classic FPS.
Whoa, awesome!
Loved it as a kid, not sure if I willing to watch it again.
It’s still great, just for different reasons.

“I SEEK THE WIDOW!”
Great movie when I saw it as a kid, not so much years later as an adult 😅
Was this really a B movie? IIRC, it had a wide theatrical release and even its own game on Atari. And while cheesey, the effects were pretty much up to the standard of their time.
I remember there being a Krull arcade game that came out before the movie. It was part of the promotion. Gonna have to watch it again
ikr that’s like saying Bloodsport or Flash Gordon are B-movies.
wait… are they?!?
All I have to say about this movie after watching it as an adult is: “They fucking fly??!!”.
Saw this in the theater.
Hey it’s the thing from the dnd thing with the Hello From the Magic Tavern people and Anthony Burch!
Very early Liam Neeson, and I remember seeing Alun Armstrong a couple years earlier on stage in Nicholas Nickleby. Thought the movie was a bit naff, but I was there for Alun and Lysette Anthony, an early crush…
C’mon, this is a b-plus movie at least :)
I had the board game of it lol
Didn’t they already remake this one with Kevin Sorbo?
You are thinking of Kull The Conqueror, another barbarian movie based on a Robert E. Howard character.
