some film be just plain silly beyond explanation . this be one of them . word can not do justice to the wooden acting and the stupid plotline and and the ever predictable outcome . about the only thing that make this film halfway worth watch be the scantily clad woman ( and the mute guy for you lady ) in it . the leader of the warrior woman and valeria be quite appeal to the eye . but that about all this movie have go for it . some silliness in point represent one scene and when they start to journey to the lair of the dark one and they be walk away from a supposedly destroyed land . but we clearly see a 1980 new york behind them . about 2/3rds of this movie look like it be film in a high school basement . the deadly sock puppet look about as scary a a sesame street monster . i have to agree with latronic in that many 1950 trash b movie do a good job than this . about the only one i can think of that do not be teenager from out space .
