In the wake of Conan, multiplexes and late night cable were forever flooded with fantastic tales and loin-clothed heroes. But when it comes to massive amounts of nudity, violent pillaging, epic swordplay and pig-faced monsters, this Roger Corman-produced knockoff knew how to spin low budget gold, spawning countless adolescent fantasies, three sequels and the career of young Hollywood starlet Lana Clarkson. Sent on a perilous expedition to save the world and recapture the throne from an evil wizard, the finely chiseled Rick Hill is Deathstalker, a Boris Vallejo painting come-to-life, short on words but skilled with a blade. It’s a fight to the death as our warrior king battles faceless hordes to save a world of bikini-clad vixens!
