    "Between the time when the oceans drank Atlantis, and the rise of the sons of Aryas, there was an age undreamed of. And onto this, Conan, destined to wear the jeweled crown of Aquilonia upon a troubled brow. It is I, his chronicler, who alone can tell thee of his saga. Let me tell you of the days of high adventure!"

      My father recorded me this movie back in the '90 on a VHS, but he cut off the sex scenes with the witch and Valeria, for I was only a child. As I was 20 I went back to watch that tape, and I noticed something was "missing"; After having dowloaded the full version I realized whats it was😂

Also, fun fact: Marvel Comics published the ''Savage Sword of Conan'' comics back in the 70's who were so successful and made Conan more popular then before. Without the success of these comics, this movie wouldn't have been made.

    3 - a yet, still simple black blackgroung on how it shows that the making quality of the sword will forge the adventurer a lone wolf ...
