    Frank Langella is absolutely magnificent. He doesn't play it for camp, he goes straight on full villain, turning Skeletor from a cartoon joke into a truly terrifying villain and you can tell he's loving it. Also for 1987, that is a DAMN good makeup job and he spoke on how it helped him vanish into the role.
    "Give us one more chance..."
    "I am not in a giving vein this day."

    I have NO SHAME to say that I love this movie because even though it shouldn't work and almost everything goes, you still can't help but watch it and smile and laugh.
    And Langella as skelletor is frickimg awesome.
    You can tell frank enjoyed it 😊😊😊😊

      Agree. It's a movie made with enough competence that you can like it, and enough incompetence that you can love it. And I love it....even got myself a stainless steel & bronze full size replica power sword a couple of years ago....probably not my wisest purchase but it's mine and it's awesome!

    Oh on the bit of the kid winning the contest, I think rules said it had to be non-speaking as one line qualified him for a SAG card and Cannon didn't want to pay extra cost on that.

    Fun facts that you may not know:
    Billy Barty: he actor that played Gwildor (sp?) also played the old wizard High Aldwin in Willow, Screwball in one of my favorite Tom Cruise movies Legend, and was Noodles the camera man in one of my All-Time Favorite Top 10 movies, UHF.
    The same actor that plays the cop was also Principal Strickland in the Back to the Future films and the captain in Top Gun.

  • @mrbubbles8743

    The first movie I watched as a kid that I would fast forward the end credits to see the after movie scene of skeletor actually still being alive.

    • @danielwilliamson6180
      @danielwilliamson6180 2 года назад +1

      Here's trivia about the after credits scene: The after credits scene which Skeletor is in the chasm beneath Castle Grayskull was unscripted and it was added in by director Gary Goddard. Gary Goddard instructed BOSS Studios to prepare a tank of pink liquid and Frank Langella in makeup and costume was brought over to the tank of pink liquid. Gary Goddard told Frank Langella what he was to do and that he was to get in it and when the camera started rolling, he was to surface, look back at the camera and say the line "I'll Be Back!". Frank Langella agreed to do it and it was done in 1 take and that take was used in the movie.

    I do have to say that the director of the film tried his best to make a good film, but Cannon shot him in the foot every step of the way, to the point that he had to pay for the final sword fight out of his own pocket.

I chose a log to stand and take a leak off and realized a damn rattlesnake was right underneath and this kid me and my road dawg met went in on the thing with said log and proceeded to cut it up with my knife, still upset I left the rattle(d'Oh!), Suddenly they ditched us and eventually we fell asleep where I swear I saw a mountain lion cruising directly across from our hill at like 2am.
