another for one of my favorite lists

1980’s Sword and Sorcery, ranked

I know I shouldn’t include Korgoth here but fuck it, Korgoth rules. Still need to watch: Ironmaster (1983) Ator 2 - The Blade Master (1982) Thor the Conqueror (1983) Hearts and Armor (1983)

#Watched Deathstalker IV: Match of Titans (1991) - “Match of Titans”? More like “Match of Titties”. Wokka wokka.

The original Deathstalker, Rick Hill, is back! It’s dumb and cheap, but I love a tournament movie and this has enough ponderous fighting and Maria Ford and boobs to make the time fly.

Cheap ass action movies I’ve watched in the last month filmed in Bulgaria:

Toxic Avenger 2024
Boyka: Undisputed
Bridge of Dragons
Command Performance
Deathstalker IV

(oh shit, it wasn’t three, it’s actually five!)

Honestly, none of the rest of them had any kind of continuing plots, and they all reused footage, so it’s almost a metaphysical question.

Got our tix for the new Deathstalker on Friday with live Kostanski Q&A and Bernhardt over streaming.

People, if this is playing near you and you can, GO, support this!!! Kostanski is a mad genius and there is no movie this year I am more excited for.

I have now watched three shitty movies filmed in Bulgaria in like three weeks. Invariably after the lead actors’ names in the credits all the names start popping up with an “-ov” or an “-iev” and I’m like “oh no, I’m back in fucking Bulgaria”
