I was a bit of a fan of the sword and sorcery genre when i was young... but never got round to watching Hawk, The Slayer... until last night. Even some of the better films in the genre are shoddy at best, but this is beyond shoddy. From the cheesy synthesiser soundtrack that wants to be War of the Worlds, the lazy assembling of 'the team' through meditative witchery, the non-existent fight choreography which is just quick editing and little actual fighting... to the inexplicable return of the witch at the end armed with sh!t loads of silly string which somehow incapacitates all the baddies by hitting just one of them. Beastmaster, in comparison, is worthy of several Oscars. 1/10 (for Roy Kennear's bit part)
