- Zula was NOT androgenous!! Come on!
I must ask this: WHY the HECK is Grace Jones described as "androgynous" in the review for this film? Oh because 1. She can defend herself. 2. She's a dark skinned black woman with an African name. 3. She enjoys beating people's...uh behinds.

I personally thought she was very feminine. And some people need to check themselves and think long and hard about what it is to be "feminine." Oh how I love this country.

Anyway, I love Conan in this film. Granted he's not so brooding and serious in this one but I like seeing another side of him. And I still think he's hardcore. Arnold was awesome in this role. This movie was great when I was small and still is.

- Starts with a c ends with a p, 2 guesses and it isn't 'carp'
I am so sorry I wasted time watching this. Dumb characters, bad acting....and if the girl doesn't stop screaming, I am going to hurl.

- great escapism fun
back when i was like 12, this was my favorite film. i would watch it over and over and over again. it helped my imagination soar. ofcourse now, looking back, i see how much of a B-movie it really is. but it was still fun escapism when i was younger.

- Conan, the Immortal God
The continuation of "Conan the Barbarian" was exactly what I had hoped for. Conan must escort the evil Queen Taramis' princess to find a treasure. If he returns the girl in one peace, then his beloved Valeria will be brought back to life. That plotline is adorable and Conan shows how much he loves the girl of his dreams. Accompanying Conan to the glass castle, is the forever intimidating Grace Jones and Wilt Chamberlain. Considering this epic picture is PG, the violence level is extremely high. I was flabbergasted with the decapitation and ugliness of the monsters. The fight in the mirrors reminded me of Bruce Lee vs. The Claw Man from "Enter the Dragon". It was that immaculate! By the way, Mako returned as the funny little wizard and he is commendable! The best sword-and-sorcery film ever made and I'm still praying to the gods for Hollywood to make another Conan masterpiece.

- Good sequel
After the succesful Conan The Barbarian the inevitable sequel took part 2 years after the first.

This time Conan the Cimmerian(Schwarzenegger) must find with the help of a virgin princess a jewel that leads to the horn of a god Dagoth which a evil queen(Douglas) needs to give to their kingdom all the power of the world.

Followed by the sorcerer of the first film(Mako) by a cure thief(Lester) and a agile warrior(Jones) they must face all the dangers of such a risky mission.

With dign special and visual effects and the final monster made by the creator of ET the film has a whole dign production better than italian imitations(Ator) or cheesy and camp productions(Red Sonja,Barbarian Queen) and at least is entertaining and pleased to watch.
