Non-Cannon ~ Episode 3 - The Sword & The Sorcerer (1982)



This movie was a bit out of the norm for what we usually do. Normally we focus on Cannon and Cannon-like films, but Cannon didn't put out many Fantasy films. That said, the end result isn't too far off from what they would put out.

Released in 1982, this film was a surprising success considering its tiny budget. Audiences of the time were really hungry for genre movies, and this fit the bill. The Star Wars effect was still working for Fantasy and Sci-Fi films.

Unfortunately, as good a try as it is at a sword and sorcery flick, it doesn't quite come together at the end. To see what we thought, watch the episode above.
