This low-budget fantasy tried to take advantage of the public's brief love affair with sword-and-sorcery movies. The special effects were tacky, the acting ordinary, and the script almost nonexistent, but there were a passel of semi-clad beauties and a number of clanging sword battles. Deathstalker (Richard Hill) is a warrior looking for new lands to conquer, new women to ravage, and new excitement to stir his blood. Codille (Barbi Benton) is the daughter of King Tulak (George Sorvic). She's currently in the slimy hands of wizard Munkar (Bernard Erhard). Deathstalker has no particular love for Codille or anyone else, but he has heard that Munkar possesses an amulet that can give him magical powers. The movie looks as though it was shot on a budget somewhat smaller than the local six o'clock newscast. leave a comment
