THE SWORD AND THE SORCERER 2 coming soon!

aka TALES OF AN (THE?) ANCIENT EMPIRE

Starring Lee Horsley, Christopher Lambert, Kevin Sorbo and Yancy Butler!

Filming is about to begin in Argentina.

The director promises us the "ultimate anti-Lord of the Rings. It's got a sexy sorceress; hordes of demonic vampires; a giant serpent; sea pirates; nasty sword, axe, and spear fights; and gore and nudity galore."

"It's going to be a sight to see Highlander, Hercules, and Witchblade marching shoulder to shoulder into desperate battle, swords and axes hacking away. There will be blood ... and heads, and arms ... and vampire hearts!"

Well its got two components to ensure b-movie greatness...

I didnt mind Sorbo as Kull, thought he was pretty good, but needed to shed his cheesy TV Hercules baggage, which at that point he and the producers thought would insure more boxoffice revenue, they were wrong. He of course later(always after the fact) regretted the movie not being rated R and loved the original script which I thought was excellent. He's a big fan of the first CONAN movie btw.

This sounds surely a B-movie, but what the hell, I loved all those B-movies from the 80's, and it may be the closest to a 80's like CONAN III we may come across.

*On a more worthy note, why the fuck is Pyun still pushing ahead, while Milius is such a sloth? He can just make some independent ancient world picture still using his CONAN III or Norseman scripts, fucking so damn lazy he is, its sad.

Currently filming. Some pics and info:

Well, I just hope, from that fencing guard position he doesn't end beating people's face with the elbow, like the sword was only atrezzo Some decapitations would be nice, please And nothing about CGI guts, c'mon, go and buy some real shit in the butcher's shop, just like the old days
