Umm, I believe that 'Kalidor' is a typo


Obviously, the studio responsible for releasing this made a goof, or they simply could not afford to pay for the name "Conan", because that was freakin Conan the Cimmerian. Yeah, that's right Sam, Conan the Barbarian, not Kalidor.

Gengis Kahn, was named Techjumin before he became the warlord king.
when Conan finally became a king by his own hand- he took the nobel title of Kalidor.

Kalidor was an alias Conan went around under... I know this post is like two years old, but yeh, there ya go. That was Conan.

The trivia sort of explains this...

I seem to recall that they decided to down-play the Conan/Kalidor roll, as it would have diminished the Character of Red Sonja and it would have become another Conan movie, which wasn't the aim.

(But in my opinion, would have been much better if it was!)

Uh.. Conan the Barbarian isn't Conan the Cimmerian. The former is the wimp cooked up for the movies, the latter is a hard-ass more macho than all of Arnold's movies combined.
