I have a confession to make - I snuck in to see this movie in 1997, and I was terribly unhappy that I did not have any basis to demand my money back. It was that bad.
shareI've seen worse
It certainly wasn't that bad.
shareIt was pretty bad. It wasn't very Kull like, Sorbo was a bad bad choice.. They should have just threw this into an extra long "special" episode of Hercules The Legendary Journeys.. This is a major dissapointment to any fan of Robert E Howard and Conan.
shareA real Kull? was there a book or something? if so, i'd like to read it. Or was he a charictor on Conan? please explain caus i have no idea what your talkin bout, but would in fact like to.
shareKull was one of the several characters written by Robert E Howard, who also wrote Conan. Im not sure if any of the Kull material is in print, so it might be easier to try ebay or abebooks.com and look up Kull by Robert E Howard. There are a few older editions, like the Baen edition which is pretty nice. I would suggest reading all the materal by Howard, and ignoring any Conan novels written by anyone else, because they just ruined the mythos.

Man, I'm there with Bryanthemadposter: This film is on right now on ITV(UK). It's like watching motorway pile-up; I can barely tear my gaze away! This is SO bad! When affronted by films of this caliber, one is forced to ask the following questions: a)Who the hell 'green-lighted' this cr*p?(I want his/her name!), b)At which precise point did the production team think 'It's too late to stop this'? and c) If the money put into this abomination of celluloid was given to a third-world country, how many lives would it save?

I think it would of so much better if Sam Raimi was involved.
The gratest trick the devil ever played was convincing the world that he did not exist
Or perhaps if they altered storyline, actors, script... Come to think of it, what about everything?! Especially the AWFUL score. Once I'd tuned in (god I wish I hadnt!) and heard that trashy "rock" music blaring, a sense of impending doom struck into my very bones. Down with Kull the Conqueror! The only saving grace was the adverts in between (Hehe, watched this on ITV as well!).

I thought the was pretty ok, its just the script and the directing, let down the movie.

By the way I hate that swear on here , it lowers your post like I said, the Acting and directing was bad.

Although I do like this movie as it is I must agree that it would have been better if Sam Raimi had been involved but that's true or any movie.

Yes, but you see: fans of Robert E. Howard tend to treat his stuff as if it were Nobel-prize material. And really, it just isn't - and the fact that they keep insisting it were, doesn't help Howard, but actually harms them. It's kitsch as kitsch can - and every attempt to treat it in a too serious a manner ended up in ridicule in the long run. Just take a look at Arnie's Conan-movies; they've aged terribly.
In this respect Kull fared much, much better.
