Howard's tale of a sword-swinging warrior cleaning up corruption in the mythical kingdom of Valusia. His mission wins him enemies among the nobles, who plot his death and entrap him in a marriage to a vicious 3,000-year-sorceress. Kull begins a life-or-death quest to capture the Breath of Valka and bring peace and justice to Valusia--and capture the heart of a beautiful slave girl. [More]

Reviews for Kull the Conqueror
not nearly as painful to sit through as expected ... there's enough here to kill 90 minutes without the trade-off of losing too many brain cells
Yikes. Cribbed dialogue from The Empire Strikes Back is this film's only attempt at quality, and even that falls flat.
A transparent attempt to cash in on the success of TV's Hercules and Xena
Just another routine sword-and-sandals action yarn, of the kind that fell out of fashion some years ago.
