Kull the Conqueror
So B and I ended up watching this almost entirely forgettable swords-and-sorcery movie last night which rejoiced in the name of Kull the Conqueror. It is, apparently, an adaptation of a Robert E. Howard Conan book but with the hero replaced by Kull, much as the first Conan movie is a reworking of a Kull novel (I hope everyone is still following).
It all proceeded much as you would expect with Kevin Sorbo never knowingly over-dressed* throughout and a truly spectacular array of terrible wigs. Then halfway through the first act up pops Douglas Henshall from Primeval
in a wig.
Getting his just deserts
Anyway, just to note that I spent a lot of yesterday evening giggling at material which I think was intended to be entirely serious.
* though, it must be said, it wins points, as a movie, for being clearly far more interested in getting the leading man's kit off than the leading lady's.
