Sure, the first CONAN has a giant snake scene but that's as close to a monster as I can remember being in it.
Meanwhile, CONAN THE DESTROYER has two scenes that should sell any monster kid on it: the hall of mirrors ape man fight and the Dagoth scene!
Sure, the first movie had boobs and a bit more blood and as much as I enjoy those things, I'm speaking purely as a monster fan here.
DESTROYER is pure camp and pure fun.
The first was written and directed by John Milus and Oliver Stone, which is all well and good, but DESTROYER was directed by Richard Fleischer, the son of Max Fleischer!! How cool is that!!? It's appropriate because the thing is a live action cartoon.
I just found out today that Dagoth was played by Andre the Giant and he was uncredited. They should have made another De Laurentiis production with a super-giant Dagoth vs. Kong!!
Anyone else here like DESTROYER better than the first CONAN? (To be fair, I like Conan O'Brien better than both.)
