I collected this on dvd - I remember a scene from the movie where he bangs a witch and almost gets killed - he then exclaims "CROM!" ... or translated "WTF!"

"Crom, grant me revenge. If you cannot do this, then the hell with you."
"Crush enemies."
1982 was a spectacular year for genre movie's and tv shows, and music ahh the 80's i miss it.
I read all the Robert E. Howard books before watching it at the theater . I was a bit disappointed at the plot , since parts were took from some of his books , the movie suffered from a boring storyline even though it started good .. Milius shouldnt had directed this movie , and should had stayed a writer . They said Arnie was born to play Conan ,and thats true . Too bad the second one was tacky an rated PG-13 .
81 better? you crazy
Blade Runner, Conan, Wrath of Khan, Swamp Thing it was good for its time, 48 Hours,The Thing, ET, Tron even though I haven't seen it yet, Firefox awesome Clint flick, Creepshow, Poltergeist and I'm sure there's more
I was already an Arnie fan from his bodybuilding career and a huge Conan fan back then. I used to love The Savage Sword of Conan, the black and white magazine with the awesome covers and great pin-ups inside. Still have a bunch of them in my collection
I take it back maybe 81 was just as good. Looking at the 81 slate is pretty awesome indeed
This is one of my all-time favorite character movies. Conan goes through one of the most trying and brutal protagonist journey's of any film and it has a very satisfying conclusion. Still one of my favorites, and it hasn't suffered with time, not in my opinion anyway. Yeah 1977-1987 is really probably the most important 10 year stretch in movie history. Everything since then has been mostly an attempt to recapture or rethink the movies in that span.
I listen to the soundtrack once a year or more.
