Has anyone seen this? Perhaps I shouldn't call it swords and sorcery since I don't recall seeing a single sword in evidence, and indeed most of the action takes place in a Neolithic culture rued over by an undying Witch Queen who feeds on the flesh and inner organs of her subjects, aided by her evil wolf headed beast men. I enjoyed it as I had never known it existed. It's poor in many respects but has some goodness I think you would all enjoy. It definitely evokes something like Fire and Ice or Frazetti images, and that in abundance. The Youtube version is almost unwatchable but I caught it by means of a free 30 day streaming trial on Full Moon through Amazon. I have written a full review at my blog!

I was about to say that you can watch it through Amazon Prime, then looked it up and was dismayed to find that it had been moved to whatever this Full Moon service is. It's frustrating that Amazon has started to do that more and more: make up pretend "channels" that require an extra subscription just to access content that was already available through Amazon Prime.
Anyway, I haven't watched this one in a few years, but it was on my regular rotation of bad sci-fi and fantasy for a while. Two thumbs up from me!

I agree, Starbeard- Amazon disappoints as to it's business model. However, it does have, to me, the better selection of classic and B movie horror and fantasy that I like. This film was unknown to me until very recently. Not high cinema but fun!

The description makes it sound amazing. High cinema, it ain't Just the same kind of fun you get from like Hawk the Slayer. A pretty huge rip-off of so many sources but it does have a good story, at least in my opinion. It also has some great camera work but that is marred by the weird haze. I think the haziness was deliberate and not all a product of deterioration of the film. Would have been great to see on a big screen!
