1.Xanadu [1980] starring: Olivia Newton-John, Gene Kelly, Michael Beck, James Sloyan, Dimitra Arliss directed by: Robert Greenwald June 28, 2004

OK, we can all agree that there's no relevant plot, the personages are almost nonexistent, but WHAT a visual and audio impact! IF you look at it as an astray piece of style, it embraces all of the, then future, 80's trends and fashions. from ONJ rollerskating outfit with the flirty miniskirt and leg warmers [so funny in the cartoon section of the movie] up to the 'ALL OVER THE WORLD' scene in a LA store with so many 'fab' fashion disasters. BAD hairdos, neon glowing clothes, dreadful makeup, and a corny pop fashion flavour that makes it all SO unforgetable and unforgivable... I give it 4 stars, due to the cool music [even if the sonny malone personage was the WORST casting ever] and MARVELLOUS screaming bad glam outfits throughout! ;)

3.Conan the Barbarian [1981] starring: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Cassandra Gaviola, Sven-Ole Thorsen, Sandahl Bergman, James Earl Jones directed by: John Milius August 25, 2003

Years after the brutal murder of his parents, Conan the Barbarian sets out on a perilous quest for vengeance on the evil Thulsa Doom. With his trusted companions, he has a series of marvelous adventures which culminate in the fulfillment of his long hoped for goal. A vigorous and bloody sword-and-sorcery epic featuring Schwarzenegger's breakthrough role. The amazing electrifying choral music of Basil Poledouris goes a long way in trying to convey the adventures and excitement of battles and conquests of the prehistoric age. In playing Conan, Arnold was fresh off his first documentary movie, where he won the Mr. Olympic title, so he was particularly pumped. All the cast members were fairly new to film, and it also had a fairly seventies ... Read More:

4.Schwarzenegger -- Special Edition 4-Disc Box Set [1985] starring: Arnold Schwarzenegger, James Belushi, Peter Boyle, Ed O'Ross, Brigitte Nielsen directed by: Paul Verhoeven, John Irvin, Walter Hill, Richard Fleischer October 10, 2005

In this Box set Raw Deal has the Aspect Ratio 2.35:1 Red Sonja has the Aspect Ratio 2.35:1 Red Heat has the Aspect Ratio 1.85:1 Total Recall has the Aspect Ratio 1.85:1 When you consider that some Retailers are selling it at £ 45 take my advice and buy it from Amazon Marketplace before it ends up being deleted. My only Complaint is that Red Heat/Total Recall has the aspect ratio 1.85:1 Anamorphic and not 2.35:1 which I prefer. Anyway its great Value and it comes in a very Classy Box - the image does not do it justice.

5.She [1982] starring: Sandahl Bergman, Quin Kessler, David Goss, Harrison Muller, Elena Wiedermann directed by: Avi Nesher August 15, 2003
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £4.79
"This has nothing to do with sense!" So says 'She' halfway through the movie, when faced with the irrefutable home-truth that walking through the poisonous 'forest of death' makes no sense. That kind of mindless response in the place of a decent explanation for the viewer sums up the attitude of the makers of "She". It's a typical low-budget, no-talent sci-fi/fantasy epic gone horribly wrong, and it's main selling point is probably it's campiness and ridiculous gaffs. The production is cheap and tatty in every corner, and it's made worse by the complete lack of visionary flair on the part of the director. The only 'good' scene in the movie is towards the end when 'She' fights the Norks while wearing a cool disguise(the rest of the film has her ... Read More:

* This comment may contain spoilers * Before Arnie became The Terminator he was Conan the Barbarian in this visually stunning fantasy film based on the books of Robert E. Howard. An endlessly influential film, withe recent films such as the Matrix and The Lord of the Rings Trilogy taking elements from it, a film with much greater depth than most give it credit for, clever, emotive, with a smart script, one of the best soundtracks of all time, strong performances and great action. Conan the Barbarian is an underrated classic, but one which all Arnie fans love, one which deserves to be recognised for what it is rather than criticising it as brainless violence. John Milius, director of Big Wednesday, writer of the Apocalypse Now screenplay and famous sections ... Read More:

Conan The Barbarian is probably my fave film. Since 2002, this film has been released on DVD 4 times, 2 of which were Special Editions, and now this Definitive Edition. All my life I had been waiting for a uncut version, but once again its the same old, same old - I'm not sure what the previous reviewer was on about concerning some cuts 'restored' but the fact is that like the previous DVD releases, some of the 'horse fall' scenes have been cut, mostly in the final battle sequence. Its particularly poxy because, like before, if you watch the Conan Unchained documentary on Disc 2, you will see one of the cut scenes shown ! (its the scene where Conan, and Rexor on a horse, charge each other, and Conan cuts at the legs of the horse - in the film, the actual fall sequence of the horse is cut, ... Read More:

9.Red Sonja [1985] (REGION 1) (NTSC) starring: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Brigitte Nielsen, Sandahl Bergman, Paul L. Smith, Ernie Reyes Jr. directed by: Richard Fleischer July 06, 2004
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £3.02
This is the one sword and sorcerery film that all the people I know have seen. I didn't see it until I got it for Christmas but within my circle of friends it is a cult classic (which is suprising considering they're mostly male and this is a girly movie). Centuries before the Spice girls Red sonja gave the world girl Power, and then some! Silly but enjoyable stuff.
