Conan the Barbarian

In the mood for myths and legends? Butter the popcorn! “Conan the Barbarian” fills the bill.
Earlier in the week I finished reading: Bull From the Sea by Mary Renault and wanted more. Time for Conan. The movie has many of the characters found in the book: warrior hero, fabulous fair haired chick in chain-maille, sorceress/wizard types, snakes lurking in dark places... Oh! and the beef cake! Thanks Arnold...
What fun for a Winter weekend: Conan the Barbarian with Arnold Schwarzenegger, as Conan, James Earl Jones as Thulsa Doom (the bad guy) and Sandahl Bergman as Valeria
