Deathstalker II: Duel of the Titans

This is way funnier than the first one. But depending on your taste, you might not think this is funny. The two main actors really do a good job and as others have stated this is the best of the bunch (I actually bought the 4 movie collection of the series - if you want to call it that).

This is silly and has nudity and there is fighting. As with the first one, but with the added low level humor (that works most of the time I think), this has to be taken with a grain of salt

This movie stinks and it knows it!! That is what makes this movie so enjoyable to watch. A laugh riot throughout because of it's stupidity. Pokes great fun at all the sword and sorcery movies. It seems almost every video rental store has this film, so go rent it today! And don't forget to enjoy the credits, too!!

Deathstalker 2 is the second of a quad of Deathstalker movies. All four films have had the same executive producer, Roger Corman. If you are familiar with Corman's work you will know exactly what to expect. He is said to be the master of low-budget cinema. Just watch Deathstalker 2 and you'll see why. The whole point with Deathstalker 2 (for me anyway) is that it is lightweight, amusing and saucy. On the whole the action scenes involve plastic swords swinging wildly, obviously choreographed by a blind man, and punches missing their target by a good foot but still knocking over the person they were aimed at. The plot is interesting enough to make you want to keep watching and does not make the film seem overly long as a result. A high point for any red blooded B-Movie fan has to be the ladies. Monique Gabrielle, Toni Naples and a whole bunch of extras show some skin through the course of the film. Some might see this as unnecessary rubbish. Believe me, these are the high points of the film, enjoy.

O.K, so you are thinking, "a little bit crap then". But just hold on, try watching whilst a little drunk, or with a bunch of mates or very late at night when nothing else is on the tube. Only then will you get the joke. It's not supposed to be a documentary, it's just for laughs.The ladies are good looking, John Terlesky makes you smile and the action scenes are just down rite hilarious. If it appears in a video rental shops bargain sell-out section, buy it.

Scenes to watch out for include a scary wrestling match between Deathstalker and a huge woman who can only be described as terrifying. A freaky looking dwarf playing the guitar and an epileptic-fit inducing moment that gave me a headache (especially if you have the lights turned down).

This is easily the best of the Deathstalker movies. John Terlesky isn't the musclebound hulk that Rick Hill was, and certainly not the musclebound hulk in the Boris Vallejo painting they used for the poster, but he doesn't have to be. This is a Deathstalker who knows perfectly well that he's in a campy, B-grade sword-and-sorcery flick, and is determined to have as much fun with it as he can. He takes nothing seriously, and almost everything is done with a wink at the audience. He wonders aloud at one point where the cliche Spikey Trap O'Death is, and when the spikes immediately pop out of the walls he just rolls his eyes, says, "Son of a bitch!", and deals with it.

John Lazar as the villain Jarek knows it too. He's gleefully, manaically evil, but when he learns his adversary's moniker he can barely suppress the giggle as he repeats, incredulously, "Deathstalker?!"

Monique Gabrielle takes her parts seriously, and it's just as well. She's the one who's always in need of a rescue, and I suppose that *someone* has to put up a show of genuine peril. She also fills out admirably the part that's absolutely essential in films of this quality: she supplies the main set of on-screen boobs. It wouldn't be a proper B-grade sword-and-sorcery flick without them.

Sit back, have a beer or 5, and enjoy Deathstalker II. Laugh; you're supposed to. And stick around through the end credits for the outtakes. Those are funny too.

This is one of the great fantasy "B" flicks. It has some of the funniest one liners, delivered in clasic "B" movie style. There's plenty of action and lots of laughs to be had watching this one. Besides the princess is cute and you have to love the villians style. If you're looking for perhaps one of the best low grade fantasy films ever produced than this would definitely be the one to watch. It rocks!
