WHEN HIS PARENTS ARE SAVAGELY MURDERED, CONAN IS CAPTURED AS ACHILD AND AFTER FIFTEEN YEARS OF AGONY, FORGES A MAGNIFICENTBODY AND INDOMITABLE SPIRIT. ONCE FREE, HE EMBARKS UPON A QUEST FOR ULTIMATE POWER TO SLAY THE EVIL ARCH-VILLAIN THAT ENSLAVED HIM. FEATURES: SPECIAL EFFECTS AND MUCH MORE.Conan the Barbarian, the movie that turned Arnold Schwarzenegger into a global superstar, is a prime example of a match made in heaven. It's the movie that macho maverick writer-director John Milius was born to make, and Arnold was genetically engineered for his role as the muscle-bound, angst-ridden hero created in Robert E. Howard's pulp novels. Oliver Stone contributed to Milius's screenplay, and the production design by comic artist Ron Cobb represents a perfect cinematic realization of Howard's fantasy world. To avenge the ! murder of his parents, Conan tracks down the evil Thulsa Doom (James Earl Jones) with the help of Queen Valeria (played by buff B-movie vixen Sandahl Bergman) and Subotai the Mongol (Gerry Lopez). Aptly described by critic Roger Ebert as "the perfect fantasy for the alienated pre-adolescent," this blockbuster is just as enjoyable for adults who haven't lost their youthful imagination. --Jeff ShannonConan the Barbarian [DVD] (1982) Arnold Schwarzenegger; James Earl JonesConan the Barbarian, the movie that turned Arnold Schwarzenegger into a global superstar, is a prime example of a match made in heaven.

Rather than allowing this brutal fate to conquer him, Conan builds an incomparable body and an indomitable spiritâ€"both of which he needs when he suddenly finds himself a free man. Aided by his companions Subotai the Mongol (Gerry Lopez) and Valeria, Queen of Thieves (Sandahl Bergman), Conan sets out to solve the "riddle of steel," seize ultimate power and, fin! ally, take revenge on the warlord who killed his family.Conan the Barbarian, the movie that turned Arnold Schwarzenegger into a global superstar, is a prime example of a match made in heaven.

Basil Poledouris' exciting score to Arnold Schwarzenegger's 198! 2 barbarian epic. Conan The Barbarian was Arnold's big-screen breakthrough and was the film that launched his amazing film career, which eventually led the Austrian-born actor straight to the Governor's mansion! It also inspired the successful sequel, Conan The Destroyer and the semi-sequel, Red Sonja. 12 tracks. Warner Music. 2003.This early '80s sword-and-steroids epic by writer/director John Milius is notable for making a bankable action-star of Arnold Schwarzenegger and cementing the reputation of film composer Basil Poledouris (Robocop, Hunt For Red October, Free Willy, Starship Troopers). A dream assignment for a young composer eager to showcase the range his skills, the lusty Conan score hearkens back to the '30s heyday of Erich Wolfgang Korngold's unabashed Euro-classicism, but with enough modern rhythmic and percussive flourishes to satisfy the modern listener. Buyer beware--this music is not intended for rush hour commute listen! ing, and Amazon.com will not be held liable for the carnage su! ch expos ure might inspire. --Jerry McCulleyCONTAINS: CONAN THE BARBARIAN: AND CONAN THE DESTROYER.This item is in new and mint condition.
