Conan the Destroyer (โคนัน ยอดคนแดนเถื่อน ภาค 2)

A slight improvement over the first one, perhaps...

Classic, mysterious, fantastic, adventurous. Grace Jones looks bizarre and scary enough to make small children cry in this one. But the ensemble is great, and although it doesn't have the eerie mystery of the first Conan the Barbarian, it's still super entertaining.

Old-school charm meets cult classic vibes in "Conan the Destroyer"! Epic fantasy RPG elements blend seamlessly with the sheer charisma of Wilt Chamberlain and Arnold Schwarzenegger. A must-see for fans of sword-and-sorcery adventures. What more could you ask for?

Released in 1984, *Conan the Destroyer* arrived a few months before *The Terminator*. Many people still get these two movies mixed up. A different director took the helm, and Richard Fleischer, being more experienced (and older) than John Milius, shifted the core settings from the open landscapes of the original to underground tunnels and mazes. The widescreen format might be relevant to this change. Adding basketball giant Wilt Chamberlain shows that the concept of a Schwarzenegger film villain being physically more imposing than the world-class bodybuilder himself wasn't a flash of brilliance from the *Predator* director three years later; it was already in play here.

Conan the Destroyer is a thrilling adventure film with a rich fantasy world and memorable characters. The movie's action-packed sequences and sword fights are intense and exhilarating, while Arnold Schwarzenegger brings his signature charm to the titular role. The plot is engaging, with unexpected twists and turns that keep the audience hooked. The film's score and visuals also add to the overall epic feel, making it a must-watch for fans of the sword and sorcery genre.
