I got the idea for watching it when I heard it described on the MST podcast It's Just A Show, when in a pre-title, in medias res scene, the villain lady shouts: "I'll have my revenge, and Deathstalker, too!" followed by the title: DEATHSTALKER II. Groan!

There were only really two major male characters. Everyone else was either a lady (usually scantily-clad) or an extra or bit part. The guys were Deathstalker himself (which the movie seems to imply are first and last names: Death Stalker) and the eeevil sorcerer.

Early villain lady turns out not to be the real villain, but more of a henchwoman? She gets killed by D.S. halfway through, but is brought back to life by Sorcerer Guy in a magic ceremony involving a strobe light and him feeling her up. There are def some gross parts.

In that 80s fantasy style, the "fantasy" involved definitely seems to be of the cis male variety. But one fun moment is, in the climatic battle, Resurrected Villain Lady just says to hell with THIS and walks off!

Sorcerer Guy says she owes him her life, but she just says she owes her life to no man, *and just exits the movie, never to be seen again*. That's pretty awesome.

Also around the midway point Deathstalker and the princess he's helping get captured by amazons and he's made to fight their champion, a muscle-lady named Gorgo, in a make-shift wrestling ring, complete with a round card girl (shouldn't that have been a round card guy? nm)

Gorgo was pretty great! We found ourselves rooting for her. Sadly the needs of the plot won out and D.S. knocked her out with a dual chop in round 15, but she showed up again at the ending celebration, feasting away, living her best life.

Our "hero" Death Stalker, though. I don't think there's any movie in the series (played by someone different in every one of the FOUR) where he comes across as less than a huge jerk.

To get him to help her, the princess/seer at the start had to promise that their adventure would be a tale at *least* as great as Conan's. Slick move movie, name-dropping a better story in yours.

Princess lady, while not a great actor, had fun with her role. She was so gosh-darn gee-whiz energetic with it, it was hard to hate her. Sadly the movie took every opportunity to remove her top. As a guy I am expected to gaze and ogle and forgive any trespass that brings breasts.

It's just, can't we just talk instead? I kind of have a headache tonight. It's not you movie. Put on another fight scene. No- no, it's not necessary to show me her butt. I've just got some things on my mind, you know?
