THIEF. WARRIOR. GLADIATOR. KING.

Ripped from the pages of Robert E. Howard's beloved pulp stories, and brought to the screen by maverick director John Milius, Conan the Barbarian is one of the most beloved fantasy-action adventures in Hollywood history, which not only popularized a new subgenre - the sword-and-sorcery film - but also made a cinematic icon of its star, former bodybuilding sensation Arnold Schwarzenegger.

In an ancient land, young Conan witnesses his family being slaughtered by an evil snake cult ransacking his village. Raised as a slave, the adult Conan (Schwarzenegger) rises up through the fighting pits, becoming an unparalleled and fearsome warrior. Unexpectedly freed, Conan and his companions - two fighters, Subotai (Gerry Lopez) and Valeria (Sandahl Bergman), as well as a Wizard (Mako) - are enlisted by King Osric (Max von Sydow) to free his daughter from the hypnotic clutches of the same cult that murdered Conan's family long ago, led by the shape-shifting sorcerer Thulsa Doom (James Earl Jones).

The story begins when a horde of rampaging warriors massacre the parents of young Conan and enslave the young child for years on The Wheel of Pain. The Wheel of Pain seems to have as its only purpose the building up of Conan`s muscles, so it`s no surprise that one day Conan grows up to become Arnold Schwarzenegger. As the sole survivor of the childhood massacre, Conan is released from slavery and taught the ancient arts of fighting. Transforming himself into a killing machine, Conan travels into the wilderness to seek vengeance on Thulsa Doom (James Earl Jones), the man responsible for killing his family. In the wilderness, Conan takes up with the thieves Valeria (Sandahl Bergman) and Subota (Gerry Lopez). The trio comes upon a weird snake cult, linked to Doom, and Conan wants to trek off to Doom`s mountain retreat to kill him. But he is prevented from doing that by King Osrik (Max Von Sydow), who wants the trio of warriors to help rescue his daughter who has joined Doom in the hills.

    Die Rolle war Arnold wie auf dem Leib geschnitten. Brutal und FSK16 zu recht.

    Der Film bildet das Maximale limit für dieses Genre. Mit klasse Effekten, meiste Blutigen Kampfszenen und einer klasse Besetzung, sowie eine gute Story machten diesen Film zum Kult, der auch heute gut rüber kommt. Ein klasse Schwarzeneggerfilm.

    Hab den Film gerade erst wieder mal gesehen und ich muss sagen, er ist nach wie vor die Messlatte im Genre! Besser wirds nimmer. Schade gibts nicht gleich ne Manowar-CD dazu....;) Crom forever!

    Sag mir was ist das Schönst für einen Mann... allein diese Szene lässt einem eine Schauer über den Rücken fahren. Bildgewaltig inszeniert und mit einer genialen Stimme (der Erzähler) erzählt. Einer der besten Filme die ich je gesehen habe. Man wüscht sich, dass die Geschichte immer weiter geht.

  • Kein Hit

    Der Klassiker schlechthin! Schwarzenegger sieht man selten so hart und ungeschliffen.
    Die erste halbe Stunde dieses Filmes gehört zu den besten der Filmgeschichte!

    Bis heute ist dieser Film einzigartig in diesem Genre!!! Geniale Bilder mit extrem kraftvoller Musik unterlegt. Knallharte Swordfights und ein echt fieser Bösewicht!!
