    I'm glad Rocky is on the list. It's easy to make fun of the

    Not sure what's inspiring here:
    The Wizard of Oz - Transported to a surreal landscape, a young girl
    kills the first person she meets and then teams up with three strangers
    to kill again.


    Clearly a white racist and religious bigot too ... killing
    two oppressed green-skinned Wiccans !!! :-)

    I finally saw it last year after 40 years. :O It was decent. Also, why crosspost to many newsgroups?

    OK .... I'm gonna call it ..... the original "Conan The Barbarian" !

    Fighting, drinking and wenching, manly men and bold
    women, evil and intrigue, science and witchcraft, suffering
    and vengance, defeat and victory - plus about every major
    Jungian archetype and Freudian symbol in the book all
    without too much unnecesary chatter. THE PERFECT FILM !

    You might want to smoke some steroids beforehand
    to help put you in the correct non-wimpy mindset.
    Snowflakes, um, not much to do for YOU alas :-)

    And that one short scene, where our protagonists
    try to top each others god ..... take what lesson
    from it you will, or dare.
