Subject: Favorite Fantasy Films Of the '70s/'80s

Written By: HawkTheSlayer on 06/22/06 at 2:47 am

I say pick up to 3.

I noticed other types of films, but not this category.
I happen to like fantasy films, & hope you have a few!

My all time favorite is "Excalibur".

"Ladyhawke" is another I like a lot.

So did the reason for my handle, but it didn't take away from the film itself.

I tend to think of Star Wars as a fantasy trilogy masquerading as science fiction... Though I suppose if I had to choose "pure" fantasy, I'd choose Labyrinth. I also like The Princess Bride, which I saw only recently, and Willow, which I recently bought on DVD.

When I was little, I also liked Legend, Red Sonja, and Conan the Destroyer (the more fantastical sequel to Conan the Barbarian, which I hated as a kid)... But I haven't seen these movies in many years, except for some parts of Red Sonja - and it looked like it sucked. What can I say? Tastes change as you get older. ;)

I recently watched Wizards, from the late '70s. It was... odd. Charmingly flawed, perhaps? :)

"Labyrinth" was shown on several television channels at the time of sad demise of David Bowie.  :\'(
