Patrick Swayze, looking silly in a Prince Valiant wig.

I enjoyed this one, thought it woukd be more geared for kids, but not so sure anymore, no nudity or cussing but think those under 12 would lose interest. Great Dragon. had some funny parts, its good for a rental and if your into mid-evil times add it to your collection.

Man this was bad...after watching this guy in ROME as Marc Antony - I thought he would be good. Piper Parebo, what are you doing in this crap.
