- TriviaAccording to special make-up designer Nick Maley, the special effects character of the Beast was "the first self-contained animatronic suit... providing not only facial movement but also lung, heart and body-fluid movement all without a single external cable! . . .The Emerald Sear transformation puppet, which was intercut with a non 3-D transformation make-up, attracted the welcome attention of the great Dick Smith".
- GoofsWhen Ynyr comes back from the Widow of the Web and declares "At sunrise the Black fortress will appear in the Iron desert!" he falls over. As he does so he damages the 'rock' he is standing on, revealing the polystyrene it's made from underneath.
- Quotes
Prince Colwyn: The reward is freedom... and fame!
Torquil: Freedom? We have it! And fame? Nah. It's an empty purse. Count it, go broke. Eat it, go hungry. Seek it, go mad!
Featured review
Good early-80's fantasy
Saw this one at the movies and really enjoyed it.For a non-CG picture,I thought the effects were quite good.Of course,I'm not a hard -to-please Gen-X whiner,so "cheesy" effects don't bother me too much.And why don't you MST3K wannabes come up with another word besides "cheesy"?Anyway,I got just as much enjoyment from "Krull" as I did "Lord of the Rings" trilogy,and my butt did'nt get as tired from sitting."Krull"had a better music score,too,so there.
