My review was written in March 1989 after watching the movie on Warner video cassette.
This followup shot in 1987 in southern Africa back-to-back with Cannon's "Gor" is a puerile adventure film. It's headed direct to video in the U. S. from Warners.
Handsome Italian star Urbano Barberini encores as the hero of John Norman's endless series of pulp novels, transported hokily to the planet of Gor in what plays like a daydream. With nerdy sidekick Russel Savadier and a helpful dwarf (Nighe Chipps) he battles gladiator-style against evil high priest Jack Palance, attempting to free the planet from slavery.
Ho-hum plot goes nowhere and beautiful heroine Rebecca Ferrati (a Playboy magazine graduate) is wasted. With no sci-fi or fantasy trappings, pic has only pretty views of the Namib desert to offer.
