Trivia:

Most of the footage from Munkar's "orgy" is actually footage taken from the film Deathstalker (1983). This includes all sequences including the chained girl and the pig-faced warrior. It's most noticeable in some of the faraway shots where the throne is visible and it is clearly not Martin Kove sitting there.

Goofs:

Revealing mistakes: When Wooby first appears, supposedly tied to a tree, as the bandits rough him up, his left hand comes out and he quickly puts it back, but it can be seen not to be tied at all.

Movie Connections:

Edited from Deathstalker (1983)

Wooby

The best movie to ever feature Wooby. Only one word can sum what the awesomeness of this movie. I don't know what that word is, but rest assured I will find it. The only character you need to watch in this movie is Wooby, and all the others. Wooby is the greatest actor this side of Martin Kove. Wooby may also be the richest character to emerge from the world of film since...ever. I propose a sequel entitled Wooby: Barbarian II. It's a buddy cop movie starring either Gary Busey or Danny Glover and Wooby. They battle time-traveling terrorists in present-day New York City. There's the usual back and forth between the reluctant new partners and the requisite moment where Glover/Busey sees the true tortured soul of Wooby, as he writhes on a bed in a cheap motel in pain from a full belly moaning "ooh I hope you didn't want any cake 'cause I ate it all."
