Quotes:

Unknown: You, you will regret what you have done this day. I will make you regret ever being born. Your going to wish you never left your mothers womb, where it was warm and safe... and wet. i am going to show you pain you never knew existed, you are going to see a whole new spectrum of pain, like a Rainbow.

This is it!!!

Korgoth of Barbaria!!! Ever since having watched "The Barbarians" (1987) -an admittedly poor movie- as a kid, I have been on the seemingly never-ending quest for some at least equally good barbarian entertainment. Just by chance I heard of an adult cartoon named "Korgoth of Barbaria" in which Genndy Tartakovsky (Whom I highly venerate since "Dexter's Laboratory") is involved. And now, finally, after years of searching I have found The ultimate barbarian!!!

Korgoth is the most entertaining action cartoon ever! It contains over-the-top violence that is tamed by the never missing hilarious humor of the series. I could hardly stop laughing when I saw the prime episode for the first time. It is just so funny. I actually watched it four times in a row because I could just not believe that I was actually watching the cartoon I've been dreaming about since I was a kid. But do not be mistaken. This is definitely not a cartoon for children. It is one though for grown-ups who are still in touch with their inner child. If you appreciate some good adult entertainment, you're in for one hell of ride.
