      Storyline

      Edit
      The wandering barbarian, Conan, alongside his goofy rogue pal, Malak, are tasked with escorting Queen Taramis' virgin niece, Princess Jehnna and her bodyguard, Bombaata, to a mystical island fortress. They must retrieve a magical crystal that will help them procure the horn that legends say can awaken the god of dreams, Dagoth. Along the way, Conan reunites with the wise wizard, Akiro and befriends the fierce female fighter, Zula. Together the heroes face ancient traps, powerful Wizards, plots of betrayal, and even the dream god, Dagoth, himself! —Tim Harrison Snlmidgit@hotmail.com

      Did you know

      Edit
      • Trivia
        The production had a hard time finding a horse for Wilt Chamberlain to ride. He was so tall that his feet touched the ground. They ultimately found one in Spain that was big enough and imported it to Mexico.
      • Goofs
        (at around 1h 8 mins) Just after Akiro reads the legend on the wall of the crypt regarding the woman-child with a certain mark, we are treated to a view of the mark that makes Jehnna so special on the swell of her left breast (a pink star shaped mark). However, earlier in the movie (at around 45 mins), when Jehnna first awakens in the castle of Toth-Amon as well as the scene a few minutes after this when she lifts the jewel/key from its place, this same area of her chest is perfectly visible but the mark is not there.
      • Quotes

        Jehnna: I suppose nothing hurts you.

        Conan: Only pain.

      • Alternate versions
        The film was cut for an 'All' (all audiences) rating by the Korean censors for cinema and video exhibition in South Korea in 1986 to reduce all of the violence sequences. It remained cut for 15 years. In 2001, the film made its debut on DVD with all the censored footage put back in with an uncut '15' (under 15s require an adult) rating.

      Conan
      Pretty dull sequel with a boring Predictable story, The action was ok I suppose but nothing great, There was too many supporting cast when it should be Conan and Conan only, They made the tone lighter and put more humour in it and it didn't work 90% of the time but I did laugh when the Camel from the first came back to get revenge on Conan and ended up getting knocked out again, Nothing memorable and only watch it if you're a fan of the first.
