On Thursday, amidst the fair amount of serial violence and the Dutch national team, I decided to catch a movie, and it turned out to be this one, Gor. You might wonder how I ended up with a film like this, given that I have a list of some unknown cult-style movies and I had set out to pick something different this week. And in itself, I succeeded, and this film fit in perfectly, even though it isn't really my genre and the film wasn't really very good either.

The expectation was actually that it would resemble Masters of the Universe a bit, but this turned out to be more like Sword and Sorcerer. Professor Tarl gets worse and worse on Wednesday with a lecture hall that isn't very interested, gets rejected, and then suddenly finds himself in another world as well. You have those days, right? And let's be honest, the development of the dull professor is remarkable to put it mildly, and otherwise it isn't always that good either—take the average fight, for example, which looks like a sword fight on a schoolyard. Besides that, what on earth is it about....?

Still, Gor wasn't entirely unpleasant to watch, considering the budget must have been ultra-low, yet they still tried to make the most of it. Oliver Reed hams it up with gusto, and with Palance we have another typical character. Aside from that, the enormous group of scantily clad women stands out, with a particular emphasis on Denton and Ferratti. Nevertheless, this whole thing doesn't deserve a passing grade.
