Barbarian Queen (1985)


Set during the days of the Roman Empire, a simple village is raided by troops, and most of the people are whisked off to be slaves or killed. Three women survive and set off to liberate their people, led by Lana Clarkson as the Barbarian Queen
This film is a definitive B- movie classic in my eyes. It features the obligatory 20 minute tit rule, terrible dialogue delivered with worse dubbing and wooden actors stumbling around a clunky plot that attempts to be far more epic than it could ever hope to achieve. It renders a film like Red Sonja into looking like Spartacus and remains entertaining through out due to its sheer low quality. 
Off screen however, Lana Clarkson sadly became the victim of notoriously crazy record producer, Phil Spector, who murdered her in 2003 :(
