Conan Poster # 6 The Destroyer Movie Arnold Schwarzenneger

Description

A vengeful barbarian warrior (Arnold Schwarzenegger) sets off to avenge his tribe and his parents whom were slain by an evil sorcerer and his warriors when he was a boy. Born and bred for battle, he is the most spectacular sword-and-sorcery hero of all (Arnold Schwarzenegger), braving dangers as Conan the Barbarian. Conan the Barbarian is a 1982 sword and sorcery/adventure film directed and co-written by John Milius. It is based on stories by Robert E. Howard, a pulp fiction writer of the 1930s, about the adventures of the eponymous character in a fictional pre-historic world of dark magic and savagery. The film stars Arnold Schwarzenegger and James Earl Jones, and tells the story of a young barbarian (Schwarzenegger) who seeks vengeance for the death of his parents at the hands of Thulsa Doom (Jones), the leader of a snake cult. The character, Conan, and the world of Hyboria were based on the creations of pulp-fiction writer Robert E. Howard from the 1930s. Published in Weird Tales, his series about the barbarian was popular with the readership; the barbarian’s adventures in a savage and mystical world, replete with gore and brutal slayings, satisfied the reader’s fantasies of being a “powerful giant who lives by no rules but his own”.
