Ator the Fighting Eagle - Good Bad Flicks

[@McPh1741]

Man, nothing beats the badass art work of 80’s movie posters.

[@eval_is_evil]

Probably thats where most of the budget went they really were that awesome😅

[@D0NU75]

@@eval_is_evil and also most of the original script, a lot of the movie happens in the poster but never onscreen

[@charliefromstarkvillemissi1852]

All influenced by Frank Frazetta paintings. 60’s/70’s Italian horror posters are works of art too.

[@charliefromstarkvillemissi1852]

@@HeyYou992 Nobody could paint like Frazetta. He was the original, the genius and the best at it.

I like how the poster has a sabre tooth tiger as Ators companion, yet the movie just gave him a bear cub.

This channel is comfort food. You MUST check out “Yor: Hunter From The Future”. The hanggliding scene alone should have won it Oscars.

[@wraithstrongopark]

hahahahahahhahhaah Yor!!!!! holy shit, yes! he should look into that one.

[@Slysheen]

Did Cecil cover that already? I have the distinct memory of a GBF episode with a barbarian individual on a hang glider, can't remember the episode name though sadly. Maybe it was one of those films with a ton of alternate titles?

[@charliefromstarkvillemissi1852]

@@Slysheen Was the hang glider ALSO the corpse of a pterodactyl? Because you WOULD have remembered, believe me. EDIT: just checked, he hasn’t done an actual video on the movie yet. Maybe it was clipped in.

Holy hell! I saw this as a really little kid on cable and could only remember a guy dressed as a barbarian fighting a giant spider on some temple steps. For years, it has been that movie for me that you have feverdream memories of but don’t know the name. Thank you very much for closing out this lifetime mystery for me!

"..2nd edition of d&d", best reference in an excellent video !

[@travisshallenberger9486]

Oh wow!! This is one of my FAVORITE bad flicks! Once I started staying up late by myself in middle school, this was just about the first cheese fest I watched. I loved the sword & sorcery/Conan knock-off movies, but even my middle school excitement couldn't fool me into thinking this was a good flick. It was such an absolute stinker, but what a fun stinker it was! Thanks for exhuming, er, spotlighting such an important movie for me!

[@narcissus79]

I'm torn between these and post apocalyptic "Mad Max" type knock offs!

[@MattSaysHello]

Never even heard of this film but I’ll watch whatever you put out.

The Iron Warrior poster is AWESOME! Now THAT'S metal! 😎

[@woodenswordgames9724]

Loved the Deathstalker 2 reference. One of my favorite dumb movies, I've shown it to several of my friends

[@JoeDredd2012]

11:11🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I think I remeber catching this film on the TBS network on cable back in the mid 80's? Another fun job on the video Cecil!

[@micshork]

I hope you review more Conan Knockoffs like this. So many Sword & Sorcery movies of the time like Deathstalker, Conquest, Beastmaster and Warrior and the Sorceress were hilariously enjoyable.

[@RobertPilla]

I remember seeing this in theaters. we laughed our butts off!

[@NewYears1978]

I really wish I could talk to people who dislike your videos, just curious why. You put so much work into them and they're great.

[@GoodBadFlicks]

Thanks! I'm not sure, I guess its just not what they were expecting?

[@BlueEyesKaiba]

I just got out of school, made myself some good lunch and as I'm about to browse KZbin for something to watch, this videos pups up front and center, it's gonna be a good ass lunch 👍

I could watch this on Amazon…… but instead I’m watching this …… again. Time well spent.

[@chainlink2459]

Ator: I'm well-prepared, I can assure you. I-Dont-Use-Names: What, are you going to use your mighty sword? Ator: No, that's a different Ator movie.

[@petewadesays12]

This is probably one of your funniest reviews. "She's ready for Lilith Fair" Always exciting/informative seeing your work. Cheers

[@DerekPower]

Wes Anderson would say the Richie/Margot relationship was inspired by the Melville-directed and Cocteau-penned Les enfant terribles. Nope, it came from Ator the Fighting Eagle.

[@fletchkeilman2205]

Sometimes I wish Wes Anderson would just admit that his films have more to do with D'amato and Mattei than he would like us to believe.

Cave Dwellers is a favorite mst3k episode of mine

[@RavenHouseMystery]

Thanks Cecil for another hilarious episode. I've always enjoyed Ator as the silly film it is, though the whole spider cult gives it a creepy vibe. I don't know how the actor who played Dakkar managed to find the courage to work with all those spiders.

Love the cornball Ator series. And your exit music. I confess to starting the world's loneliest mosh pit every time I hear it.

I found out there's actually 4 Ator movies. A whole goddamn franchise. Some of them got released under 2 or 3 different titles, but there's: 1. "Ator the Fighting Eagle", aka "Ator the Invincible" 2. "Ator 2: the Invincible Orion", aka "The Blade Master", aka "Cave Dwellers" 3. "The Iron Warrior" 4. "Ator III [sic]: The Hobgoblin", aka "Hobgoblin", aka "Quest For the Mighty Sword"
