Yor: The Hunter From the Future - title theme (Yor's World)

[@RogueBoyScout]

God I loved being a kid in the 80's. You would rent a gem like this, and honestly love it. Those pre-irony and cynicism days of wonder....

[@jonra3]

🤢

[@suchiuomizu]

"Pre-irony and cynicism", in the 80s? This is called letting childhood nostalgia blind you. And I say that as someone born in the early 80s.

[@gammagamma4522]

Facts we should at this point factory reset back to the 80's!

My parent's disappointment at that fact I will never grow up to be Yor is immeasurable.

I bought two copies of the Blu-ray in case I lost one! This is hands down the greatest movie ever made!

[@IMDRanged]

Even the hills have hard ons for this movie.

[@kamion53]

as one of my travel compagnions said when visiting Cappadocia: "there must be very much viagra in the soil of this country" but honest ly it's an amazing country one can hardly capture on camera.

It'll be even more beautiful when Constantinople is taken back from the Turks. ;P

[@tehn00bdude]

Whenever I watch Conan and he's traveling across the land I hear this song in my head

[@tehn00bdude]

...I didn't say that I couldn't watch Conan

[@j.r.cruzaguirre2734]

I actually saw this in the theater when it was originally released. When the song started and Yor runs up to the camera the entire audience laughed out loud. To this day it remains one of my guilty pleasures. Yor Lives!!!

[@morgino2405]

I saw the box office receipts when I was looking up this movie, they said internationally the movie made a whopping $2800 bucks so if you did you were on of the few!

[@horrorfanandy4647]

@@morgino2405 Not quite the case. It made $2,810,199 in the US alone, so I’m not quite sure where you got your source from. Would like to see it to make sure I’m not the one who’s mistaken but I don’t think I am 😂

[@misterprickly]

An anime company needs to buy the rights and make this a series!

This is prime Imaishi Trigger material!

[@DenpaKei]

If they did, it'd rule. The comic this is based on isn't half bad!

[@bikerscout2012]

I agree! Same for Krull if you remember that movie. Also they need to reboot The Last Starfighter!

[@scotterduke]

We're all just guests in Yor's world...he's the man.

[@benjaminolson7206]

Look movie makers, the most iconic opening credits sequences are when you have the hero wandering around while their somewhat silly but nevertheless awesome theme music plays and tells us how great they are. It worked for Shaft, it worked for Yor, it can work for your protagonist too.

[@gammagamma4522]

Gay Superman he's multiracial now non binary & votes for democrat feminist that identify with handicapped cats! I can already hear the music playing in my head!

[@CollinH42]

It's Yor's world, we just live in it. It took me a long time to come to terms with this, but now I have and I'm ready to move on with my life. He's the man.

[@nasw]

This was, is, and will be one of the best theme songs to any movie in the whole history of the medium. We are, as a people so much richer for this having been made...

[@BeyondDaX]

You know that I noticed just now, Yor was basically running in a circle the entire time in this sequence. Because he ended up in the path that he just started at the end. lol

[@thomaswelch1585]

this is the best movie opening theme. no one can say otherwise.

[@DisgruntledPigumon]

Masterspider5 I can’t find it, but on one version of Turkish Star Wars, there was a guy running across the top of a cliff and the music was so super orchestra disco... it might be better than this.

As a MSTie, I consider this one of the movies that got away

[@robintst]

Oh man, seriously. At least they got around to Space Mutiny eventually though.

[@Tareltonlives]

Space Mutiny is my favorite episode

[@graph180]

Hopefully, now that Mike, Bill, and Kevin are doing Rifftrax, they'll give Yor the treatment it deserves.

Aaaaggghhhhh!!! My childhood's come back to haunt me!!! Loved this movie when I was a kid.

[@JacobSprenger]

Yor looks like a real-life Prince Adam. Look at this fabulous hair!

[@luminusprime]

Yor is a more faithful adaptation of Masters of the Universe than the actual He-Man movie.

[@tunainoil]

Now that you mention it, Reb Brown (the actor playing Yor) would have been a perfect casting choice for He-Man. Instead, they picked Dolph Lundgren.

[@tellmeitsnottaken]

This has to be the most epic theme song ever.

[@Liberty-or-Death-1776]

Pfft, who needs Queen's "Flash (Gordon)" theme, when we've got Yor's theme?

[@StarWho666]

True, actually no

[@MaskedMan66]

Both are brill; actually, this starts out sounding a bit like Queen's theme fro "Highlander."

[@DrePants44]

Sometimes, I forget whose world it really is. Thank goodness I have this song to correct me during those dark times.

[@ImTheKingOfHyrule]

Anyone who can kill a triceratops with an ax is definitely the man.

[@ravenlord4]

Quite possibly the greatest theme song and opening credits sequence of all time.

[@Psydecar]

Yes, when I think of what kind of theme song an epic science fantasy movie should have, I think upbeat new wave.

[@OtakunoBakaLLC]

I remember watching this and recording on VHS when I was in elementary school. I would hum the song and not even realize it...

[@bikerscout2012]

Had to look this up today. Very appropriate for its time. Reminds me of an obscure band Afraid of Mice "Popstar" . Also a bit of the Fixx. "M" (Robin Scott) comes to mind as well vocally (there's more to M than "Pop Muzik"). Must be noted Ministry's first album "With Sympathy" came about as well before they became gritty .

[@NicoFilma]

Espectacular este film que vi en mi infancia...gracias por subirlo !!!

[@PNW_Sportbike_Life]

Loved this cheese-fest as a kid! I’d probably still love it now!

[@teddymills1]

Watched some Reb Brown biography. Reb seems like a decent reasonable guy. He knew this was campy and does not take it too seriously. Reb should be at the Comic Conventions.

[@Tchernobog]

best theme to anything

[@jasonjmoreland]

so this is the inspiration of Empire of the Sun.

[@pfitz9346]

Jason Moreland honestly it's not a bad song it's just badly vocalized, the movie is terrible, and so is the footage to go with it.

[@handznet]

Pfitz the song is awesome as is

[@housetrancformer]

WOW I remember being a kid and captivated by this song, thanks for posting.

[@kennethmccullah4905]

One of my favorite movies ever and I'm serious. Yes I know how cheesy it is but damn it, I love it. My dad blindly rented the VHS at our local video store when I was about 7 and I watched it with him that night. I fell in love with it instantly. My dad liked it to and for years would joke how cheesy it was but still damn entertaining. Anyway, when my dad rented it I watched it 2 more times over the weekend and for awhile after that I feverishly sought out my own VHS copy of it. I still have my old wore out VHS of Yor as well as the first DVD release and the blu ray they put out. Its filled to the brim with delicious cheese and I adore it. Yor most definitely is the man!

[@denverprator8590]

this is absolutely fascinating.

[@thesacredbeast2000]

yor managed to kill 4 or so different civilizations and yet managed to still look not only badass but like he was the hero

[@dbsommers1]

My theory: he's destroying civilizations to winnow out the weak and pooling the survivors into a super civilization. And because it's Yor doing it, I'm okay with that.

[@MrHEC381991]

I'd pay to see this in cinemas.

[@Len1977gt]

Brings back lot of childhood memories.... this song is fucking awesome... movie was pretty good too, was kind of a weird movie, but i loved it. It was good,

[@HolyJunkie]

Although when I read the lyrics and apply them to the movie, I find them utterly genius! Ultimately, the song here is telling the story of the movie- except incredibly subtly. Echo of ancient blast = Nuclear apocalypse Misty illusions = his shrouded past Touch of fire = ... He killed five civilizations. Six if you count the second time he killed purple cavemen White Bees/Wild Beasts = The chicks/the Dinosaurs I'm running out of room here, but I could go on.

[@Lejnus]

"he never sees the sun, he's always on the run" i wish this song would be on guitar hero, would be awesome.

[@TheCastellan]

The interesting part was that this 'movie' was actually a 5 or 6 part TV series in Italy. When it came to the states, it was HEAVILY edited to fit a movie time slot, so alot of stuff was cut out and is why half the film makes no sence. Also, I understand they had Reb Brown running to show Yor is a fit man, but why did they have Reb run in a rather feminine style? o_O

My dad and I were in a pawn shop looking for movies and we found the vhs of Yor in the bottom of some bin in the back of the store, we bought it for like a dollar, and for like a year every time i came over to his place we would watch it and laugh our asses off.

Lyrics, from what I could get (Minus the obvious Yor's World!): Lost in the world of past. The echo of ancient blast There is a man of future A man of mystery Yor tries to lead the way His search for a yesterday Misty illusions hiding his famous destiny Yor, the touch of fire. Yor of proud and free desire He never sees the sun He's always on the run Even his days are gone They say he will go on. His search goes on and on. Can't figure out some at the end, though- apart from the obvious.
