Prince Colwyn (Ken Marshall) sets out on a daring journey to rescue his young bride who is held captive by the Beast. But slayers and alien beings under the command of the Beast oppose him at every turn. Colwyn must first reach a faraway cavern to recover the legendary Glaive, a key to phenomenal powers, then continue his search, witnessing sights and events beyond his wildest imagination. Facing the Beast, Colwyn must use the magic of the Glaive to save his fantastic planet from annihilation!

REVIEWS:

• “If it’s all more than a bit silly, not to mention derivative, Krull manages to cast a fantastical spell courtesy of Peter Yates’ direction.” – Nick Schager, The A.V. Club
• “While the fundamental Krull experience isn't significantly different than those found in other Quest/Adventure films, its blend of swordplay and Sci-Fi and spaceships and cyclopses makes it a fairly unique experience beyond the core.” – Martin Liebman, Blu-ray.com
