How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A gloriously unserious sword-and-sorcery romp where a musclebound hero quests for magical artifacts while the plot careens between tournament duels, dungeon escapes, and increasingly silly magical threats. It's pure B-movie fantasy adventure that commits fully to its own ridiculousness.
