Detailed plot synopsis reviews of In the Time of the Barbarians


In a mythic past, a kind, gentle, muscular, barbarian king with big muscles and great hair, defends his people and sexy, scantily clad queen against mean, nasty barbarians. She holds a magic jewel that keeps her from harm. The bad guys manage to catch them both, steal the jewel, kill her, and escape to 20th century L.A. He follows. There he rescues, and meets, a TV reporter who is the spitting image of his late queen. She is impressed with his heroic goodness, and encourages him to fight against crime. His nemesis, meanwhile, had become a two-bit hood. He sees the barbarian king on the news, one thing leads to another, and they eventually have a showdown. In the end, Our Hero goes victoriously back to his time leaving the reporter pining for him.

This film has some charm, and good looking leads. It also looks like a less than professsional student film.
