Ep. 11 Conan the Barbarian


Listen Later

Jacob and Kieran look at the early Arnold Schwarzenegger film, Conan the Barbarian. From John Milius, Conan tells the story of the eponymous barbarian... well part of it, anyway. There's a lot of backstory for the future films in the franchise, which makes this episodic, classic-style adventure film somewhat ahead of its time in all the wrong ways.
