This week on We Want The D we're heading back into the Disney Dark Ages with DRAGONSLAYER; a movie so outside the realm of Disney's brand they didn't even put their title card in front of it. This movie makes a lot of mistakes: trying to blend Disney's family friendly image with a dark fantasy movie replete with bloody virginal sacrifices; casting an actor who later defined his career by playing weirdos and oddballs as a heroic and romantic lead; being badly written. But for all those mistakes and missteps, and for all the House of Mouse may want to pretend they never made this film, this movie actually defined a decade of fantasy films and influenced some of the genre's greatest modern storytellers. Add in some innovative and still-impressive special effects and you have a recipe for a classic episode of Vicky, Nolan and Jill being torn between praise and condemnation all in the same breath.
