The David Whitaker musical score for The Sword And The Sorcerer is truly magnificent, helping to raise the movie out of its low budget origins. And shock of all shocks, the movie does not suffer from being directed by Albert Pyun.

Good review. You’re absolutely right about the famous triple (actually quadruple, as seen in the last duel) sword being highly underused for how bizarrely cool it is. Personally, I thought the constant slow-motion got in the way towards the end, but the fight choreography is surprisingly tight given that this was Pyun’s first movie (heck, considering that this is Pyun’s movie at all).
Also – I love how the poster specifically trumpets the film as being about “dungeons and dragons”. I’ll bet TSR would have sued Pyun and the studio into oblivion had this movie been released about four years later.
