Howard's tale of a sword-swinging warrior cleaning up corruption in the mythical kingdom of Valusia. His mission wins him enemies among the nobles, who plot his death and entrap him in a marriage to a vicious 3,000-year-sorceress.

Reviews for Kull the Conqueror
not nearly as painful to sit through as expected ... there's enough here to kill 90 minutes without the trade-off of losing too many brain cells

A transparent attempt to cash in on the success of TV's Hercules and Xena
Just another routine sword-and-sandals action yarn, of the kind that fell out of fashion some years ago.
