I used to be stationed in the Mojave desert in the 90's. We used to have B-movie parties in my barracks room since I had a couch, a love of B-movies & no one had anywhere else to be.I picked up this gem in the used-for sale bin at the video store & it went into the rotation at least once a month. enough nudity to keep a young man watching, enough humor to keep a drunk mob laughing, enough plot to be a movie.Found the director's cut DVD all these years later WITH commentary. Snatched it up and haven't looked back. The commentary is even funnier than the movie. 10/10

Look at the poster for this film, its damn cool with a really hot barbarian female, aggressive and looks like some old Amiga computer game box art. Remember the old classic computer game 'Barbarian'? I wonder if they got their box art ideas from these films and the poster art? Now I look even the font on the text is similar for both, curious.Now watch the film and you notice some slight differences with what you may have been expecting. Not that you really should be expecting much with this franchise. The cheap cheap low budget sequel to the first film really does earn the label of B-movie in every aspect.The first film was reasonable but this is dire. The main lead looks the part but acts like a buffoon in lame attempts of badly executed humour. The continuity is gone as 'Deathstalker' is now a different younger actor, not that continuity was probably high on the directors list...or your expectation list either.As before there are plenty of topless females running around, this is fine, its just a shame they are all running the flimsiest sets you have ever seen. The comedy is in watching the bad acting against the homemade sets, just like good old Ed Wood. Of course you can't really knock such a film as it was never meant to be a serious major production, although there is care involved clearly. Its nowhere near as good as the first and that was average at best, they actually use many old clips from the first film to flesh out this one. Bad move when you see the characters from the first film, ones that were killed even, errr...did anyone check that?2/10

Too much fun. Cheap, but fun. Yep… just campy fun. This acclaimed… oh. I don't really see much to it and that's why I'll keep it short. Directed by Jim Wynorski, the extremely low-rent and cartoon-like sword and sorcery romp 'Deathstalker 2: Duel of the Titans' happened to be a sequel that would go down the straight-to-video root. Sure it's trashy, gaudy and bare-bones, but it has ticker and its comical touch (feeling like a parody on the sub-genre's conventions) with a snappy script springing a wink-wink attitude and smart-lipped dialogues made it a lot easier to take. At times it was eye-boggling to what came out of the mouths, due to overplaying itself which for some could be torture as it begins to grow a bit tiresome. The performances are ham-fisted, but acceptable to what's on show. John Terlesky makes for a charismatic heroine bestowing endless appeal, but plenty of stamina when action erupted. An delectably cute Monique Gabrielle in is two character roles of two different kinds; an innocent and bitch. John Lazar gives a mannered evil performance as the Jarek the Sorcerer. Despite the obvious restrictions (some utterly second-rate props and sets with shoddy make-up FX and special effects) Wynorski no-nonsense handling never lets the pace dip and throws in a rowdy barrage of energy-filled and atmospheric adventures on the journey. Due to the jumpy lay-out of set-pieces, the narrative feels incoherent than anything kept-in-check and smoothly flowing. The combat action have stodgy and almost slow-motion choreography, but the final confrontation (Deathstalker v Jarek) is worthwhile amongst all the charades. It plays its familiar genre staples in what is cheaply exploitative, but harmlessly cheesy hokum.

Decently directed by Wynorski, Deathstalker II offers action,breast shots,bloody duels,ever thrilling adventures,Terlesky is decent and entertaining,he knows how to handle a sword and is at last great.Monique Gabrielle kidnaps our hearts with his almost naked and soft body.Ohh,we love her.In the role of Reena she stars as a lovable,but not defenseless girl.At last we can see her GREAT ass and tits.The villains are also decent and the fights well choreographed. Keep an eye to Maria Socas -the topless witch of "Warrior and the Sorceress"- that helps our heroes to defeat the evil with her army of beautiful amazons...Hey,there are also outtakes at the end of the movie.A must see. Don't lose it...
