Yor, Hunter From The Future is perhaps the greatest fantasy epic ever made by the human race. The film has no faults. Perfect acting, dinosaur puppets, dead bats, and a theme song that makes you pumped up and wanna punch something. It's that good of a theme. Yor is perhaps the most well written character in a fantasy novel since Frodo Baggins. He is in this epic quest to find who he really is, but then in one adventure he goes too far and meets his love and her father. Yor must do the unthinkable when they are kidnapped by the hairier men with light purple skin and risks his life to save them. Shortly after the greatest twist in film history occurs. I will end it here but with this note; Yor is the man
... View MoreI have yet to see or experience anything like the grandeur of Yor. No joke.Welcome to a land where simple villagers work hard to avoid becoming the lunch special of the day for local dinosaurs. Kudos to the location scout for choosing to shoot in Istanbul, giving the film a very epic feel. At one point, a trans-dimensional vortex connects both Yor and Space Mutiny...Wow, a Yor vs Kalgon battle in the 'futuristic' basement is the only thing missing from giving this a full 10 rating.This romp is a blast because of 2 things:Reb Brown. He plays Yor as an earnest, heroic, good hearted savage who thinks as well as busts up cavemen chops. I noticed Yor's voice was dubbed and not actually Reb's. It DOES sound like the voice used to dub Ator's in Cave Dwellers (NOOOO!!). There are a few sparse moments where Reb's allowed to do his own shrieking or yelling. Perhaps the first time in movie history where Reb did NOT say 'Move! Move!'. Give it up to RB for doing his own running (well, a sort of running/prancing), forward tuck somersault rolls, and cutting up choice meats. It's no wonder Ka-Laa's totally smitten..she practically begging to go to Yor's cave.How much more heroic can Yor be when he even has his own theme song 'Yor's World'? To be fair, how about some love for Pag? The grizzled (yet loyal) fella can make fire, shoots a wicked bow, yet Yor gets all the spotlight! Plus, I totally endorse Pag's hemp policy - the most hilarious stinger of the movie.This film has taught me:1. A man can have many wives.2. Refrain from wearing highly flammable bandages near your flamesword.3. DON'T drink water from the sea.4. DO drink the blood of your enemies.5. If a babe is spread out in front of you and says "I have never belonged to another man", it's never a bad thing.6. Leave strange looking boxes alone!
... View MoreDear IMDb user,You may have seen trash movies, but u never saw Yor. U may have seen special effects so trashy u wanted to rip your eyes off, but u never saw Yor. You surely did enjoy thrash battle movements BUT you have never seen Yor!!!Man first, there are 2 different moves that Yor, the hero can perform with his stone axe, but guess what..... its one too much :D. Yor perfectly beats dinosaurs, cyborgs from future, etc. with an axe swinger from right to left!!!! This move is so stylish trashy and breaks all film fight rules ever created, one point why i love this movie :D . At one scene Yor changes tactics he performs a axe block, this is very surprising because at this point the Viewer might believe with an axe swinger you will be able to conquer the whole world;) .Secondly, Yors silly smile at different points of the movie... he jumps right in front of the camera, performs his sensational smile, at the beginning beats a dinosaur to death( guess with what move :D:D:D) and rescues a lady, performing again such an lusty smile, i think the lady got the message how to repay Yor for her rescue;)The Story doesn't count much (its easy to follow it) but gets some really thrashy plot changes. The sets are most of the time boring, few are good(indicates that some guys on the set knew their job ;) I recommend this movie to all the trash movie fans out there, but even to Hollywood fanatics with their good film chatter to watch and learn, because its a difference to create a "pro made" 200 million dollar trash film or to create the one and only "Yor" Film which surely has the best trash style ever seen on screen ;)
... View MoreThis film is so bad that it actually is worth watching to see what they ripped off from other films.The last half of this film is what you really need to tune in for. When out hero Yor, played by B movie golden boy Reb Brown and his friends are transported to a futuristic city. Why do B- Movie cities of the future always look like the basement of a water treatment plant? Yor has to battle the evil emperor, who looks strangely close to the evil emperor in the star wars films and his evil robots, who also strangely look like Darth Vader. To be fair the evil emperor has been working on new robots. These new more intelligent robots look like they have been chewing there stitches and had plastic collars put on them to make them stop. Best of all when Yor is fighting we are treated to a kicking rock soundtrack that sounds like a bad rip-off of Queens Flash Gordon soundtrack. You expect to hear "Yor, leader of the universe, Ah-ah, he'll save every one of us." If you can stop laughing during the fight scenes notice how everyone has to stay in the same place during the laser battle to make it easy for the special effects people to draw in the laser shots. Also notice the high tech control room the rebel city dwellers are in, it also bears a strange resemblance to the control room of a water treatment plant. Yes, they have mastered gravity but they still have large analog dials. If you liked Star Wars, He Man and the Masters of the Universe or Queens Flash Gordon soundtrack then catch this movie on cable because they ripped them all off and did a very bad job of it. Don't spend money to rent it. This movie is so bad it may make you smile!
