In Review: DRAGONSLAYER (1981)

This week on the show that talks about stuff on purpose, we're shining a spotlight on 1981's fantasy cult classic DRAGONSLAYER, the delightful story of a beleaguered sorcerer's apprentice who bites off more than he can chew when he decides he's ready to do battle with a very old and very angry dragon that's made an uneasy peace with a nearby kingdom. It's a tale as old as time, a fairy tale for the ages, but this particular tale puts a fascinating spin on the old fantasy tropes with which we're all so familiar.

So join us on this spectacular journey into a distant past that never was, a time of myth and legend, of powerful wizards and foul monsters, an epic age of heroes and kings! Join us as we celebrate the one, the only... DRAGONSLAYER.
