5.0 out of 5 stars
Back! By popular demand! :), February 4, 2005
This review is from: Deathstalker 2 (DVD)
This is a great "B" movie. I rated it a 5, which i don't ever hand out to "B" movies, but as far as they go, this is one of the greatest. Obviously it can't compare with greats like BraveHeart and such, but you have to know what you're getting into before watching this.
I believe there are 4 Death Stalker movies. 1 and 4 try to be "serious", kind of like Conan rip-offs.... not real great. 2 and 3 go the more "humorous" route, with 3 failing pretty badly.
But Death Stalker 2 is GREAT! Adventure, comedy, action, slashing, and for those that like beautiful women in their movies, Monique Gabrielle doesn't disappoint!
Be ready for a cheesy movie, but it's fun cheesy! Lots of great (and bad) one-liners throughout. :)

The Lord of the B-Movies, February 24, 2002
This review is from: Deathstalker 2 (DVD)
One of the best of the 80's sword and scorcery movies, Deathstalker 2 still rules. It has everything: swordfights, an evil sorceror (is there any other kind?), swashbuckling action, semi-clad beauties and a tongue-in-cheek sense of humor that ties it all together. For DS2 fans who have the VHS version and are wondering if the DVD version is worth buying: Yes! This version includes a feature-length audio commentary by director Jim Wynorski, Toni Naples (Sultana), and John Terlesky (Deathstalker himself) for behind-the-scenes information you didn't even know you wanted to know.... S&S B-movie fans in general and Deathstalker 2 fans in particular will want this movie.

"Is that your first name or your last name?", May 22, 2002
This review is from: Deathstalker 2 (DVD)
Deathstalker II RULES!!!! It's the best low-budget, comedy, fantasy T&A filled epic EVER. But enough about the film, we all know that's great, onto the DVD. The picture quality is fine, although it's best to turn the brightness up on your tv as it's quite dark(this isn't the DVD's fault I have a brighter VHS version but it just seems faded). This is not cropped so you get to see the full picture, cars and spare tires too. Audio, addiquate, gotta love that deathstalker II theme. Extras: The audio commentary is informative and funny, you really think this movie was fun to make, it has a trailer to. Bad Points: It would have been nice if this had had a multistream option like the T2 disc. So you could choose between the normal version and the Director's Cut. What this would mean is that the disc would skip the clips of DS1 and Barbarian Queen and the extra long fight footage to make it a more concise viewing experience. Although not having this option isn't worth dropping a star as you still get to see everything but have to skip the bits yourself. More out-takes would have been nice, but I guess you'll have to live with the ones in the credits.
