For the past few years I've been hunting for a movie that I saw on superchannel sometime in the early to mid 80's. I would have been 5-10 years old and remember almost nothing about it except for two scenes kinda.

It's probably some crappy conan rip off since there was tons of them during that era but anyways here's all that I remember. There is a throne that has a snake in the top behind a little door. It comes shooting out and of course scared the crap out of me way back when. At the end of the movie I think the entire castle has sunk into a swamp and the throne bubbles back to the surface and the little door opens and the skeleton of the snake comes shooting out.

I've been killing brain cells watching tons of different crap movies from that era but haven't been able to find this yet. Does anyone remember this at all?

Was it one of those crappy Ator movies?

Try parsing through Badmovies .org. Pics on every page and maybe your hunk of junk is in there.

The throne with the snake you describe sounds either like Skeletor's throne or like the outhouse at pstarr's doomstead.

oh good

edit: Sorry for the snarky strider3700. I couldn't help it as I had just returned from a painful experience--the new Star Trek--and I was feeling anti-'bad' sci-fi.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('pstarr', 'W')e were expecting big crowds at the 10:00 pm show. Practically no one showed but three Arcata stoners. They still managed to sit right directly behind me in an nearly empty theater, and emit low-pitched 'whoas' 'kewls' and giggles the entire time.

')Anyway, there's this little thing known as 'suspension of disbelief' which one is expected to employ when confronted by such minor details. For example we all know that sound does not transmit through the vacuum of space, yet it has been accepted artistic license for years to include the sounds of weapons fire, ship propulsion, planet explosions etc. in virtually all 'space opera', simply because it would be exceedingly dull to watch a film without them.

The new trek movie rocked. However as a Trekkie nerd I was incensed at the beaming onto a starship travelling at warp from a planet light years behind bit. To the best of my knowledge that was a feat beyond even Georgie La Forge in TNG series.

We Irish used to be very advanced you know.
