The terrible and trecherous Pendragon plans to gain the throne of Cornwall by getting the king to abdicate and to marry his lovely daughter. To help him he has his dreadful witches in his castle and his almost unstoppable sorcery. A giant under his control abducts the princess, but on the way home with her the giant meets farming lad Jack who slays him. This is only the beginning.

You know a movie's gonna be good when the evil wizard has a gaggle of weird little freaks surrounding him at all times.
You know a movie's gonna be double good when Jack from Jack in the Beanstalk busts out a badass skeleton-arm whip (that his leprechaun buddy made for him) and uses it to obliterate a gang of ghouls.
Also, did they base Willem Dafoe off the henchman in this movie?

This is somehow more historically inaccurate than army of darkness.
To list ten such inaccuracies:
1. Cornwall has a monarchy
2. Cornwall's monarchy is independent of that of the English crown
3. Scottish sailors have close relations with the Cornish monarchy
4. There was a Battle of Land's End despite it not being know as that for around 600 years and said battle never taking place
5. Baboons are known to the general population
6. Everyone either has an american, shitty scottish or shitty irish accent
7. Outfits worn by the nobility and infantry were either completely out of place for the setting of 1062 or completely imagined with glitter glue
8. Thongs exist in a size which fit small monkeys
9. Cornwall is similar in geography to that of somewhere such as California
10. There is magic

they can take a dump in this world and still break out into song. doesn’t matter if it’s a good one either but hey, it had its moments.
