Follow the Star

Yes, we’ve got yet more images from the ongoing production of Albert Pyun’s sequel to The Sword and the Sorcerer, Tales of An Ancient Empire. What’s new this time? More shots of All The Boys Love Mandy Lane‘s Whitney Able as the sorceress Xia - and the betting money is that when Pyun talks about this movie having plenty of nudity that Able is going to be among those naked - as well as the first shot of German strongman Ralf Moeller as the General and Jennifer Seibel-Newsom - aka the current first lady of San Francisco - as the Queen.
Here’s how Pyun first desribed the film to us:
It’s got a sexy sorceress, hordes of demonic vampires, a giant serpent, sea pirates, nasty sword (and axe, spear, leg of cow) fights and gore and nudity galore. Everything that a rousing adventure needs to have.
Yes, this will be a hard R.

Does anyone know whether or not this movie will prompt a re-release of “The Sword and the Sorcerer” on DVD?

Here’s hoping. Anchor Bay had the rights for a while in the states. Don’t know where they stand now.
It is strange, seeing what a strong cult film that it is, that a decent special edition hasn’t been released.
But after talking to some people at Fantastic Fest who know their shit, the cult DVD marked is way smaller than we like to think it is.

Sword and Sorcerer notwithstanding, has Albert Pyun every made a watchable movie? I’d be interested in posters listings of the most watchable Pyun films.

Am I the only one that wishes they were related to Albert Pyun?
You KNOW his pad would be the coolest, scuzziest, most messed-up (in the best way possible) place ever.
I imagine blood some fake, some real, various forms of instruments of death, again some plastic but some ridiculously deadly, ALCOHOL, nude things including but not limited to latex body parts, scantily glad b-grade actress “head” (I use the term loosely) shots and of course ubiquitous pin-ups and magazines. If I ever find out Albert Pyun lives like a monk in a futuristic all-white egg sans any traces of his films, I won’t be surprised but the world of man will be sadder for it.
Rock on Uncle Pyun, rock on!!!

I’m all for cheap, entertaining fun, but this guy’s filmography reads like Bush Jr’s dvd collection.
Should’ve known with Sorbo. Damn you SORBO!!!!!
