Everything you have read about this movie is true...unfortunately. This is a simple good guys vs. bad guys film. King Orthos (Carlo Rota) is the bad king who is aided by Warlock General Actae (James Kidnie). Belleros (Sebastian Roché) and Princess Philony (Nazneen Contractor) fathers were killed by Orthos. They vow revenge or justice. The bad guys conjure up a CG Chimera to kill her people. The good guys seek the aid of a witch (Rae Dawn Chong) who conjures up Pegasus to help them.
Not much in the way of plot twists. Pegasus has wings while in the air, on the ground it is just another white horse. The sword play was poorly choreographed as I don't think the actors could spell sword let alone wield one. There were a lot of cut-aways during the action as you never really see any type of penetration. Toward the end of the film, during a battle, I had to laugh at Pegasus. The fighting was "intense" causing Pegasus to get excited as we see close up scenes of the horse neighing and jumping up and down. When the camera goes back to the men fighting, the same horse is calmly tied to the wall.
Pegasus is a magic healer and also removes blood stains from clothing, eat your heart out Tide. The leather band Bellerous also seems magical as it bounces back and forth between his right forearm and left forearm at will. Destined to be an MST classic.
Parental Guide: No f-bombs, sex, or nudity. Killing, blood splatter, and bloody body parts strewn around.
