Awesome sound track by queen, props and background were kinda trippy, actors were a little on the low quality performance. Although it does feature Max von Sydow as Ming the merciless. About on par with Conan the Destroyer or maybe short circuit.

Campy cheesy fun even when it first came out. Millennials need not try an accept the very poor special effects, over the top acting and amazing Soundtrack by Queen. Just let the late boomers and Gen X'ers enjoy this without your fuss.
