Aroview: First part of Dir. Lang's recreation of the German Nibelungen myth cycle (that inspired Wagner's 'Ring'), features fire-breathing dragons, deformed trolls, jealous Queens and the teutonic man-god himself, Seigfried. A must for Tolkien fans, this fully realises a dark, atmospheric fantasy world.

4 stars (Very Good) A pretty impressive cinematic feat for its day. Some elements are laughable today - the dragon with blood that seems to flow like a hose is the prominent example - but there's no denying its influence on just about every fantasy epic to come after it. ~K. Ino
