The 13th Warrior (1999)
from Alcohollywood
Happy New Year, listeners! For 2013, we (along with Julia once again) are starting out the year with The 13th Warrior, the strange 1999 film starring Antonio Banderas as a Muslim who finds himself recruited to help stop a group of 'demons,' in true Beowulf style. Directed by both John McTiernan and author Michael Crichton, based on the latter's novel Eaters of the Dead, the film is a muddled, dimly lit mess that is difficult to follow and unfortunately hard to look at. Despite some great practical effects, and a committed performance by Banderas, it still can't escape just how mediocre it is. However, we've got some magic potions to help you through the film, along with our rules and review here!
