 | | It's easy to dismiss "Kull the Conqueror" as a "Conan the Barbarian" wannabe crossed with television's "Hercules: The Legendary Journeys." After all, "Kull" was conceived by pulp writer Robert E. Howard, who also created "Conan," and the movie stars Kevin Sorbo, whose day job is playing "Hercules" on TV. |
 | | And, indeed, "Kull the Conqueror" proves to be just another routine sword-and-sandals action yarn, of the kind that fell out of fashion some years ago. |
 | | The primary plot devices have to do with an evil witch (Tia Carrere) being resurrected, then attempting to seduce Kull into joining her as she attempts to take over the kingdom (or is that the world?), along with Kull's true love for one of the women in his harem (Karina Lombard). |
