My newest obsession are SOV sword & sorcery and fantasy films that look like they were made by either LARPers on their downtime or Ren Faire actors on the off season or a mix of both. Cheap costumes and random forest locations are a must.

And that's a lie, I had a brief obsession with this last year but a new movie re-ignited it...

I recently discovered The Song of the Sword (1986), a film made by Abraxas Productions in Kansas, which was crewed by locals. I don't believe it has ever seen distribution since it has no IMDB page and absolutely no information on the internet about it. It was uploaded to Archive.org by Demolition Kitchen Video, who appear to be a Kansas based preservation group.

And it's strange. I never set out to find and catalog all these SOV fantasy films, but here I am.

It started when I was looking up the director of Phobe, The Xenophobic Experiments (1995), Erica Benedikty, and saw she also directed a SOV fantasy film called Kobblestone, the Journey Begins (1995).

Watching that led me to find this Letterboxd list by user waxmask. That list led me to Way Bad Stone (1991) and an obsession had begun.

Below is what I think may be a complete list of these SOV fantasy films (analogue not digital video): 1812: The King's Regiment (1984) The Song of the Sword (1986) Dragon Quest Fantasia Video (1988) [40 minute short] The Lords of Magick (1989) Way Bad Stone (1991) Dragonstrike (1992) [VHS with same titled board game] Scary Tales (1993) ["Level 21" story] Kobblestone, the Journey Begins (1995) Ionopsis (1997) Disaster Squad (1998) [40 minute short by high schoolers] Disaster Squad 2 (2002) The Gamers (2002) Masters of Magic (2004 or 2008)

Likely digital video but the same aesthetic and vibe: The Gamers: Dorkness Rising (2002) Druid Gladiator Clone (2003) Darkon (2006) [the best documentary about LARPing, in my opinion] Dark Dungeons (2014)

Moonchild (1994)

Cheap and charming ultra low budget SOV werewolf flick set in a post apoc future. Features cyborgs, cannibals, underground rebels and a wolf-human hybrid fighting to save his son from an evil tyrant.

Bloodthirsty Cannibal Demons (1993)

Demon possession turns people into bloodthirsty monsters in a theatre... so basically, it's like a budget version of Demons (1985), with a healthy does of early Todd Sheets style. Lots of splatter and very little story. Overall, an enjoyable piece of early-90s shot-on-video trash, as long as that's all you're expecting it to be. However, there is a very noticeable lack of cannibalism.

3/10
