Vikings with American accents
I first saw this movie on the big screen when it first came out. The tune that plays in the background and on the large Viking horn stuck with me for years. Since this as a young lad this has always been my first impression of Vikings.
As the story unfolds you get the impression that the Vikings are the civilized people and the English are the barbarians. The Vikings sound American and the English sound, well English. The story contains all the elements of a tragic play. Relatives that do not know they are and rivalry for beauty (Janet Leigh). Pay close attention to the fact that there is only one scene with blood in it and that is when a hawk attacks Einar. There is absolutely no more blood so don't look for it. There are plenty of scary moments and magic and "stay in the car" type scenes. All in all you will be impressed.
The DVD, being economical, you would not expect any DVD goodies (Extras); However there is a Photo gallery with audio commentary by Director Richard Fleischer. That makes the movie more enjoyable. He explains some thing about the technical end of the movie and the actors' lives during the movie. Most of all he tried to make the Vikings themselves look as authentic as possible.
