...But that's faint praise indeed! There was no sequel advertised at the end of this one so whether the 3rd film in this trilogy ever sees the light of day is not looking good. First the good - . The Dragon was actually decently rendered in this one for an ultra low budget film. . The acting from all {bar Jon Paul Gates who's still stupefyingly awful} was significantly better than in the previous movie. . The monsters were pretty decent bar the blue man group orc rip offs - The Lizard King's Make-up was very good indeed. . The fight choreography though still generally bad was in places almost decent. Now the bad - . The writing is still sub-par even by Asylum standards! . Jon Paul Gates villainous Prince is as I've mentioned above really very bad indeed! . The second Katori warrior woman has not only changed actresses but seemingly changed characters - She's now called "Freya" and I don't see that name anywhere in the first film's credits! . The comic relief spearman is completely wasted - I'm sure he's meant to be a big part of the 3rd movie if that ever gets made but here and in the first movie he's basically pointless padding! . The film still suffers from slow pacing. My final thoughts - I've seen a lot of bad fantasy movies from the 60s, 70s, 80s right up to Asylum's more recent efforts and this is by no means the worst...That award goes to "Knights of the Damned" and I'm sure most of the people who watched that refused to watch this which is a pity as it's actually much better and if you like low budget fantasy such as Hawk the Slayer, Deathstalker and DragonWars it comes off quite well comparatively. I've also noticed that most of the other reviews here not only don't mentions Knights of the Damned but seem to have not noticed that this is a sequel at all - Lucky them. I suggest they do NOT go back and take in the previous movie unless they're looking for a candidate for worst movie ever made!

Another low-mid budget film that people should see.. dragons, zombies.. ish, lots of fights all in 1 movie??.. I honestly can't see why people think this is a bad film.. it's bloody brilliant

This whole movie has been put together very poorly the director must of been 10 years old. The actions and expressions are very stupid. The background had a field with straw thats been combined.. so come on do your homework. The outfits are not to bad but some are very sketchy to point you know that its from your local joke & silly costumes shop. You can the people in the suits and costumes. Its very mismatch all the way through really Got abit of walking dead zombies with a few lord of the rings orcs.. its all parts of different movies in one but done very badly all my friends where just laugh at how pathetic the movie is an to such a great title. DARK WASTE be more spot on. The speech is to modernised to the point you got laugh more at it. The whole script is like a children's play gone wrong.

This was just the worst movie I've ever laughed hysterically through! Firstly, the sets. They made no effort to hide modern fixtures, such as fences and even warning signs on doors; even trying to hide plug sockets behind a candle at one point! It looked as though they had gone to a heritage site before the general public started arriving and just filmed away on a camcorder as quick as they could before any staff noticed! The costumes. The zombies were just terribly made up, looking like a group of mates you'd find clubbing down town on Halloween weekend. The monsters had zips showing in the back of their costumes, and even gaps where their skin showed through! The acting. One character in particular stands out here, Prince Favian played by Jon-Paul Gates. I was just lost for words at the worst acting I have ever witnessed in my life. A quick look at his imdb profile shows he has acted in other things, how this is possible is beyond me. I wondered if the film makers had made it this bad on purpose, however it became clear that this is a serious movie. How they can claim it is from the same special effects team as Harry Potter is baffling. I do actually recommend watching this movie, as I have not laughed so much in a long time!

I think the production team did a much better job than their previous film, Knights of the Damned. Visual effects of the Dragons and the monster costumes were a visual feast and the fight choreography was adequate. Perhaps they had more budget this time. The acting of the principal performers is strong although some of the subordinate characters are weak. The story is now becoming full circle and I'm looking forward to seeing the Prince getting his just deserts.. Speaking of which, I thought Jon-Paul Gates was really awesome as Favian and the scenes between him and his father are intense. The look of the film is more glossy which makes me wonder if the producers shot on celluloid this time. Ok there are a few issues with modern day items not been removed but this did not adversely affect the entertainment factor and even blockbusters I see obvious continuity errors as well.

Is the acting good? no. Is it cheesy? Yes but, that it what makes it good. I saw this as a throwback to some of the truly horrid movies of the 80's and 90's. It is just good dumb fun and should not be judged on its artistic or cinematic quality of which there is very little. If you are bored and just want to kill some time just sit back, enjoy and have a good laugh.

The worst movie I've ever seen in my entire life! Like ever!
