I have to agree with that. I have the film in my DVD collection.
I wish someone would finally make a movie about the Trojan war with Greek gods involved - just like it was described in the Illiad.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

I saw this in the theater when it came out and eventually had the album memorized. Crazily enough, we even 'studied' the album in music class at the Catholic school I attended.
This was a time when we started having visits from Jesus Freaks as the powers that be thought we could relate to them. Good looking kids our own ages, or slightly older, who had been saved from some issue in life through their newfound love for all things Jesus.
I still watch the movie now and then. And, I still remember all the words to all the songs.

Aw, man, if we could have added those kind of movies, I would have volunteered Priestly Pukakke 4 to the list.

All my years in Catholic schools, I can think of one nun that I would call attractive. Most were in their black habits with either orthopedic shoes or Jesus sandals with their their stockings with the toes and heels...nearly as sexy as men in sandals and socks.
We certainly didn't have any cute little Flying Nun types...except perhaps Sr. Pat.

An exciting action film, although the story is not from any recognizable tale in Greek mythology.

The Passion of St Tibulous is a very good film but extremely hard to track down these days.
