   The real Dark Ages must have been a time of ignorance, tyranny, and superstition. And its heroes must have been something like the two young heroes of “Dragonslayer,” Peter MacNicol and Caitlin Clarke, both looking about fifteen years old. In a time of disease, plague, and epidemic, fifteen was old. Advertisement.

   There is a dark quality to Dragonslayer, but not so much as to deter the less hearty film enthusiast, just enough to tip the scale from a typical Disney fluff film to a quality fantasy epic. There is also some welcomed dry British humor in this film that offsets Dragonslayer's darker tones.

   Mar 3, 2021 · On the other hand, my favorite dragon movie is Matthew Robbins’ “ Dragonslayer ” (1981), which would scare the crap out of my little girl and won’t be seen in my household for some time. “Dragonslayer” is set during the Dark Ages and pulls us in with Alex North’s muscular, dread-inducing score.

   Is 'Dragonslayer' a good movie?

   • The sorcerer's apprentice. "Dragonslayer" is a film that was a huge box office disappointment for Paramount and Disney and the film lost millions. It's a real shame, as the movie was ahead of its time and was excellent in many ways....and too few saw it on the big screen, though I did....and decided to try watching it again tonight.

   Was 'Dragonslayer' made in 81?

   • The "Dragonheart" dragon's wings are horribly proportioned to it's body. But "Dragonslayer" got it right, a well-proportioned, frightening dragon that is the centerpiece of the film. And it was made in '81! If another dragon film is ever made, it would behoove the filmmakers to take a serious look at "Dragonslayer." 8 out of 10.

   How realistic is Dragonslayer?

   • With Disney at the helm, they spared no expense for this fantasy epic. The special effects are mind blowing for their time. The dragon in Dragonslayer is probably the most realistic dragon ever to be put on celluloid, far better than any CGI dragon in my opinion. I have no idea in fact how they could have made this dragon so realistic in 1981.

   Is 'Dragonslayer' a 'Pete's Dragon' movie?

   • Specifically, a “Paramount Pictures/ Walt Disney Productions” film and nothing like “Pete’s Dragon” (1977), either. “Dragonslayer” is violent, intense and wondrous, the kind of uncompromised, large-scale fantasy you’d never see today (it felt even rougher and more progressive than “Clash of the Titans” and “Excalibur,” both released the same year).
