After years of waiting Red Sonja finally made it to my TV via the Roku system of streaming channels.
It has been a long hard road.
In 2008, Robert Rodriguezwas working on a version that would have starred Rose McGowan as the titular character. By 2009, however, the Rodriguez project had been scrapped.
After many twists and turns the project landed in the lap of director M.J.Bassett. By luck Bassett is a fan of Robert E. Howard who created Red Sonja. Bassett also directed the excellent Howard movie adaption of Solomon Kane.
Someone feed that girl a sandwich.
The Italian actress Matilda Lutz was miscast as Sonja.Lutz is perhaps 90 pounds soaking wet. She is scrawny, not the voluptuous Sonja we expected.
She did a decent job in the bloody and brutal action thriller film Revenge.
Lutz prepared for the role by reading Red Sonja comics and intentionally avoided watching the 1985 film. She also worked hard withintense sword training in Bulgaria.
Overall the film is a good B Movie. Sit down with a bowl of popcorn and enjoy.
The story line involved the Muslim siege of Vienna in 1529. Sonja stood side-by-side with male knights on the walls of Vienna fighting against the Turks and for Western Civilization.
Red Sonja was brought back to life by writer Roy Thomas and artist Barry Windsor-Smith for Marvel Comics in 1973, inspired by Robert E. Howard's character Red Sonya of Rogatino.
RED Sonja WILL Not CATER to the MALE Gaze? So who is it FOR!?
