Ator the Blade Master


 

"Ator the Blade Master" is a sequel to "Ator the Fighting Eagle".  Also called "Ator the Invincible" and "The Blade Master". It's an Italian fantasy film directed by Joe D'Amato and the stars include Miles O'Keefe, Lisa Foster and David Brandon. 

Some years have passed since the ending of the first film and we learn that Ator's bride passed away a long time ago, but now he's in the East under the training of a new mystic fighter named Thong! We learn that Thong doesn't speak but is a very ferocious individual. The former great master of Ator is ill and keeps a mystical weapon, but is under threat from an evil lord and his henchmen. 

He encounters cannibalistic cavemen, ghosts and a giant snake god that devours humans. There are some amusing moments, flamboyant costumes and weird timeslips! Ator's time has always been, what looked like, set during the Bronze Age, except that this second film features Medieval castles and a modern hang glider... This film is severely lacking in common sense, which is what made the first film so enjoyable. Ator is disappointing in this one.  

This film gets a mouldy cheese rating of 2/10.
