  • Complete Monster: Traigon fathers a child with the intention of sacrificing it to his god. When he learns his wife gave birth to twins, unable to tell who is the firstborn, Traigon tortures his wife so bad she is fatally wounded before being driven off and his daughters taken by the mage Krona. Years later, hunting his children, Traigon has his men slaughter a village, and runs his lands as a nightmarish dystopia where people are frequently tortured and executed. Traigon tries to kill the ally of his allies, Erlick, by having him impaled with a sharp stake, only relenting when he realizes he can use Erlick to "flavor" a sacrifice by having him sleep with one of Traigon's daughters. Eventually betraying and sacrificing one of his allies, Traigon attempts to murder his children to summon his master and dominate the world.
  • Ham and Cheese: It's clear that every actor in the film is taking it about as seriously as the audience (especially Traigon), resulting in some hilariously fun and over-the-top moments.
  • Hilarious in Hindsight:
    • If you happened to see Wizards of the Lost Kingdom before this one, and especially if you saw the MST3K version, it can be a lot of fun spotting which parts of this movie Roger Corman used to pad out that one.
    • The road leading into the Forbidden Forest looks almost identical to the road where Frodo and his friends first encounter the Nazgul in The Fellowship of the Ring.
