I remember this too in benoni....i lived in rynsoord!

Downloading this as I remember them filming this movie in my hometown in Benoni. There happened to be a real fire on the set during filming. We later called the place Gor Castle after the movie production :)))) i have never watched this movie, but coming across this, I definitely will. Thanks

@ladirection... in fairness, the books didn't start off that way. While there was always a tone of misogyny and BDSM, the first book was more of a straight 'swords & sandals' fantasy book. They didn't really become what they're infamously known for until several books into the saga. The film's trashy fun, but mostly because it's just bad.
