Why you should watch Ridley Scott's Legend - Retro Gems

I am kicking off a new series of videos! Retro Gems.
In these videos, I’m picking a movie, a series, or even a game that I think is old enough to be considered retro and that is underappreciated in my opinion. Or that I want to talk about…
For this first video in this series, I want to talk about a movie that both fascinated and scared me as a kid. Ridley Scott’s Legend.
Legend was a 1985 fantasy movie directed by Ridley Scott and starring Tom Cruise and Tim Curry. A production that had its fair share of challenges and setbacks, but that ended up inspiring a lot of other creators. Including myself.

Tim Curry is INCREDIBLE in this movie!

Legend is great! The swamp witch was so cool. I don't know her original name, but "Sumpf-Marie Schwabbelschwamm" (german name) is one of the greatest names i've ever heard.
All of the costumes from this movie are so great. ❤️‍🔥
Edit: Meg Mucklebones is also a cool name.

It is a cool name indeed :)

I have never seen or heard of this movie, but the plot sounds interesting. Might have to add it to my long list of "Watch Later" movies xD I like this new video series! GREAT VIDEO!!!

[@geekandplunder]

Definitely watch it Kobe!

Awesome video! I've seen Legend a bunch of times over the years but will need to have another look now I know about the Director's cut. Really appreciated the behind-the-scenes info you provided - the studio burned down?!! Adding your personal impressions seeing it as a kid turned this from just another review into something more interesting. Thanks. Cheers!
