Nudity, especially children, was more European art film. No one put nudity other than adult female nudity in low-budget schlock. And who is attracted to these movies because of that? No, don't answer these questions,<br /><br />Loincloths were standard male attire, even in Arctic settings.<br /><br />I have to say, the Barbarian Bros added a novel twist. The sole female character is their sister, so no one of the trio can be sexually involved with each other.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-814549419838495324.post-48937944401329002202021-08-28T18:37:57.989-04:002021-08-28T18:37:57.989-04:00I need to re-watch "The Beastmaster" bec...I need to re-watch "The Beastmaster" because I had totally forgotten about young prince Tal - I guess I only had eyes for Marc Singer.

That was ...I think the fad really began in the 70s. That was the period of Howard and Lovecraft pastiches and Frank Frazetta, Boris Vallejo, Julie Bell, and their imitators. The 80s gave us the Conan movie, to be sure, but the 70s gave us D&D, which has a barbarian class just so you can be Conan.<br /><br />Which makes me think of PC RPGs (Ultima III had a barbarian class which was very true to Conan: It's a hybrid fighter/thief.) which spawned JRPGs. There's some gay-vague in a few of those.
