Masters of the Universe with critic Scott J. Davis | The Pick of the Flicks Podcast #74

April 15, 2020 by Tom Beasley

On The Pick of the Flicks Podcast, a different guest drops in every week to chat about their favourite film. This week, film critic and interviewer Scott J. Davis discusses the high camp and nostalgia of the 1980s cult fantasy Masters of the Universe…

On this week’s episode of The Pick of the Flicks Podcast, film critic Scott J. Davis takes a journey into childhood nostalgia to discuss the 1987 version of Masters of the Universe, starring Dolph Lundgren as He-Man. We chat about the make-em-cheap world of Cannon Films, Frank Langella’s exquisite thesping as Skeletor and the prospect of a modern day version of He-Man on the big screen.
