Although Tarkan Vs. the Vikings is filled with the cheapest costumes imaginable, cardboard sets, inept special effects, and cheesy monsters, it's the best Turkish movie we've ever seen from the '60s or '70s. It really does have that kind of "big epic-spectacle film" feel to it. And it's great fun in spite of all its obvious (sometimes really obvious) weaknesses. The story centers around a vicious Viking miscreant who wants to rule all of Vikingdom and get his lustful hands on a Hun ruler's...
