How bad is it? It manages to take the bad Ator series to new depths of ineptitude.
Should you see it? Yes - after seeing the other Ator films and Troll 2.
I found the Ator series of films to be just good enough that they didn't quite make the so-bad-it's-good category, but this, the last of the series, more than qualifies. First of all, Ator dies in the first scene and is replaced by his son Ator - neither is played by Miles O'Keeffe, who played Ator in the other films. The son needs his father's sword to take his role, so he searches for it and in the process runs across dragons, wizards, a goblin (left-over from Troll 2) that gets cleaved in two, a two-headed robot... and he finds the sword in 20 minutes in the cave he lives in under a rock. There's also a love story and some embarrassing costumes. The film just ends when it runs out of things to do.
