The recent Thor and Loki movie provides the inspiration for today's mfasa pick. Kirk Douglas and Tony Curtis play warring brothers, Ernest Borgnine plays their viking leader patriarch while Janet Leigh(Mrs. Tony Curtis at the time) plays the beautiful damsel in distress both brothers love. A fun, classic adventure of the time period.

I love the nose guards on their helmets. That is a cool poster.
We did watch The Viking series. It was one of the few we watched regularly. I wonder if it will continue. The opening credits was especially good. I wish that show and Lord of the Rings were still on.

This was posted a few months ago and I agree it is ‘fairly’ entertaining. Especially the scenes where the Viking rape the young girls.

Seen it. Hard to take Kirk Douglas seriously as a Viking but it's a good popcorn movie. Easy way to blow a couple idle hours.

The Vikings is a fun movie.
Hardly great cinema — but still head and shoulders above today’s “superhero” movies.

Curtis and Douglas are not brothers in the movie. Curtis is a slave. Douglas it the son of the local Norse lord.

SPOILER ALERT - the Vikings choke at the end and lose the Super Bowl.

Erik: “And you, Sven, aren’t you afraid of crossing the Rainbow Bridge to Asgaard?”
Sven the Berserk: “I will join my grandfather there!”
Thorfinn Skullsplitter: “He’s not in Valhalla! He died of old age.”
I like my Viking movies with a bit more John Cleese than the others;

This was a bad afternoon for movies - “the Last Picture Show” from 2 to 5 on COZI and the best of the best “Casablanca” from 4 to 6 on TCM - and in the middle of it all the lovely Michael and Irene say goodbye scene from “The Perfect Storm” on the TVGuide channel - now when am I going to get my leaves raked???....
