Let's see I recall a blonde chap who was an ranger, the coward warrior,  
the black acrobat, the red-head thief, the useless magician,... oh yeah  
and the young barbarian. They were transported while on a fairground ride  
by the Dungeon Master, whom I recall was a red-robed midget and spoke in  
riddles, to fight some pale-skinned guy representing the forces of evil,  
oh and there was a dragon in it to; I prefered Dangermouse.

Oh I don't know the scenes with Kristen Wilson or Zoe McLellan had some  
small appeal, and anything starring Richard O'Brien can't be competely bad  
:-)
