Undescribable Perfection

Fresh and Exciting

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

This is one of the worst pieces of animation out there. The drawing style is horrible, that the voice-acting sounds like it's done by middle-school boys trying to be scary and the plot and humour, or lack thereof, is simply awful. They can label it as a spoof of the sword and sorcery genre as much as they want, but it doesn't change the fact that it's just bad. Best enjoyed after a major head trauma or severe mental retardation. Avoid at all costs.

This 23-minute short film was written and directed by Aaron Springer, one of the driving forces behind Spongebob Squarepants, back in 2006. It got never picked up for its own show, but has constantly risen in popularity since then. It's a good piece of adult animation centering on a massive male fighter named Korgoth who just wants to have a drink at the pub, but is tricked into a trap when offered a huge meal with an old acquaintance. The meal contained a stomach virus and, in order to be given the antidote, Korgoth has to go to a supposedly dead magician's castle and steal a golden goblin statue for his acquaintance. So he does and we get to follow him on his journey, which is packed with obscenities, graphic violence, murder and, of course, large-breasted damsels in distress wearing almost nothing.All in all, it's a pretty good half hour of comedy and animation. I'm not too tempted to watch it again anytime soon, but i'd definitely be willing to give a show centering on Korgoth a fair chance. Maybe the better idea may even be a feature film. I'm sure there's lots of adventures that could be written for the hero. Recommended, but definitely not for children or the easily-offended.

Korgoth of Barbaria is a fresh new adult swim cartoon. The pilot episode shows us what we are in for! This show's fight scenes are gruesome and often hilarious! Korgoth is the total bad ass barbarian that fears no one, and drinks like a fish. Korgoth fights extremely all-out! From ripping people's faces off to slicing others completely in half! Bottom line, the violence is WAY over the top, but fun to watch! Just remember, this is on Adult Swim for a reason! I look forward to more Korgoth! The Last Word: Korgoth rules! A man's show with a manly hero. I will buy the season 1 DVD as soon as it's available! Don't miss this! BTW, the music rules!

Korgoth of Barbaria's pilot episode is extremely impressive. The animation is great.The pilot episode displays a whole lot violence, if it's either Korgoth slicing people with the giant axe or him setting ripped up people on fire. The theme song is a great thrash metal piece, and the show is filled with lots of violence, considering it's from a writer from that kid-friendly cartoon Spongebob.Jam-packed with gore and an awesome plot(it's about a post-apocalyptic world and Korgoth is from the North and he must fight evil) with really good animation.All in all, a 9.6, a great cartoon, hope more episodes come. I mean, if "Superjail" got instantly picked up for a show, how come this didn't? (I've got nothing against "Superjail", but this needs to be picked up too, Adult Swim says you can't handle more than one. Is that so?)
