161. Masters of the Universe (1987)

This week, we review Masters of the Universe (1987), Gary Goddard’s sci-fi fantasy cult classic that blasts He-Man from Eternia straight into suburban Earth. Dolph Lundgren stars as the mighty He-Man, squaring off against Frank Langella’s gloriously theatrical Skeletor in a battle for the cosmic key — and the fate of the universe. With its wild mix of swords, lasers, synth scores, and fish-out-of-water hijinks, this Cannon Films production reimagines the beloved Mattel toy line with a decidedly '80s flair.

Is it By the Power of Grayskull or just a powerfully bad idea? Listen on to find out!
