The Norseman (1978)
1/10
Worst? Impiossible !!!
21 September 2006
The only explanation for this product to ever have been made is that director and actors where on vacation in some Caribbean beach and just for fun they decided to make a movie with one of them's hand camera.

Besides a plot neither better nor worse than others we have seen -Torvald is a viking prince sailing in search of his father captured by American Indians- the point with this "film" is that no one in it (director, actors and crew) shows the minimum interest or effort in getting somewhere. Producers, if there were any, definitely decided not spend a dollar in "The Norsman". There's no script, no settings, no music score, no backgrounds (except nature), no nothing.

The cast is cheap too. Lee Majors (Torvald) could never act and the same goes to Cornel Wilde (his sidekick Ragnar). Fine actors like Mel Ferrer (Torvald's father) and Jack Elam (some sort of wizard) were by then on their way back in their carriers and they don't even appear much.

No tension, no climax, no interest in what may happen, no nothing.

Probably the worst film ever in its genre. ¡Mama Mìa!!!
