Help me match the fighters...

I know who Colwyn, Torquil, Kegan, Rhun, Bardolph and Oswyn are but not sure on the others. What is the name of the first fighter to die at the swamp? He had a sort of bow and arrow as a weapon. The guy who died in the quicksand, I always thought that was Nennog but apparently it's Menno? Then there are the two guys with the whips. One dies as soon as they get into the fortress. The other falls off the massive bridge a few minutes later.

Additionally who do you think were the best bandits/most deserving to survive?

Darro(Andy Bradford) is the one who dies first in the swamp. Menno (Bill Weston) is the one who dies in the quicksand. Gerard Naprous(Quain) is the guy with the whip who dies right after Rhun and he also stands up on the horse riding it to the Black Fortress. Nennog(Bronco McLoughlin) is the one who gets shot off the bridge. As to who should have survived well I think Bardolph could have easily if he didn't go for his dagger

Thanks for that Geoffrey. Love this movie. A childhood favourite. When playing with other kids they were like "what shall we play? Ghostbusters, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles?" and I'm like "How about Krull?" Haha say what?

Your welcome! I love this movie too! I wish some of the bandits made it but they didn't. They made the movie if you ask me

I always wanted Kegan (Liam Neeson) to survive and to this day it annoys me they spared Todd Carty instead.

Well I think out of all who died. Bardolph should have lived. But somebody I suppose had to die in the wall of spikes :) I always felt sorry for the bandits throughout the film considering they are the only ones who died besides Rell. Oswyn lived because well he made it :) He was also a young man. I'm glad he lived. Kegan, yes I sure wish he would have survived but then I dunno it would of been really ovious of who was going to make it considering he was Torquil's best friend and all. But yes Kegan was a kick ass guy! Loved him! I liked all of the bandits! Especially Quain and Nennog the two guys with the whips. They were great!

I thought it was also sad when Rhun died. I saw a screening of Krull before the movie came out and his death scene was longer and he had dialogue about his wives. As he was dying he said "Tell Lona that I loved her and she was my favorite...." Then right when it looked like he was going to die he suddenly perked up and said "Tell Merith that I loved HER and SHE was my favorite....I really did love them all you know."

Since you said you were a fan of Kagen I thought you might find that interesting.
