We aren't sure who was clamoring for an update to the defunct Deathstalker series other than Patton Oswalt (who appears in this sequel), but the fantasy reboot actually got made, and is out next month in all its cheesy glory. This go-around, actor Daniel Bernhardt (Logan, John Wick,Nobody) assumes the mantle as the Schwarzenegger-esque title character. Director Steven Kostanski (The Void, Psycho Goreman) takes the helm in a collaboration between distributor Shout! Studios, production company BerserkerGang, and comic book publisher Vault Comics. The film sees the hero return to fight the Dreadites in a fantasy universe that looks like it comes straight off the cover of a vintage heavy metal album. That last bit is way more important than it initially seems.
