Arthur the King 1953 Had Dyan Cannon, Cadice Bergen Malcome McDoowell and Liam Neeson . Originally saw and ad for it. is upcoming in the tV guide and then, for some reason , the networked pulled it . I finally got see it years later. It was pretty wretched stuff but it was entertaining it is own way . It had two cheesy monsters, one the was an Undead Knight , And there was a intend to be menacing dragon that wasn't which looked vaguely like an evil skinny version of H R Puffen Stuff .

I saw this many many years ago. It was on some rainy Sunday afternoon. I actually quite enjoyed it even though I recognized how awful it was in parts.

Oh boy Dyan Cannon--hard to think of anyone less suited to be in an Arthurian tale.
Her laugh would cause Merlin to go into hibernation.

It did have entertainment value.
