Don't miss out on some of the greatest visual spectacles cinema has to offer: here on the big screen at Academy Theater!

Back of the box (Legend):
In an idyllic, sun-dappled forest, the pure-hearted Jack takes his true love Princess Lili to see a pair of unicorns frolicking at the forest’s edge. Little do they know that the Lord of Darkness has dispatched his minions to capture the unicorns and sever their horns so that he may plunge the world into everlasting night...

Back of the box (Conan the Barbarian):
In an ancient land, young Conan witnesses his family being slaughtered by an evil snake cult ransacking his village. Raised as a slave, the adult Conan rises up through the fighting pits, becoming an unparalleled and fearsome warrior. Unexpectedly freed, Conan and his companions – two fighters, Subotai and Valeria, as well as a Wizard – are enlisted by King Osric to free his daughter from the hypnotic clutches of the same cult that murdered Conan’s family long ago.

Back of the box (Excalibur):
Behold, the Sword of Power! Excalibur! Forged when the world was young, and bird, beast and flower were one with man and death was but a dream... A journey into the wonders and horrors of the imagination, this is the story of Arthur, the knights of the round table, the golden age of Camelot, the quest for the Holy Grail and of course, the wizard, Merlin.

Back of the box (Labyrinth):
Frustrated with babysitting on yet another weekend night, Sarah, a teenager with an active imagination, summons the Goblins to take her baby stepbrother away. Thus, Sarah must follow him into a fantastical world to rescue him from the clutches of the nefarious Goblin King...
