    Does anybody know this film I am vaguely referring to?

    Not the sexiest title for a thread but I need your help denizens of TFF. For quite some time I've been looking for the name of a film I saw a long, long time ago (but not in a galaxy far, far away). I don't have much to go off but what my mind can recall from those younger days.

    1.) I am pretty certain that this film is of the sword and sorcery genre.

    2.) I remember the antangonist, a middle-aged woman (probably a queen or sorceress or both), having her slaves/servants dipped in a vat of gold. They [the slaves/servants] would then be pulled out and be solid gold statues. This is what I remember most clearly because it stands out.

    As I've said it is not much but if anyone here knows what film I'm talking about I would greatly appreciate if you told me. I would like to re-watch to see if it is any good (from my older perspective). Thanks.

    Re: Does anybody know this film I am vaguely referring to?

    I don't think I've seen that one.

    Is it an animated film?
    Any information on how famous it is, the makers, country of origin, year it was made in?

    I found this movie: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_War..._The_Sorceress
    But I doubt it is the one you saw as a kid. Wikipedia says: "It is noted chiefly for containing extensive nudity and violence, being one of the more extreme examples of the sword-and-sorcery genre."

    Any additional info you can give us could help.

    Or even an estimate of what year/how old you were when you saw it. Process of elimination. I did try looking a bit, no luck so far. Course I was only scanning titles, not looking into every summary. Just too many to go through, alas.

    Ah. Sorry about that.

    It's a live-action flilm probably around the 1970s-80s. I don't know who made the film or the country of origin. I watched it on television when I was very young; it was anywhere from 10 + years ago. I have checked the summaries of sword and sorcery movies on wiki, however, none of them mention the slaves/servants being dipped in gold. I've tried "googling" it with variations but have not come up with anything.

    I've also looked a little bit for a sword and sorcery film fan/forum; I would ask them if they knew what I was talking about, however, I did not find any such site. I'll keep looking though.
