A nicely done keen fantasy that has a combination of live actors traced with animation ( Rotoscoping), it’s Ralph Bakshi’s second best movie next to “American Pop” and “Wizards” but certainly better than his version of “Lord of the Rings”. The movie is also designed by celebrated artist Frank Farzetta ( whom did covers to Tarzan books, Conan The Barbarian and Vampirella) with some generous animation & Coloring especially the impressive rotoscopic stuff and a radiant hottie for the guys there.
This 2-disc little edition has mountainous report & Sound quality, a commentary by director Ralph Bakshi, featurettes, a photo gallery, trailer and the second disc has a documentary on Frank Farzetta and his life.

Hey folks, before I start choose a sight at the front hide. Eye the great guy on top, tremendous muscles, menacing grin, stout axe? His name’s Dusky Wolf, and he is awesome. More on him later.
“Fire and Ice” is a film by Ralph Bakshi, known for films like “Fritz the Cat,” “Wizards,” and other enchanting classics that never seem to catch their proper repute. This film came out shortly after “American Pop” and unfortunately did not perform too considerable money at the box office. Watching the film, I really can’t view why. This was one of the most palatable fantasy films I’ve seen in years. The film was a co-creation of Ralph Bakshi and Frank Frazetta, one of the most distinguished illustrators in the 20th century. As Bakshi says in commentaries and interviews on the DVD, making a film completely like a Frazetta painting would have been impossible, but he wanted to retract that atmosphere as best he could. In fact Frazetta fans will explore many easily recognizable homages in the film, particularly “The Death Bringer.” The state is simple enough – injurious wizard Nekron (who is basically Emperor Palpatine in his teen days) is tantalizing a powerful glacier across the land, conquering and destroying anything in his path. As he approaches Firekeep, last bastion of resistance, his mother kidnaps the Princess Tygra to give Nekron a mate and bring Firekeep to the discussion table. Mixed into this location are Larn, lone survivor of a village destroyed by Nekron’s glacier who falls for Tygra, and Unlit Wolf, a mysterious figure following Parn who is after Nekron and is also awesome.
Now, “Fire and Ice” was rotoscoped, and if you’ve seen Bakshi’s “Lord of the Rings” you’re probably cringing. However, do not awe – the tinted live-action orcs are long gone. This is a complete gripping film, and every one is fully engaging. I might also add that they are very well racy, and even though live action was broken-down to support in keeping things like a Frank Frazetta painting it was not relied upon. Many creatures, such as the dragons (provocative by a young Peter Cheung) and the giant lizard were exciting normally. Plus, looking at the staunch life actors can clue you in on unbiased how many liberties the animators took in moderating character designs. You reflect Tygra was that well endowed in right life? Assume again! And the neanderthals were in fact normal guys tantalizing about with their characteristics added later. (remembering the cheap outfits of the orcs in “Lord of the Rings,” I deem we can be thankful for that) As an additional brand, guess who did all the background artwork? Two young guys original out of college known as…James Gurney and Thomas Kinkade. That’s apt, the guys who went on to do “Dinotopia” and uh…lighthouses…got their inaugurate doing this film.
It’s far from a completely perfect film – some of the dialogue is a tad campy. You view those scenes between Padme and Anakin on the balcony in Episode III were dreadful? Catch a gape at the scenes between Tygra and Parn in the ruins. But listen, this is everything a fantasy film SHOULD be. Giant lizards, sword fights, buff guys, repugnant guys, lesbian witches, elegant women in bikinis, exquisite women in bikinis being kidnapped by grisly guys, buff guys killing plain guys, frightening guys getting trampled by giant lizards…this film has it all. It also has a gargantuan cast, particularly Nekron and Dim Wolf. Nekron is a dirty bastard incarnate, who has unlimited powers and knows it, smugly ticking off other characters he knows he can easily beat up. For example, when haughty Prince Taro of Firekeep goes with an entourage to vow with him and accept Tygra help, Nekron grins and states…
Nekron: “I must admit that at first the plan of mating with your sister filled me with revulsion. Perhaps I should reconsider…she is, after all, not entirely unattractive, as lesser beings go.”
This is followed by the Prince Taro trying to waste Nekron, only to be forced by Nekron to extinguish his believe men and then himself. Didn’t I say he was base?
But now this brings me to the absolute hands down best character of the whole film: Shadowy Wolf. As previously stated, Black Wolf is awesome. Neanderthals in this movie should really be called “Shadowy Wolf fodder” as he takes out about half of Nekron’s army during the course of the film. Lurking in the fog, tossing two rocks at once, using their hold weapons against them, nothing can finish this guy. Although Larn is technically the hero, Unlit Wolf is definately the proper man of action, embodying the Death Dealer. He also has one of the best lines in the movie when Larn won’t go after Tygra while Sunless Wolf distracts the neanderthals.
Dark Wolf: “Go!”
Larn: “No!”
Dark Wolf: *menacing scowl* “THE HELL YOU WON’T!” *tosses Larn off a cliff*
The DVD itself is equally impressive. It’s a two-DVD station, with the first DVD the film along with documentaries about the film, pictures of the live action sequences and animation techniques, and a commentary by Ralph Bakshi. The second DVD is an hour and a half documentary on the life of Frank Frazetta and the influence of his artwork, and is a gracious glimpse for any one eager in art.
This was well worth the engage. Even if you’re not an avid Ralph Bakshi or Frank Frazetta fan, definately give this film a check out. Like I said, it’s not an involving classic, it’s unbiased a lot of fun.
