Mythica 5: The Godslayer (2016)

Director: John Lyde

Starring: Melanie Stone, Adam Johnson, Jake Stormoen, Nicola Posener, Matthew Mercer

As the Lich King’s zombie legions ravage the world, Marek, a cursed young sorceress, embarks on a quest to obtain a weapon from the gods, with her friend Dagen, a self-serving half-elf rogue. But when she joins her sworn enemy in a desperate attempt to save the world, she must recover the good in herself before her friends are all dead, and defeat the Lich King before the gods are destroyed and the world forever enslaved.

It is difficult to believe the same director who turned Mythica 4 into a comedy made Mythica 5 the incredible film that it is. This is the fifth and final film in the series, and by far the most serious and interesting. We learn so much about the characters and where they come from, and why they are on this quest. The film was actually quite scary at times. It is a vast improvement on Mythica 4 and a fulfilling grand finale. Director John Lyden really treated this final film with respect. The visuals are once again very good. The ending was completely unexpected.

‘Mythica’ was indeed a fun and exciting series and I definitely would like to watch the entire series again. Well done!
