It was original D&D, not AD&D.
Does the Japanese D&D Book look like this?

I'm surprised that Parn isn't a lower level than everybody else. I definitely get the impression he is when watching the movie.
In OD&D, there was no minimum stat requirement to cast spells, so no worries with the two 13's and a 12 for the spellcasters.
Looking back, I wish there were a Halfling in the story. Halfling is the only class that wasn't represented in the movie, and my first character was a Halfling.

My friends started me out as a Halfing Rogue and died, after years of losing characters I manage to get a Human Barbarian to 12th level.For some reason People like him they always want him in the game.

RotLW is using basic D&D characters. No Barbarians, no Halfling Rogues.
Just Fighters, Halflings, and Thieves.

They were introduced in Advanced Dungeons & Dragons. Not (just plain ol') Dungeons & Dragons.
