Anyone else remember this? Richard Pryor played the Thief, in this made-for-TV movie... An old archer, with the magical Longbow, Elb, passed it on to his apprentice... and it killed him. Some Richard-Hatch-look-alike starred as the Apprentice/Archer, who was in love with "The Sorceress". The Empire was a bunch of Lizardoid guys in make-up, and Elb spat what looked like electrical discharges.
Apparently, it was supposed to be a pilot episode for a series that never caught on. Since it aired, years ago, I haven't been able to find it. I understand that it came out both as "The Archer", and also as "Escape from the Empire". Does anyone else remember this, have any more info on it, or know where it can be found on video/DVD?
