There is a truck a few seconds into the trailer. I guess they forgot to mask it or edit it out.

There are flames on the front. I think it's supposed to be some kind of armoured wagon but it's clearly a disguised truck of some kind.

Perhaps they are setting this in a fantasy world where sword and sorcery exists with modern technology. :P

Mad Max didn't like that

It will be interesting to compare this one to the original. I have no idea how accurate it was overall to books Etc. But the 1980s star power on display on the 1st. Ernie Reyes jr, Arnold schwarzenegger, and Brigitte Nielsen. While not necessarily perfect for the roles was definitely fun. It always came off as another Conan movie with Arnold basically reprising a similar role.

It pretty much is a Conan movie, she came from his stories

Yes though ironically Arnie's character wasn't. Still watched it plenty when I was younger.

For the plot.

The wide angle shots don't look bad, but the close ups look like an amateur movie shot on a smart phone.

Meh...
