Q: Is the mirror scene in "Conan the Destroyer" ripped off from "Enter the Dragon"?
It depends a lot on your point of view, but it's safe to say there are similarities.
We don't know if "Conan the Destroyer" (1984) director Richard Fleischer, or any of the film's various writers, had even seen the legendary martial arts flick "Enter the Dragon" (1973). However, the two movies do feature pretty similar showdowns with bad guys in halls of mirrors.
