Ronal the barbarian int trailer 2
Ronal the Barbarian (Danish: Ronal barbaren) is a 2011 Danish adult stereoscopic computer animation feature film directed by Thorbjørn Christoffersen, Kresten Vestbjerg Andersen and Philip Einstein Lipski. It is their third cinema feature following Terkel in Trouble and Journey to Saturn, produced by Einstein Film with the support of the Danish Film Institute, TV 2, distributor Nordisk Film and Nordisk Film & TV Fond. It is a comedic fantasy adventure which parodies the barbarians and other stereotypes of sword and sorcery fiction, role-playing games and films such as Conan the Barbarian and the Dungeons & Dragons class, with nods towards the 1980s fantasy boom and its association with traditional heavy metal. It was released in Denmark on September 29, 2011.

Plot Synopsis
Welcome to the world of Metalonia, where we meet the Barbarians - a fierce and ever battle-hungry tribe of muscle-worshipping warriors with strict codes for epilation, chaps and piercings. And then there is Ronal, the tribe weakling and laughing stock. Ronal is more or less hopeless - he even knows how to read, but serious barbarian business like wielding (or even lifting) a sword, kicking orcs around or toning the muscles with oil is completely lost on him, and everybody but his uncle has given up on him - even himself.
Until one fateful evening the village is surprise attacked (Ronal had the watch duty but had no lungs to sound the alarm horn) and overrun by the massive forces of the evil Lord Volcazar, who dreams of world domination. All barbarians are kidnapped except Ronal, who suddenly must rise to the challenge and save the barbarians - and the entire world from Volcazar's evil plans.
So Ronal reluctantly trudges off on a quest, and picks up company soon enough: the chubby harper Aliberth (who's mainly there to get laid), the fierce and deadly shield maid Zandra and the metrosexual and narcissistic elf Elric. Together they must face deadly fairies with poison arrows, voluptuous bimbo-Amazons and many other perils before they can finally face Lord Volcazar.
