Just listened to the audio samples.  This is right up my alley.

[Teasing the Korean]

This morning, I bought this and received the download link via e-mail instantly.  Based on what I'm hearing thus far, I would describe this as a combination lush orchestral exotica with TV cop show funk beds, seasoned with synths, electric piano, and Latin percussion. Lots of moody dramatic passages along the way.  It is stereo, but there is distortion on some tracks. It may have been mastered from Gil's personal copy.  

A few tracks with that dated, high-pitched synth "ping" sound that was in vogue on funk records circa 1980.

Is it good?

If '70s  U.S. TV scoring meets your criteria for "good," then yes.

OMG, I clicked on the link and the graphics are something else! There's a (semi-)local cinema which loves to screen this kind of thing. Wonder if the film is available.

There's a 13-minute sound sample on youtube: 

 

There's something slightly odd about the archer(ess?) in the foreground...🤣

You can purchase a DVD copy on amazon. That's a brave archeress putting up with a cobra coiled around her leg!

Thanks, but I can watch a dubbed (into Tamil 😁) version, albeit with weird aspect ratio, for free on youtube.

Well, you be you!

Hey, it's mostly for the soundtrack. I can't imagine the English dialogue would be too scintillating.
