Continuity mistake: In the scene when Conan's mother is killed, we see her using both hands to hold her sword toward Thulsa Doom and his men. The camera cuts to young Conan and he is holding her right hand. When the camera cuts back to her, she is holding the sword with both hands again.

Suggested correction: It's not an inmediate shot, there's plenty of time in between for her to change the grip.
King Osric: What daring! What outrageousness! What insolence! What arrogance... I salute you.
Trivia: Arnold Schwarzenegger did his own stunts, as a believable stunt double could not be found.
