Plots: A young man, armed with a magical bow and arrows, embarks on a mystical journey through a mystical land to rid it of all evil and joins forces with an outlaw to take down an evil witch bent on claiming the magic bow for evil. Italian sword and sorcery epic from splatter director Lucio Fulci loosely inspired from the Hercules mythos about two warriors on a quest and a vengeful demon who throws all kinds of nasty creatures along the way to fill scenes of gory violence. A hero’s journey following the saga of a nunchuck-wielding animal-rights activist looking for companionship while obeying dogma that all men are enemies, and his naive man-child sidekick who is armed with an enchanted bow capable of unleashing the power of the Sun once he attains manhood. They travel a land rife with fog and werewolves, in the foul grip of a clothes eschewing sorceress who bathes in snakes to promote visions of her own demise. Blood, breasts, and beasts abound in this trial of two men battling powerful forces of evil in savage, mystical lands.
