BORN WITH THE COURAGE OF AN EAGLE, THE STRENGTH OF A BLACK TIGER, AND THE POWER OF A GOD.
Set in a wild and primitive world, The Beastmaster is the gripping tale of a mythical hero engaged in a life and death struggle with overwhelming forces of evil. Directed by Don Coscarelli (Phantasm) and filmed by Academy Award-winning cinematographer John Alcott (The Shining), it boasts spectacular sets, a top notch cast, and spine-tingling action!
Marc Singer (Watchers II) stars as Dar, the sole survivor of a Barbarian massacre, determined to take revenge. A golden warrior born with the courage of an eagle and the strength of a black panther, Dar must nevertheless face awesome enemies that threaten his destruction. At his side is Tanya Roberts (of "Charlie's Angels" fame), a heroic woman who battles the barbarians with fervor equal to Dar's own.
New horrors await them at every turn - a witch that crawls backwards across the ceiling, a race of cannibalistic bat men, and Rip Torn (Men in Black) as "Maxx", the high priest of a fiendish cult, whom Dar must meet - and destroy - if he is to survive. Though far out-numbered, the forces of good are abetted by a supernatural secret - revealed to you in the heart-pounding climax of THE BEASTMASTER!
