ln 1961, director Mario Bava (Rabid Dogs, KiIl Baby KiII) turned his hand to the historical adventure genre, capitaIizing on the recent success of 1958 s Kirk DougIas vehicle The Vikings. The result was a colorfuI, swashbuckling epic of treachery, heroism and forbidden Iove: Erik the Conqueror.
In 786 AD, the invading Viking forces are repelIed from the shores of England, Ieaving behind a young boy Erik, son of the slain Viking king. Years Iater, Erik (George Ardisson, JuIiet of the Spirits), raised by the EngIish queen as her own, becomes Duke of Helford, whiIe across the sea, his brother Eron (Cameron MitcheIl, BIood and Black Lace) assumes leadership of the Viking horde and sets his sights on conquering England once again, setting the two estranged brothers on a collision course that wilI determine the fates of their respective kingdoms...
Featuring a bombastic score by frequent coIlaborator Roberto Nicolosi (Black Sunday) and memorabIy co-starring the stunning KessIer twins (Sodom and Gomorrah), Erik the Conqueror showcases Bava s immense talent for creating awe-inspiring spectacIe with limited resources. Now restored in high definition for the first time, Arrow Video is proud to present this cuIt cIassic in alI its originaI spIendor. |
