Conan the Barbarian
Enter an age undreamed of
Directed by Marcus Nispel
Produced by Dark Horse Entertainment, Nu Image
A high-octane sword-and-sorcery action film driven by revenge and spectacle, with graphic violence and dark fantasy elements but little emotional depth or nuance.
A quest that begins as a personal vendetta for the fierce Cimmerian warrior soon turns into an epic battle against hulking rivals, horrific monsters, and impossible odds, as Conan realizes he is the only hope of saving the great nations of Hyboria from an encroaching reign of supernatural evil.
