A darkly comedic sword-and-sorcery romp that gleefully subverts fantasy tropes through satirical excess and macabre whimsy.

A powerful swordsman known as Deathstalker recovers a cursed amulet from a corpse-strewn battlefield. Marked by dark magic and hunted by monstrous assassins, he must face the rising evil and break the curse.
