A straightforward sword-and-sorcery adventure built on muscle-bound heroics, magical threats, and a rescue quest, with moderate action and fantastical elements but little emotional depth.

Muscle-bound Ator and his mute Asian sidekick travel from the ends of the Earth to save his aged mentor from the evil mustachioed Zor.
