A centuries-old man is embroiled in a sword-fight between other immortals.
This is one of those movies which forged my young self, but I cannot recommend to others. It definitely feels dated, and I doubt its ideas would be particularly shaping to others compared to the other movies created since this one.
In a sense, you could also see Unbreakable – (2000 movie).

The telling of the story of one Roman soldier’s struggle for survival at the far front lines.
An excellent movie on all fronts. Highly recommended for fans of this genre.

An intelligentsia is exiled as an ambassador to distant lands, and he finds himself swept into mysterious struggles by foreign warriors.
The movie didn’t pay off its production cost, but it’s still amazing. I’d buy a special edition DVD if one is ever released.
The Irishman playing a nord is really amusing, making this movie make me forever aware of bad accents.

An interpretation of the story of Esther.
Fair at best. Seems horribly ‘biased’.
