Sword of the Barbarians, The (1982)

A barbarian's wife and tribe are murdered by an evil goddess and warlord.  The swordsman vows vengeance upon the cult that slayed his family and must make his way to the Ark of the Templars for the special ingredient needed to put an end to the terror.  

Our hero is joined on his quest by an Asian archer and semi-nude women who help along the way through the many fights and various perils.  Will they make it and get the magical crossbow needed to destroy the evil witch?

This Italian made super cheese fest was created during the height of the sword-and-sorcery adventure rage that broke out in the early '80's. Directed by Michelle Massimo Tarantini, the mastermind behind the classic MASSACRE IN DINOSAUR VALLEY (aka CANNIAL FEROX II).
