Mathayus ist einer der drei letzten seines Stammes. Die Akkadianer waren einst ein stolzer Stamm von Söldnern. Bei einer Auseinandersetzung mit dem bösen Memnon kann Mathayus nur knapp seinem sicheren Tod entgehen, denn Memnon hat die Kraft einer mächtigen Zauberin hinter sich. Der Straßendieb Arpid hilft ihm, sich zu retten - danach kann Mathayus mit seiner Rache an Memnon beginnen. Die Schwerter glänzen und die nackten Oberkörper auch, wenn der Abenteuer-, Sandalen- und Barbaren-Kintopp der vergangenen 30 Jahre geplündert wird, um daraus ein Gekloppe und Gesteche im Wüstensand zu machen, bei dem die eigentliche Handlung eine untergeordnete Rolle spielt...

The Scorpion King Krieger Legende König

Ägypten vor rund 5000 Jahren. Von der Stadt Gomorrah aus verfolgt der bösartige Herrscher Memnon den Plan, sämtliche Nomadenvölker auszurotten. Die letzten noch verbleibenden Stämme, die sich von jeher eher gegenseitig bekriegen, sind gezwungen, sich zusammenzutun. In dem Wissen, dass der Feind sich bei ihrer Vernichtung der Visionen eines Hellsehers bedient, heuern sie den Söldner Mathayus an, der diesen ausschalten soll.

Le Roi Scorpion

5 000 ans avant Jésus-Christ, la légendaire cité de Gomorrhe est sous la coupe de l'avide Memnon, un tyran maléfique déterminé à éliminer les peuplades nomades du désert. Menacées d'extinction, celles-ci en oublient leurs querelles séculaires et préparent ensemble une riposte. Sachant que leur adversaire s'inspire des visions et des prophéties d'un sorcier, elles engagent un assassin, Maythayus, pour tuer ce dernier. Après s'être introduit dans le camp ennemi, Maythayus découvre que le sorcier est en fait une magnifique jeune femme se nommant Cassandra. Incapable de la tuer, le guerrier s'enfuit avec elle dans le désert.

Per eliminarlo vengono assoldati i membri della temuta e crudele tribù degli Accadiani fra i quali primeggia Mathayus ...
