An enjoyable romp with lots of gore, blood and nudity, so what is there not to like? It really centers on three actors. Martin, Steven and Agnes. Martin is with a group of mercenaries, and after the opening castle raid, is expelled and left to fend on their own. Steven would be considered sort of a nerd, and he is betrothed to Agnes, a convent girl, who he never met. They only get a brief meeting, when Martin and his gang attack, and capture Agnes. Martin and his group storm a castle, capture it, and hole up in it. The King and Steven find where they are, see that they have Agnes, and set about attacking it. The build a rather interesting 'tank' with an extending ladder. Don't ask too many questions and how, as this is only a movie. Oh, and the bubonic plague arises. Will Martin be able to rescue Agnes, does Agnes want to be rescued, and will Steven survive the sword fights? All a lot of fun.
