Arnold Schwarzenegger makes his striking screen debut as the legendary warrior and hero, Conan The Barbarian. Orphaned by a cold-blooded cult leader (James Earl Jones) and his band of brutal marauders, Conan endures a childhood of merciless slavery only to become a gladiator for the amusement of his captors. Sent to the Far East to hone his fighting skills, Conan is freed and begins a dangerous, full-blooded quest to avenge his parents' massacre. Now, the sword-wielding warrior must vanquish his bloodthirsty enemies in a death-defying action-adventure about courage, strength, character and the triumph of good over evil.
