Inspired by the characters of
Robert E. Howard (whose best-known creation was
Conan The Barbarian), this epic tale of swords and sorcery stars
Kevin Sorbo as Kull, a barbarian warrior who kills the King of Valusia in the midst of a battle; with his last breath, the monarch hands Kull his crown and names him as his successor. Kull soon learns that possessing great power brings you great enemies, as Taligaro (
Thomas Ian Griffith), leader of Valusia's Royal Guard, plots to murder Kull and take his place on the throne. Meanwhile, Kull's love for the comely slave Zareta (
Karina Lombard) is tested when his head is turned by the exotic Akivasha (
Tia Carrere), though Kull doesn't know at first that the leather-clad temptress is actually a 3,000-year-old demon given human form by a sorceress. Between the treachery of Taligaro and Akivasha, Kull finds his life and leadership threatened at every turn, and he must count on the help of his friends Zareta, holy man Ascalante (
Litefoot), and pirate Juba (
Harvey Fierstein) if he is to survive as Valusia's leader and put an end to slavery and the subjugation of women.
Kull the Conqueror was, in its first drafts, planned as the third film in the
Conan the Barbarian series, and it marked the first starring film role for
Kevin Sorbo, who rose to fame on the TV series
Hercules: The Legendary Journeys.
