About this movie

Christopher Lambert and Sean Connery star in the epic tale of immortality that launched one of the most beloved action-adventure series in film and TV history. After Scottish clansman Connor MacLeod (Lambert) discovers his true identity as a member of a legion of immortals, he embarks on a legendary journey spanning continents and centuries, eventually landing in modern-day New York City. Connor faces his ultimate test when other immortals begin to appear in the city for the mythical Gathering to claim the Prize, leading to a titanic showdown with the frightening and deadly Kurgan (Clancy Brown). In the end, there can be only one!

This was a horrible movie, by any decade's standards. Also, this copy had big errors in one scene. For whatever reason, I had to watch it in stereo instead of surround.

I remember the first time I watched this when it came out in theaters...What a spectacular movie! I pity those who haven't seen this movie. It will always be one of my very favorites.

This has been a favorite since my childhood. I'm not ashamed to admit this film and the Highlander Series were my introduction to Queen, Clancy Brown, Sean Connery, and Christopher Lambert. For me this takes me back. I only wish we could get the Director's Cut for this film and the Renegade Cut for the second film. I admit there is a lot of cheese to this film and looking at it through a modern lens might make it seem like a bad film but remember it was released in 1986 and is an action movie mixed with some romance.
