Conan the Destroyer

Arnold Schwarzenegger returns to the sword-and-sorcery arena in Conan the Destroyer, a 1984 sequel that trades the grim survivalism of the first film for a faster-paced quest. Richard Fleischer directs this adventure, which follows the barbarian warrior as he accepts a dangerous commission from the evil Queen Taramis. Her goal involves transporting a young princess and her bodyguard Zula to a distant castle to retrieve the legendary Horn of Dagoth. The queen hides a darker agenda: she intends to sacrifice the girl once the artifact is secured while relying on her own wizard to eliminate Conan.[edit]
