A stodgy 11th-century drama, featuring Majors in the starring role. He portrays a Viking prince who sets out across the Atlantic from his Greenland home in search of his father, the king. Accompanying him is his Viking horde, decked out in their best: furs, armor, and horned hats. They
travel to North America, where Majors' father, Ferrer, and his party have been captured by Indians. With the help of a friendly Indian maiden, Coelho, they do find the king and his party, but their eyes have been gouged out. The Vikings engage in a few battles with the Indians (shot in a lot of
gratuitous slow motion) and bring the prisoners back home.
