Synopsis
The Barbarians (1987) is a sword-and-sorcery action romp you can watch online on iFILM. Twin boys, Kutchek and Gore, are stolen from their tribe as infants and raised as gladiator slaves — until they grow into two mountains of muscle and break free.
The villain Kadar (Richard Lynch) holds their queen Canary captive and hunts the magic gem her people guard. So the brothers set out to free her and recover the stone, brawling through arenas, dungeons, a swamp monster and a witch's traps along the way. Real-life bodybuilders Peter and David Paul, the Barbarian Brothers, play the leads, and the whole thing rides on their fists and goofy, good-natured banter.
Director Ruggero Deodato, infamous for Cannibal Holocaust, plays it purely for Saturday-night fun here — silly, bloody and loud. It's a pick for fans of '80s fantasy schlock that never pretends to be anything more than a good time. Stream The Barbarians (1987) online on iFILM.
