Storyline

On a terrible night, a woman gives birth to the grotesque abomination, Morak, after her unholy union with the powerful demon and Hell's messenger, Belial. To become the king of the world and finally sit on the infernal Throne of Fire, Morak must first kill the benevolent rightful ruler, usurp the throne during a total lunar eclipse, and forcefully take the fair Princess Valkari as his wife. Now, only Siegfried, the mighty barbarian warrior with the extraordinary power of invisibility, can save the innocent noblewoman and the entire humankind from a fate worse than death. Will he fulfil his destiny, and destroy the son of evil?

User Reviews

"The day of the night of the day"

There is something quite attractive about those Italian rip-offs. Everything seems to be more dramatic but will less talent. Throne of fire sure is one of those. You get everything you paid for, cheesy lines, inept acting, boring sequences after boring sequences and probably the worst villain ever.

If you're into those kind of films, you'll get what you're looking for and much more. The "pit of madness" scene, whatever is it called was hilarious, a classic Z-grade moment. Personally, I got a kick of watching this, just a glimpse of the cover art and I knew I was in for something "memorable".For the rest, quite a crap fest with some weird entertaining scenes but nothing good really.
