"Prince Malachy returns home from the Crusades and finds the kingdom haunted by a dark force after his father's death."
The one talent of this director is he/she was able to make a low budget movie look like it had money behind it. It sports some decent choreographed sword fights, and good looking if repetitive special effects.
What this movie lacks, is any sort of story or characterization. The characters have hard to pronounce names and do nothing to drive the action along. Several seem to drop out of the movie with no explanation.
Myanna Buring is the one person who stands out in this mess. Unfortunately, like Kristanna Loken in T3, she was given almost nothing to work with.
SPOILER The fact that she sets the hero free to defeat the Red Queen makes her the one important character in the movie, WHY she does it is a mystery.
Yes I watched the movie, King Malachy is the Evil Queens son and Jozefa is his half sister. Jozefa finds this out, and it's enough for her to turn on her own mother and everything she has known in life up till this point? END SPOILER
In short, this movie is boring and soulless, and really not worth watching unless you desperately need to waste 90 minutes of your life.
Edit: I would like to add "What do you expect from a Syfy original movie?" Is not an excuse for producing such a low quality film.
