Once upon a time a god gave a mighty sword to the king of Aquiles to bring justice to his people. Now he wants it back - but the king rather gives his life than the sword. Goddess Dehamira, who spoke for him, is being taken all her privileges and banned in a circle of fire, until a human arrives who’s strong enough to free her. When prince Ator becomes 18, he gets the sword from the mean sorcerer gnome Grindl, to free Dehamira and his people. On his journey he has to fight against dragons and other fantastic figures.

Viewing Notes
Quest for the Mighty Sword (1990) a.k.a. Ator IV: The Hobgoblin is the type of junky sword & sandals crap I gravitate towards. This installment again directed by Joe D’Amato (he also directed the first two Ator films), features Eric Allan Kramer (Thor!) in both the role of Ator the father and his son. Weird, right? The son grows up enslaved by the evil Thorn-Grindel goblin, who looks like the same goblins from Troll 2 (probably because Laura Gemser is also in this movie). Ator has to find his father’s sword then seek revenge on the Hobgoblin. I guess. It’s a terrible film but my kind of terrible.
