Flesh + Blood (1985)

Description

In the battle between good and evil, only the strong survive! From visionary director Paul Verhoeven ('Basic Instinct') comes this "vivid and muscular" ('Variety') epic adventure of medieval bravery and blood lust starring Rutger Hauer and Jennifer Jason Leigh! In the chaotic, morally bankrupt Europe of 1510, a cold-hearted warrior named Martin (Hauer) leads his motley crew of mercenaries into battle to reclaim the castle of an ousted nobleman. But when the despot betrays them, Martin and his band of ruffians strike back by kidnapping the innocent young maiden (Leigh) betrothed to the nobleman's son -- a fearless Renaissance man who must risk life and limb to rescue the woman he loves!
