The plot centers upon Princess Evie, who has been forced off the throne by the EvilSorcerer Jarek and his DarkChick [[TheDragon Dragon]] Sultana. Replaced by a vampiric EvilTwin, whom Jarek controls from behind the scenes, Evie is forced to adopt the persona of [[WaifProphet Reena The Seer]] in order [[KingIncognito to lay low]] while searching the neighboring kingdom for a hero who can restore her to the throne. She sets her heart on Deathstalker after he saves her from the local guards and he is quickly won over by her assurances that great treasure and fame await him if he travels to the next kingdom over. Along the way, they encounter gangs of {{Professional Killer}}s, an AmazonBrigade that wants Deathstalker's head for his crimes against women and [[NightOfTheLivingMooks an army of zombies]].

* MirrorMatch: Evie insists that her EvilTwin be left to her. And then anti-climactically kills her with a single thrown knife.


Added DiffLines:

* TrialByCombat: The Amazons put Deathstalker to one, by means of WWF-style wrestling. He gets continuously creamed for fourteen rounds, then his opponent wears out in the fifteenth.

* ButNowIMustGo: Sultana leaves partway through the final battle. Literally, she tells Jarek that she's done working for him and just walks out of the castle. Reportedly, they had planned a better ending for her, [[RealLifeWritesThePlot but her actress had an earlier flight than the rest of the American cast and they couldn't think of any other way to get her out of the movie]] (without killing her, anyway, which they had already done once!) so they just decided to let her get fed up and leave. [[RuleOfFunny Because it's funny!]]

** The moment during Deathstalker's final battle with Jarek where he [[BarehandedBladeBlock grabs Jarek's blade with both hands]] then [[WreckedWeapon snaps it in two]] is directly lifted from a moment in the climax of ''[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_Boxer Five Fingers of Death]]''.

Filmed on the cheap in Argentina in 1987, WordOfGod has it that the script the cast and crew had to work with was absolutely terrible ... even by the standards of this sort of movie. There was also the problem that their studio lot was surrounded by a highway AND an airport - the noise of which made shooting during the day all but impossible. Finally, the studio lot reportedly contained more garbage and tire-fires than the landfill next door.

Faced with all of these difficulties and left with only two weeks to finish the film, director Jim Wynorski decided to [[JustForFun just have fun with it]] and created an AffectionateParody of all the cliches of the sword and sorcery genre. Much of the film was heavily improvised, with Director Wynorksi and actor John Terlesky writing out a broad outline based in equal parts on the original script and WesternAnimation/BugsBunny cartoons.
