Given the patchwork nature of the movie, it is perhaps not surprising that the basic plot mirrors that of the first three movies in [[Film/DeathstalkerSeries The Deathstalker Series]]. You have an EvilSorcerer using a tournament to mask their true objectives, just like in [[Film/{{Deathstalker}} the first movie]]. You have a disposed princess turning to Deathstalker for help, just like in [[Film/DeathstalkerIIDuelOfTheTitans the second movie]]. And you have the EvilSorcerer trying to make an invincible army, just like in [[Film/DeathstalkerAndTheWarriorsFromHell the third movie]].

The fourth and final film in the Film/DeathstalkerSeries. It is probably the least well known of the quadrilogy and is also the least memorable - likely because of the large amount of StockFootage used in the making of this movie. The vast majority of the StockFootage came from the earlier Deathstalker movies, with other bits and pieces coming from other Creator/RogerCorman produced fantasy films.

* FanService: Lots of well-oiled gladiators, lesbian amazons and leather armor for all!

* BeastMan: A few of them are seen in the tournament. Janeris picks and win a fight against a lioness-woman to get her hands on her slave.

* GirlOnGirlIsHot: Strangely, averted: when the hero passes by an alcove where Janeris and her brigade are about to frolic, he looks in disgust and proceeds, uninterested.

The fourth and final film in the Film/DeathstalkerSeries. It is probably the least well known of the quadrilogy and is also the least memorable - likely because of the large amount of StockFootage used in the making of this movie. The vast majority of the StockFootage came from the earlier Deathstalker movies, with other bits and pieces coming from other Creator/RogerCorman produced fantasy films.

We open with Deathstalker (once again played by Rick Hill) looking for an old friend who borrowed his magic sword and then disappeared. He quickly joins forces with the maiden (and secretly, the lost princess of the realm) Dionara who - after the death of her warrior sister at the hands of the local [[BeastMan beast men]]- decides to take her place in a tournament being held by the castle of [[EvilSorcerer Evil Sorceress]] [[GodSaveUsFromTheQueen Queen Kana]].

Once at the castle, Deathstalker gets the feeling that something isn't right and begins sneaking around the palace at night to investigate. He and Dionara enlist the aid of the monk-like Vaniat, run afoul of the PsychoLesbian Janeris and her AmazonBrigade and eventually uncover Kana's plot to [[TakenForGranite turn all of the participants in the tournament into living stone golems]] under her control.

Given the patchwork nature of the movie, it is perhaps not surprising that the basic plot mirrors that of the first three movies in [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Film/DeathstalkerSeries The Deathstalker Series]]. You have an EvilSorcerer using a tournament to mask their true objectives, just like in [[Film/{{Deathstalker}} the first movie]].

!!Tropes:

* AllAmazonsWantHercules: Averted with gusto. Janeris and her AmazonBrigade are most definitely interested in girls and only girls.
* AmazonBrigade: Janeris and her followers.
* BarbarianHero: Deathstalker. Actually a hero this time.
* ChasteHero: Vaniat, who practices a training regiment that rejects all sexual activity.
* CoversAlwaysLie: [[RunningGag After 3 films, are you still surprised?]]
* DepravedHomosexual: Janeris, who will kill you if you get between her and whatever girl has taken her fancy.
* TheDragon: Rakshia.
* [[EvilSorcerer Evil Sorceress:]] Kana
* FanService: Lots of well-oiled gladiators, lesbian amazons and leather armor for all!
* FauxActionGirl: Dionara, who fights like a princess pretending to be an amazon... because that's what she is.
* KingIncognito: Dionara, who was coming to the tournament with her warrior sister, nominally for whatever prizes were being offered. It turns out that she's a lost princess and that Kana has set up shop in what was her ancestral castle.
* StockFootage: The movie is made up of a fair bit of it, which wouldn't be so bad if it weren't StockFootage taken from the first three ''Deathstalker'' movies!
