Maybe worth mentioning that there were a few pages mentioning the genre "sword and sorcery" and i searched by "evil brother" as one of the key words

(4 Score & 7 Years Ago)

Some rather forgettable movie I saw at least ten-fifteen years ago. It centered around a good brother and an evil brother, with constant flashbacks of good brother and his beloved, ending with her taking an arrow for him. There was also a scene of their father giving the good brother a magical sword... with the magic, apparently, being the ability to float out of a scabbard behind his back and into his hand. I remember that effect looking veeeeery cheap.
