Sometime BC:
Melo and his sister, Arian, are wandering through the forest when the brother mysteriously vanishes. Desperate to find him, Arian stumbles across an invisible gateway, one she only becomes aware of when she is grabbed by unseen hands that pull her into this hidden world of ATLANTIS...
The uncharted underground city is populated by a community of slaves who exist only to serve the Queen and lizard-like Master. Barbaric fights are the chosen source of entertainment, a brothel offers up sex slaves for lustful indulgence, a Minotaur lives in a cavernous maze in the belly of the city and the sole source of nourishment for all is meat....HUMAN MEAT!
Duelling gladiators compete to the bloody death for the thrills of the populous and the amusement of Queen Anteya whilst devious High Priest, Sartor, courts the favour of the Master by tracking down the mighty Blood Crystal, a much sought-after gemstone that has recently been unearthed and which holds unimaginable power for he who possesses it. However, to fully take advantage of the Blood Crystal's wealth of power, a particular female is needed. The flesh-eating Master charges Sartor with the all important mission of visiting the surface to find the chosen one: the Child of the Fire Crystal...
The Child of the Fire Crystal lives in a secret place amongst the dwellings of deformed, inbred locals.
With the possibility of the Blood Crystal AND the Child of the Fire Crystal coming into his possession, the evil ruler of Atlantis needs only to complete the merging of power between the two by engaging in sexual intercourse with his human Queen, Anteya, before being reborn as a being of unbelievable power.
His grand plan is revealed post-coitus: he will kill the Child of the Fire Crystal, absorb her powers and experience rebirth in full adult form via the womb of his own Queen!
The ensuing carnage and revolt threatens to tear Atlantis apart at the seams, and bring it to its knees...
Michael J. Murphy's little seen fantasy-horror epic finally receives its rightful dues via this exciting and bonus-packed DVD release from SARCOPHILOUS FILMS!
Tongues are ripped out, people squashed by concrete rollers, women decapitated, sword-goring gladiators, gore-drenched piles of severed limbs, human meat processed into food, a lizard-like master whose sex organs radiate light like the Northern Star, the blinding light that emerging from his groin area prior to an ejaculation like that of a Supernova....this film is an hypnotic, jaw-dropper of forgotten Brit-horror-fantasy the likes you will never have witnessed before!
