SUMMARY : In the year 786, as the Vikings invade England, King Harald wishes to make a pact with the British. But he is betrayed by the English Baron Rutford, who covets the English throne held by King Lothar and his wife Alice. Harald is cowardly assassinated, leaving his two young sons at the scene of the battle. The eldest, Iron, is rescued by the Vikings who bring him back to Norway. The youngest, Erik, is taken in by Queen Alice, who adopts him in the greatest secrecy. Twenty years later, they have become men trained for combat, and fate will soon bring the two brothers together... as adversaries.

ABOUT THE FILM : A year after The Mask of the Demon, Mario Bava has produced an epic epic in the same vein as Richard Fleischer 's masterpiece, Vikings. Cameron Mitchell (Six Women for the Assassin) and George Ardisson (A Pretty Body to Kill) play the two feuding brothers, accompanied by twin sisters Ellen and Alice Kessler (The Magicians). Viking Rush is an intense adventure film, in which we find all the ingredients of Greek tragedy - a high-flying spectacle masterfully led by Mario Bava .
