"A spectacular, brawling epic." -Life
Hollywood legends Kirk Douglas, Tony Curtis, Ernest Borgnine and Janet Leigh dazzle in this epic chronicle of brutal rivalry and blood-thirsty ambition. Roaring through the 9th century with powerful performances and 'brilliant visual drama" (Cue), The Vikings is a riveting "spectacle of have-at-'em action" (Los Angeles Examiner)!
Bitter hatred divides two brothers. Prince Einar (Douglas) is the son and heir of a savage Viking chieftain. Prince Eric (Curtis) is his unknowing half-brother, the bastard off-spring of Einar's father and an English queen. When the Vikings kidnap a princess (Leigh), her beauty inflames the desires of both men, forcing a bloody duel that decides their fate... and the future of the English throne.

Finally, the Vikings have landed! I am very happy that MGM has finally seen fit to put this classic movie on DVD. Funny enough, I first saw this film in my seventh grade history class because my teacher would rather show movies than speak. They even made us take a test on it! Unfortunately the movie has little to do with actual history, but hey, it beat studying.
Over the years I have watched this movie may times, and I can never help but pause on a channel for a while if I stumble
