"The Viking Sagas" is an American movie from 1995, directed by Michael Chapman, starring Ralf Moeller and Sven-Ole Thorsen.

Plot Synopsis

The story takes place in Iceland around the height of the Viking Age, where a young man, Kjartan (Moeller), must defeat a horde of evil vikings, intent on taking over his father's land and stealing his girlfriend Gudrun (Ingibjörg Stefánsdóttir) from him too. To help him in this task, Kjartan seeks help from the older Viking Warrior Gunnar (Thorsen), who trains him to become a fierce fighter, and later aids him in his quest against his arch-enemy Ketil (Hinrik Ólafsson).
