腐败的君主提庇留（奥斯卡奖提名埃里克罗伯茨）逼迫勇敢的将军马库斯（百老汇明星凯文特普尔顿），制服已经毁灭农村的丑陋的独眼巨人。可一旦独眼巨人被带到地牢，马库斯就得被迫参加搏斗比赛。最终，他和独眼巨人还有漂亮的野蛮人芭芭拉（弗利达法瑞尔）联手反抗腐败的君主以及其邪恶的侄子。

It is the pinnacle of the Roman Empire, a time of mighty gladiators, lusty women, and a ferocious one - eyed monster that slaughters those foolish enough to enter his forest domain. But the corrupt Emperor Tiberius has a plan to please the bloodlust of the people: Capture the creature and unleash him in the arena against his condemned slaves, including wrongfully imporisoned general Marcus Romulus. Now the ultimate battle between man and beast is about to begin... and Rome will tase the full furty of hell unleashed.
