Conquest
(Limited UHD/2XBlu-ray/CD w/ Rigid Slipcase)
“Conquest is a bizzare, moody, and wonderfully oversaturated fantasy hallucination captured on film by Lucio Fulci, one of my all-time favorite directors.”

In a Place Beyond Time, Comes a Terrifying Challenge Beyond Imagination!
When a mysterious stranger (Andrea Occhipinti — New York Ripper) travels from far away lands to explore, he is quickly attacked by the evil Ocron’s (Sabrina Siani — Aenigma) wolf-like henchmen (led by José Gras — Mad Foxes) to steal his magic bow. Fortunately he is saved by the brave barbarian Mace (Jorge Rivero — Goma-2), and the two embark on an epic quest to defeat Ocron and all of the land’s most evil and vile creatures!
Attempting to ride the success of Conan the Barbarian, the Italian film market turned its attention to the fantasy realm for a series of films with Fulci’s Conquest remaining the best to emerge from this period. Featuring oddball creatures, naked sorceresses, mythical weapons, dolphins, gruesome practical gore FX and Claudio Simonetti’s (Goblin) driving synth soundtrack, Conquest is a Fulci film like no other, while still being exactly what you would expect from him. Scanned and restored in 4K from the original camera negative, Conquest retains all of the grain, haze, dreamlike focus, and color palette as Lucio Fulci intended! This worldwide UHD debut deluxe 4 disc edition (UHD, Blu-ray, Blu-ray, CD) features new artwork by Justin Coffee, soundtrack CD by Claudio Simonetti, and an entire Blu-ray disc loaded with extras!
