Third entry in the Highlander series, but set between the first and second films. Following the death of his first wife, Heather, Immortal Connor MacLeod (Christopher Lambert) headed to feudal Japan in search of the sorcerer Nakano. However, Mac Leod was followed by fellow immortal Kane (Mario Van Peebles), who slew Nakano before becoming accidentally entombed in a collapsed mountain. Now the year is 1994, and Kane has gained his freedom. Determined to become the last of the Immortals, he sets out to track down and kill his only remaining rival. (Entertainment in Video)

The Sorcerer is definitely not one of Highlander's worst films. Deborah Kara Unger and Mario Van Peebles were never able to act decently, but knowing the imbalance of the entire film series, it's not that bad of an experience. As usual, the flashbacks are one of the better aspects.

This really doesn't have anything to impress. It's just a repetition of some scenes from the first movie but with a different attempt to put the story together. The flashbacks are dreadful, the effects too, the acting is standard, but the only thing that stood out for me was a somewhat beautiful erotic scene. The villain is fine, but there simply isn't anything here to truly justify a continuation.

Christopher Lambert needed to pay the rent one year in advance again. If I knew what would come of it, I'd pay it for him out of my own pocket.
