If you loved Highlander, try The Scorpion King 2: Rise of a Warrior
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. The Scorpion King 2: Rise of a Warrior has roughly 4.6× fewer votes than Highlander — it's a deeper cut, not a mainstream recommendation. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Russell Mulcahy, and they sit in Action / Adventure / Fantasy territory. If that's the register that drew you to Highlander, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What The Scorpion King 2: Rise of a Warrior is
You're Mathayus, witness to your father's death. But revenge means facing down King Sargon's dark magic. Director Mulcahy, of *Highlander* fame, keeps the action moving. What remains is a sturdy sword-and-sandal flick.
