Plot – In the thirteenth century, Richard the Lionheart King of England, who departed for the Crusade, is captured and is prisoned in the Holy Land. Robin of Loxley, his faithful nobleman, escapes and adventurously returns to his homeland. Here the evil Prince John, brother of the King, has usurped the throne helped by the Sheriff of Rottingham and he’s oppressing the hungry peasantry. However, in the Sherwood forest Robin becomes their protector, training them to use weapons instead of pitchforks. He also finds the time to fall in love with Marian, a princess with a chastity belt who’s suffering because of an extremely prudish German governess, Broomhilde. Robin organizes the uprising with the help of Etci, the son of an African prince, the blind servant Blinkin and Little John, a large man of the forest. The sinister Sheriff hires three Sicilian killers to murder Robin and he also receives a potion from the awful witch Latrina, in love with him, to marry Marian. Anyway, the Sheriff dies miserably, Robin ties the knot and becomes Lord of Sherwood after Richard comes back.
