Comments:
Connor MacLeod (Christopher Lambert) was born in 1518 in the Scottish Highlands, although he was banished from his village in 1536, after mysteriously surviving a fatal stabbing from an evil enemy, the Kurgan. Connor learned the truth of his survival from Juan Sanchez Villa-Lobos Ramirez (Sean Connery), a Spanish swordsman, who teaches him that Immortals can die only when the head is cut from the body. When one Immortal takes the head of another, the loser's power is absorbed into the winner. Ramirez teaches MacLeod the ways of the sword, hoping to ready him for the inevitable, but Ramirez is tragically killed by the Kurgan. Connor goes into hiding, leading secret lives, hunting evil Immortals and preparing himself for the Gathering. In New York City, 1985, Connor MacLeod and the Kurgan face one another one last time. In the end, there can be only one.
