The Scorpion King 2002
5000 years ago, the ruthless warrior king Memnon believed he was destined to rule the terrifying people of the desert. With his army of brutal barbarians, he swept through the land, causing great devastation and enslaving those he did not kill. Memnon’s systematic strategies to eliminate those who opposed him were based on the foresight of a powerful sorcerer, who could predict when, where, and how his enemies would attack. As a result, he never lost a battle. However, a few tribes were able to resist Memnon’s tyranny, knowing that his downfall was imminent. They united their forces and turned to Mathayus, the only one who could stop him. Mathayus, a skilled assassin from a lineage of assassins, set out on a dangerous mission to defeat Memnon by destroying his most valuable asset, the beautiful Cassandra. Instead of killing her, he decided to take her hostage and venture into the desolate Valley of Death. Mathayus realized that the only way to survive was to confront Memnon directly.
