The Most Magical Adventure Of All Time
With spell binding performances from a stellar international cast and spectacular special effects from Jim Henson' Creature Shop, Merlin conjures up an epic Golden Age of wondrous magic, supernatural passions and unforgettable adventure! In a time when magic was fading from the world the malevolent sorceress Mab (Miranda Richardson) summoned forth a mighty wizard named Merlin (Sam Neil) to keep the power of the Old Ways alive. But when he is touched by the love of the beautiful Nimue (Isabella Rossellini), Merlin turns away from Mab's dark enchantments and allies himself with the young warrior who will rise to become the legendary King Arthur. Together, they pledge to uphold Arthur's visionary cause: bring peace and justice to a realm haunted by monsters and ravaged by war - and set the stage for the ultimate clash of Good versus Evil.
