German label Concorde Video has revealed that it is planning to release on Blu-ray director Terry Jones' adventure comedy Erik The Viking (1989), starring John Cleese, Tim Robbins, and Mickey Rooney. The preliminary release set by the label is December 4th.
Ever since he accidentally killed a girl he was just getting to like, Erik (Robbins) has been moody. Fed up with the emptiness of life in the Dark Ages, he leads a quest to wake the gods and bring back the sun... and the girl, if she'll have him. But along the way, Erik will have to face formidable obstacles, including a dragon with hay fever, tone-deaf islanders who love to sing, and a warlord (Cleese) who likes his Ages dark and nasty!
Note: In the U.S., Erik The Viking is distributed by MGM Home Entertainment.
