After the death of his mother, evil mutant wizard Blackwolf discovers long-lost military technologies. Full of ego and ambition, Blackwolf claims his mother's throne, assembles an army, and sets out to brainwash and conquer Earth. Meanwhile, Blackwolf's gentle twin brother, the bearded sage Avatar, calls upon his own magical abilities to foil Blackwolf's plans for world domination — even if it means eliminating his own flesh and blood.

Utterly bizarre plot. I never thought I’d see animated hell nazi’s fighting a bunch of elves and fairies but I guess I have now. A very whimsical film that I can see myself watching a lot and growing to become one of my favourite animated films. Ralph Bakshi films are gonna become a small fixation for me I think because his style seems addictive and overall wonderful to look at.
