Quick Answer

What is The Long Swift Sword of Siegfried about?

The Long Swift Sword of Siegfried is a 1971 German-American action, adventure, comedy, and fantasy film directed by Adrian Hoven and David F. Friedman about a magical knight who battles dragons and villains for love and glory.

Programmer's Pick

If you thought Germanic legend was all doom and gloom, Siegfried’s libido and that all-female army are here to prove you wrong. Between magical hats, dragons, and a truly liberal approach to armor, this one’s more romp than relic.

Overview

A raucous spoof on the old Nibelungen legend, The Long Swift Sword of Siegfried introduces us to Siegfried: a handsome, impulsive knight with magical powers and a penchant for stirring up trouble. Arriving at King Gunther’s castle, Siegfried quickly falls for the king’s sister, igniting a series of complications amidst a court full of oddballs, villains, and the occasional fire-breathing dragon. This is no staid medieval epic—instead, it’s a gleefully risqué, nudity-filled romp that upends mythic heroics with sword fights, invisibility, and more than a little softcore mischief. Expect wild adventures, farcical romance, and an irreverent take on classic saga tropes.
