Synopsis

Highlander (1986) — watch online on iFILM. Director Russell Mulcahy's fantasy action film, produced by Davis-Panzer Productions and Thorn EMI, stars Christopher Lambert as Connor MacLeod, a Scottish warrior who cannot die. Sean Connery and Clancy Brown co-star. Runtime: 116 minutes.

MacLeod first dies — and doesn't — on a Highland battlefield sometime in the 1530s. His clansmen drive him out. Centuries of wandering follow, guided by the Spanish swordsman Ramirez (Connery), who explains what MacLeod is and how the game ends. In 1986 New York the endgame arrives: the Kurgan (Brown), a brutal immortal who has been hunting MacLeod across the centuries, closes in for the final bout. There can be only one. Queen wrote the soundtrack — six tracks, including "Princes of the Universe."

The film flopped on release and became a cult classic on home video, launching a franchise that ran through sequels, a TV series, and a 30th anniversary 4K restoration. Stream Highlander (1986) full movie online on iFILM.
