The Beastmaster

The Beastmaster (1982) is a cult fantasy adventure you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Don Coscarelli and starring Marc Singer as Dar — a warrior who can communicate with animals. A black tiger, a pair of wily ferrets, and a hunting eagle are his only allies when the cult priest Maax, played by Rip Torn, wipes out his village and sets the land under a reign of fear.

Dar's quest for revenge takes him through dark forests and underground lairs, with his animal companions pulling off feats no human soldier could manage — stealing keys, scouting enemy camps, turning the tide of battle outright. Tanya Roberts co-stars as Kiri. Shot on a modest budget, the film found its real audience on cable and video, spawning a franchise that ran into the 1990s. Stream The Beastmaster (1982) on iFILM.
