Shaka Zulu (Region 1 Import DVD)

Conceived as a sequel to the popular miniseries, SHAKA ZULU: THE LAST GREAT WARRIOR (aka SHAKA ZULU: THE CITADEL) was written and directed by Joshua Sinclair, who also penned the original. Prentice Mungo (David Hasselhoff) is a slave-trader who discovers that his ship is carrying a stowaway, Katherine (Karen Allen). Katherine is seeking passage to Africa to see her father, a British officer stationed there. But when they arrive, Mungo discovers Shaka, king of the Zulu tribe, among the slaves he is going to be transporting. Using his cleverness and leadership abilities, Zulu incites the slaves to revolt, and takes Katherine captive as he flees into the African countryside. SHAKA ZULU: THE LAST GREAT WARRIOR is an imaginative alternate take on British colonial history.
