Vikings and Motorway




Many people have a pre-set image of what Vikings are.  Generally the description goes something like this, “They are rough, tough, uncouth, dirty, violent and savage warriors that offer no quarter or mercy.”

Wrong! While it is true Vikings were fierce warriors they were also so much more.


Lionsgate presents The History Channel’s ‘The Real Viking Collection’ on DVD.  Follow three Specials that examine the sea-faring warriors, their lifestyle and their deeply rooted loyalty to their family and fellow Vikings.

Join a team of historical detectives as they trace the trail of the 8th Century Vikings amongst excavations.  See how they lived, worked and played and what forces shaped their society.


Green Beret Terry Schappert tests the weapons and tactics used by the Vikings and witness the carnage that happens when the Vikings meet their match: the Saxons.

Anthony Wong and Shawn Yue star in Motorway the story of a rookie from the Stealth Riders, a covert police unit of top drivers who investigate the criminal activities in the drag racing arena. 



The rookie and his partner attempt to take down a criminal driver who has never been caught.  A deadly motorized showdown culminates as cars become weapons and speed is the ultimate force for good and evil.

Look for a ‘Making Of’ documentary, Trailer Gallery and more included with the DVD.
