Believe it or not, Highlander is a 30-year-old movie, though there's still so much more to learn about the beloved tale of sword-wielding immortals and their struggles to keep their heads intact through the ages.

These and many more tidbits await you in the original video created by the geeky visionaries at our sister site, Blastr.com. Check it out for all things sci-fi, fantasy, comic-booky and eternal. There can be only one!
