Mortal Kombat

Five hundred years ago, an ancient and well-respected Shaolin fighting tournament, held every 50 years, was corrupted by an evil and elderly sorcerer named Shang Tsung. Shang was accompanied by Prince Goro, a warrior of the Shokan race, a four-armed half-human / half-dragon. Knowing that if ten tournaments in a row were won by the Outworld champion, the Earth Realm would be conquered by evil and fall into darkness, Shang entered Goro in the tournament and had him defeat the great Kung Lao. Goro has been reigning supreme as the undefeated fighting champion for five hundred years now. As the last tournament required draws near, Raiden, Thunder God and protector of the Earth Realm, enacts a plan to tip the scales in the humans' favor. Seven fighters step into the arena on Shang Tsung's mysterious island: Liu Kang, a Shaolin warrior; Sonya Blade, a Special Forces operative; Kano, a mercenary thug; Johnny Cage, a fame-seeking actor; Sub-Zero, an ice-wielding Lin Kuei warrior; Scorpion, an undead adversary; and Raiden himself.
