Synopsis/Review
"In this Russian adventure, a Russian soldier returns home and finds that his family has been abused by a cruel local landowner. To get his revenge, the soldier disguises himself as the fearsome masked man, the Black Eagle, and mayhem ensues as he begins to systematically pillage the rich man's domain. When the Black Eagle meets the landowner's lovely daughter, he falls madly in love. To get to her, he then pretends to be a French tutor. In the end, his true identity is revealed, but fortunately, his brave band of men rush to his rescue and an exciting battle ensues." Rossano plays Vladimir Dubrowski, the "Black Eagle".
