The film features martial arts, and also elements of fantasy, horror, sci-fi, and also some mild sexual content due to the portrayal of the Crocodile Queen.

The main difference between two characters is that Mandala is a warrior from the mythical pre-Islamic times of the Archipelago while Jaka Sembung is a Muslim and West Javanese freedom fighter against Dutch colonial rule.

An old man who finds the meteorite creates the Devil's Sword, and he hides it after it burns down his hut.

Banyujaga (Advent Bangun) is sent by the Crocodile Queen (Gudhi Sintara) to steal the fiancé of a local village's princess (Enny Christina) to keep as her own subject.

Mandala recovers the Devil's Sword and must defeat the Crocodile Queen and Banyujaga.
