Thulsa "Tree of Woe" Doom is more bemused than concerned when Conan interrupts him as he is addressing his worshippers. He uses his mesmerising snake powers to freeze the stolid barbarian and proceeds to charm him with a monologue filled with soothing prose and compelling justification for any harm he has caused in the past.

Sadly, Conan has no grasp of such subtle debating skills and musters enough willpower to brutally hack the head from the Snake God. It is quite a nice decapitation too, with Conan opting for the seldom seen "V" shaped chop combo, which has the advantage that the head doesn't get lost as it parts ways from Mr. Neck. In this case the barbarian deftfully keeps hold of the head, so he can hurl it down the temple steps towards the shocked congregation.

What follows is surely the largest conversion to Atheism in cinema, as they all solemnly throw the torches that symbolise their faith into the water. Again, this goes way over Conan's head, he is too busy burning the temple down to worry about metaphysics.
