Jamal Walker, a theme park employee, falls into a ditch and drowns, but somehow travels back in time to 1328 England. Initially, he thinks he's in a theme park called Castle World, but soon discovers he's actually in the past. He meets a woman named Victoria, who is part of a rebellion against the cruel king. Jamal gets caught up in the rebellion and, despite initial hesitation, decides to help them. He uses his knowledge of the future to teach the rebels tactics and eventually becomes known as the Black Knight. After a fierce battle, the rebels succeed in overthrowing the king, and Jamal is hailed as a hero. Eventually, he returns to his own time, where he wakes up in a hospital after being rescued from the ditch. He applies the knowledge he gained from his time-traveling experience to his job at the theme park, Medieval World, and becomes a success. The movie ends with Jamal meeting a woman who looks identical to Victoria, and he falls into the ditch again, this time waking up in ancient Rome about to be devoured by lions.
