Just got this trailer in my in box, but I figured we could pass it along for a couple of reasons. This is the new one from the director of Triangle, Christopher Smith, which was one of the better films I watched on my Roku box in a while. Below find the official synopsis and creds we found for you plus the groovy trailer…enjoy.
From Christopher Smith, director of cult hits Creep, Severance and Triangle, comes a brutal and terrifying epic that guarantees to chill the blood and stir the soul.
In a plague-ridden medieval England, Osmund (Eddie Redmayne), a young monk, is charged in leading the fearsome knight Ulrich (Sean Bean), and his group of mercenaries to a remote village where the inhabitants are unaffected by the deadly pestilence. Their quest is to hunt down a necromancer – someone able to bring the dead back to life.
Their journey is long and brutal; encountering deadly bandits, vicious witch-burnings and their own impeding sense of doom. Though it’s upon entering the village that their true horror begins…

The beginning of the synopsis sounds almost exactly like SEASON OF THE WITCH. Starring Nicolas Cage. So in theory, I should want nothing to do with this movie, due do my Cage infatuation. Except I like Sean Bean. His turn in THE HITCHER remake was really entertaining. And I think he just played Zeus recently. So he’s kinda interesting.
