Watch the first episode of Spartacus: Vengeance for free

Even though the premiere doesn’t air on the channel until this Friday, January 27th, Starz has released the full first episode of “Spartacus: Vengeance” online. Check it out below!

The full synopsis of the show thus far- 

On the heels of the bloody escape from the House of Batiatus that concluded “Spartacus: Blood and Sand”, the gladiator rebellion continues and begins to strike fear into the heart of the Roman Republic in “Spartacus: Vengeance”. Gaius Claudius Glaber and his Roman troops are sent to Capua to crush the growing band of freed slaves that Spartacus leads before it can inflict further damage. Spartacus is presented the choice of satisfying his personal need for vengeance against the man that condemned his wife to slavery and eventual death or making the larger sacrifices necessary to keep his budding army from breaking apart. Containing all of the blood-soaked action, exotic sexuality, and villainy and heroism that has come to distinguish the series, the tale of Spartacus resumes inepic fashion.

I’ll admit, I’ve never seen an episode of “Spartacus: Blood and Sand”, but if this first episode from the second season is any indication it’s pretty ridiculous fun, even if it owes a MASSIVE debt to Zack Snyder and 300.
