There’s nothing like a few new stills (below) from the silly-looking Nic Cage flick SEASON OF THE WITCH to get the last week of 2009 rolling along. That’s right folks, behold a few new images from WITCH, and behold the ample amounts of boringness each one provides!
The level of hope I have for WITCH is that it lives up to the awesomeness of THE WICKER MAN in terms of the level of Cage’s performance. If it’s as over the top and out there as that, we’ll be in for a real treat.
In case you’ve forgotten, SEASON OF THE WITCH, stars Nicolas Cage as medieval knight Behmen who undertakes a mission pitting him against an devious witch and making him the last hope for the world against an ancient and dark force. His faith broken by years of battle as a crusader, Behmen returns to central Europe to find his homeland decimated by the Black Plague. While searching for food and supplies at the Palace at Marburg, Behmen and his trusted companion, Felson (Ron Perlman) are apprehended and ordered by the dying Cardinal to deliver a young peasant girl believed to be the witch responsible for the Plague to a remote abbey where her powers can be destroyed. Behmen agrees to the assignment but only if the peasant girl is granted a fair trial. As he and five others set off on this dangerous journey, they realize with mounting dread that the cunning girl is no ordinary human, and that their mission will pit them against an evil that even in these dark times they never could have imagined.
