Last Thursday our Bostonian gangsta Jared P. assaulted your senses with a whole host of BLACK DEATH material, what with a pair of concept posters, a TV spot, a featurette and 4 f*ckin’ clips. Doesn’t seem like much else could be offered for the flick, ay?
Well guess again. Another new poster for the film has been unrolled, and I think it’s my favorite of the bunch. Dark, grim, foreboding…the new one-sheet definitely lives up to the films namesake!
Coming to theaters March 11th, IN BLACK DEATH, Sean Bean starring as Ulric, a grim emissary from the Church, who leads a young monk (Eddie Redmayne) and a band of violent vigilantes and war veterans through the English countryside. Armed with blood-chilling torture devices, their mission is to stamp out suspected paganism in a village that remains untouched by the black plague, even as the rest of Europe grimly succumbs to the pestilence.
Also starring Carice van Houten (below), David Warner, Kimberley Nixon, David Masterson, Andy Nyman, Tim McInnerny, John Lynch, Johnny Harris, Marianne Graffam and Emun Elliot – BLACK DEATH is currently available on VOD. Have you seen it yet? If so, what’s the verdict? If not, do you plan on seeing it, either in theaters or via VOD?
