Warding off the Bubonic Plague this coming January 7th is Nic Cage and Ron Perlman, and to further prove that shite, a half dozen new stills from Dominic Sena’s SEASON OF THE WITCH have just floated in. Lit torches, unraveled scrolls, mighty swords-a-swinging…yup, this bastard has all the makings of period horror-fantasy at its silliest!
Also featuring Stephen Campbell Moore, Claire Foy, Ulrich Thomsen, Stephen Graham, and the great Christopher Lee, SEASON OF THE WITCH sees:
Nicolas Cage star as medieval knight Behmen, who undertakes a mission pitting him against a devious witch, and making him the last hope for the world against an ancient, 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 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.
Enjoy your new looks!
