"A brutal fusion of angst and action, this mini-epic gives the sword-and-sorcery genre a bleak, brusque new life.” Welcome to the first film in the proposed trilogy with the critically acclamied James Purefoy starring as Solomon Kane.

The movie portrays the origins of the fantasy hero Solomon Kane, based on the character created by pulp fiction writer Robert E Howard. Set in the 17th century we meet Kane fighting against the Ottomans in North Africa, after an encounter with ‘The Reaper’, a Satanic Demon, Kane must now find redemption and save his soul from eternal damnation. Kane returns to England and lives a life of peace, converting to Puritanism, but soon the doings of an evil sorcerer (Malachi) upset his plans and he must take up arms again.

Writer and Director Michael J. Bassett is praised for handling the film "with the same level of commitment Peter Jackson brought to the Lord Of The Rings trilogy.” Co-starring Max von Sydow, Pete Postlethwaite, Rachel Hurd-Wood, Alice Krige, and Mackenzie Crook.
