Overview

As the plague decimates medieval Europe, rumours circulate of a village immune from the plague. There is talk of a necromancer who leads the village and is able to raise the dead. A fearsome knight joined by a cohort of soldiers and a young monk are charged by the church to investigate. Their journey is filled with danger, but it’s upon entering the village that their true horror begins.

Viewing Notes

After mingling with a few peeps I know (Mitch, Jessica & others) and finally meeting @KreepyLady the next film was ready to go. Christopher Smith’s latest Black Death (2010), a period piece during the plague with a mysterious village on the outskirts immune to the disease. I enjoyed this flick a lot and the fine performance by Sean Bean who carries the film quite well. Love that Carice van Houten is given a meaty role. Adore her. And nice to see David Warner again but he’s not in this enough.
