Caught wind of this upcoming adventure/action movie and I can't wait.
* based stories by ROBERT E. HOWARD (same guy who conjured up the CONAN stories).
Loose Background
* Solomon Kane is a 16th century war mercenary travelling throughout Europe and Northern Africa applying his trade for England. He is a sombre, dark and cool character who uses a Rapier, Dagger and 2 old pistols to bring death to any in his path.
* During a fated castle raid he is confronted by a servent of the Devil who has come to take him to Hell. In desperation he strikes an agreement to live the rest of his life in purity (ie no violence etc etc) in an attempt to clense his soul.
* His new purity demeanour is tested repeatedly over the years until he finally breaks it and makes a new attempt on the path to redemption.
Being a fan of Robert E Howard's work I am looking forward to this.
