Season of the Witch

Last night I was watching a few of the extra features on the Scott Pilgrim vs. The World DVD set. I also watched an episode of Alfred Hitchcock Presents on DVD, which was a pretty good episode.

There was a lot of snow on the ground again today. I went along to get my groceries for the coming week. Then I went up to the movies to see Season of the Witch, directed by Dominic Sena. The movie is set in the 14th century and tells the story of two knights (played by Nicolas Cage and Ron Perlman) who return from the Crusades to find their home ravaged by the Black Death. Arriving in a town, they are ordered to help transport a young woman (Claire Foy) accused of witchcraft, who is believed to have brought down the plague by sorcery, to a remote monestary. Mostly it was a pretty bad movie, but it did have it's moments. It will probably become a cult film in the future. It's reviewed over at Permanently Weird.
