With All Hallowsmas fast approaching, studios are clamouring to promote their Horror product this week, and Nic Cage – yes, the southern, drawling Nic Cage – playing a 14th century knight in upcoming actioner Season of the Witch is certainly one of the weirder offerings scuttling from the bowels of tinseltown.
Tonally it looks fairly straight-laced, with a monstrously be-wigged Cage exorcising a woman who may be causing the Black Death, although the garish colours hint this could be treading a very tricky line between The Masque of the Red Death and Army of Darkness – no guesses which we’re rooting for.
Check out the new trailer and let us know what you think…
