Well... this was different. A deadly serious Prime Video fantasy in the Sword & Sorcery vein with a decent amount of spouting gory horror and decapitations. It's a deeply dour and serious take on a film that could have been a cheesy Conan knock-off if it were made in the 80s.

It's about a pair of armored knights who set out on a quest to stop a prophecy about a witch. They wind up in a dark hell dimension and must fight three bosses to achieved a magic sword / prevent the end of days.

This film is dead serious about its massive Dungeons and Dragons-like fantasy quest. Though I'd also say it's inspired by video games like Hellblade and Dark…

In this movie. A fearless knight braves a deadly realm to save the Chosen One's soul. Facing witches, demons, and brutal foes , he discovers her return could ignite chaos and doom humanity.

First off, I went into this blindly and was pleasantly surprised.

In the opening scene were introduced to a young Avalon and her mother being burned at the stake because of red haired women deems to be the prophecy of the Chosen One. Next were introduced to Boodie ( Jeremy Ninaber) and his brother William ( Matthew Ninaber) as they are fighting off demons and knights. Then Boodie decides to take the dive into the demons water and be taken to the under realm.

Now this has…

Back on my Dark Fantasy Bullshit with this grimdark bit of bloody swords n sorcery.

From the director of the pretty okay Death Valley (the one with the soldiers and monster guy in the underground bunker or whatever).
Played completely straight without a wink or a quip, following a knight following a prophecy into hell to find the chosen one and collect the magic video game stones from the level bosses.

It could have used some more self-awareness. Not to say I was clamoring for jokey-jokes, farts, or pratfalls; it is kind of refreshing in a way to just have an earnest, serious, nerd-ass knights n witches n demons dealio. But it's super straight-faced through the bloodshed and the magic…

A Knight’s War is a boring and confusing fantasy horror film. I really wanted to like this movie more than I did. Despite being incredibly disappointed, there were some things that I did like about it. I really liked the production design and the cinematography. The different settings in this film looked really good but they weren’t utilized well. The cinematography is also surprisingly pretty good. This movie is visually appealing which I do appreciate.

My issues with this movie are the mediocre acting and confusing storyline. The acting in this movie is so bad. It feels really stiff and unnatural. It doesn’t help that the characters are really uninteresting. The story and plot were extremely convoluted. They tried to…

На бекдропе я и Майк Камкин 🍒💋🍷🍓

Мне знакомый сказал, что это лучше второй «Дюны», я поверил, проверил, понервничал, попотел, плескался водой от графоуни, передергивать не стал, потом пошел поел и пишу, пиная перебарщивающий с повествованием фильм, вот реально он относится к тёмным фэнтези по факту своего референса на «Дарк Соулс», тут также главный герой, созданный по лекалам одноручного рыцаря, бродит по подземельям в поисках утраченной души, а мы можем вдохнуть в себя много мистицизма, рыцарской брани и фанатского порыва творить что-то свое.

Ребята уже делали подобные картины, собираясь теми же группами, в этот раз они дотянулись до японской игровой индустрии с вечным днём сурка и средневековой бесятиной с суккубами, скелетами и восставшими из ада. Короче, много вроде комплиментарных од…
