DVD Review: Neil Marshall’s ‘Centurion’
Violent historical epics are a somewhat rare commodity, but scarcer are the ones that are actually worth watching. Neil Marshall – who is revered by horror fans for The Descent and loved by almost no one for the action/sci-fi/exploitation monstrosity Doomsday – follows up his genre studio mish-mash by taking a stab at the all-but-forgotten subgenre with Centurion, which comes complete with rolling fireballs and grandiose melee weapon skirmishes. Unfortunately, the film never elevates beyond being average for a variety of reasons, leaving viewers with something merely on the level with Dog Soldiers in terms of entertainment. (more…) READ MORE

Bloody UK Trailer for Neil Marshall’s ‘Centurion’
It’s not horror but I’ll be damned if it doesn’t look bloody as all hell. Beyond the break you’ll find the UK trailer for Neill Marshall’s Centurion, an action adventure film arriving in cinemas on March 23 (no word on U.S. distribution yet). Buzz around EFM is that it’s awesome. Based on the legend of the Ninth Legion, an army of 3000 unstoppable Roman warriors who vanished without trace, Centurion is the tale of their vicious conflict with a murderous adversary, the Picts. Quintus Dias (Michael Fassbender), a Roman corporal, is taken hostage by the Pict King, Gorlacon and the Ninth are charged with bringing him home and ending Pict domination of Britain. Led by General Virilus (Dominic West) and guided by a Pict prisoner and warrior woman named Etain (Olga Kurylenko), the army marches towards enemy territory and finds itself in the midst of a perilous battle with a mysterious foe. Marshall is known for Dog Soldiers, The Descent and Doomsday. (more…) READ MORE
