Neil Marshall At It Again

The new Centurion movie trailer is out and posted below. The main reason I'm looking so forward to this is that it's written and directed by one of my favorite directors, Neil Marshall. He's responsible for one of my favorite horror movies of the last decade, The Descent, and also a couple of other films I really like, Dog Soldiers and Doomsday. If those movies and this trailer are any indication, this ought to be another bloody good time.

Centurion is set during the war between Roman soldiers and Pict tribesmen during the 2nd century Roman conquest of Britain. Michael Fassbender stars as Quintus Dias, Roman centurion and son of a legendary gladiator who leads a group of soldiers on a raid of a Pict camp to rescue a captured general (Dominic West). The son of the Pict leader is murdered during the raid, and the Romans find themselves hunted by a seemingly unstoppable group of the Pict's most vicious and skilled warriors, led by a beautiful and deadly tracker (Olga Kurylenko), and hell bent on revenge.
