I hope that Black Death is the film that finally earns director Christopher Smith some respect in the U.S.. Smith’s record is already impressive with three great films on his resume, Creep, Triangle and Severance. His newest film will probably make theaters in the U.K., but unfortunately will only get a direct-to-DVD release in the U.S.. Check out our new Black Death gallery below and our first gallery here.

“Medieval England has fallen under the shadow of The Black Death. In this apocalyptic world, filled with fear and superstition, a young monk called Osmund is charged with leading a fearsome knight, Ulric (Sean Bean) and his group of mercenaries to a remote marsh. Their quest is to hunt down a necromancer – someone able to bring the dead back to life. Torn between his love of God and the love of a young woman, Osmund discovers the necromancer, a mysterious beauty called Langiva. After Langiva reveals her Satanic identity and offers Osmund his heart’s desire, the horror of his real journey begins.”
