- Synopsis
Captain Solomon Kane is a brutally efficient 16th Century killing machine. Armed with his signature pistols, cutlass and rapier, he and his men unleash their bloodlust as they fight for England in wars on all continents. As the story opens, Kane and his men are carving a bloody path through hordes of defenders in northern Africa. But when Kane decides to attack a mysterious nearby castle to plunder its rumored riches, things start to get strange. It turns out that the castle is inhabited by evil demons but Kane and his men push on deeper, hell-bent for treasure. His men are picked off one by one and eventually Kane is left alone facing down a ten-foot beast: The Reaper. The demon tells Kane that he's come from Hell specifically to get him. Though Kane manages to escape, he knows that he must redeem himself by renouncing violence and living a life of peace and purity.
