Black Death
dir. Christopher Smith · 2010
A knight and his band of soldiers venture into a village rumored to be untouched by the plague, driven by the Church's mandate to investigate claims of a necromancer. As they delve deeper into the village's secrets, the line between faith and horror blurs, revealing the darkness that lies within human belief. Watching this film is an unsettling experience, as it immerses you in a world where the supernatural intertwines with the harsh realities of life and death.
As the plague decimates medieval Europe, rumours circulate of a village immune from the plague. There is talk of a necromancer who leads the village and is able to raise the dead. A fearsome knight joined by a cohort of soldiers and a young monk are charged by the church to investigate. Their journey is filled with danger, but it's upon entering the village that their true horror begins.
