I can't edit the poll, so I can't add Robin Hood (2010).
Solomon Kane (2009) is a fun B action set in the 1600s. Witches, demons, sword fights, and crucifications.
Fun. |

Still, sometimes the knife crime is a little to close to home. The article doesn't mention it, but this woman was stabbed to death.

Neither are out on video/dvd as far as I know. I doubt Severed Ways will get a big screen release in NZ. Not sure about Outlander, it will probably turn up on DVD eventually. |

So I watched Outlander and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Maybe because my expectations were so low, but the production values were good and not everything about the movie was predictable. |

Another movie about Vikings in America: Severed Ways: The Norse Discovery of America. It looks pretty bad, but I felt the need to share.
