Black Death
In an age of darkness, one man will face the ultimate battle against evil.
Directed by Christopher Smith
Produced by Egoli Tossell Film, The Post Republic
A grim medieval horror film that uses plague, witchcraft, and religious persecution to explore faith, evil, and the darkness lurking beneath claims of salvation.
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.
