Released early 2010, ''Solomon Kane'' is based loosely on Creator/RobertEHoward's character of the same name. The film begins with Solomon Kane, an English mercenary, sacking a Spanish-occupied fortress in 17th-century North Africa. After easily dispatching any guards unfortunate enough to stand in his way, Solomon's men are set upon by demons and only Kane himself reaches the throne room. The treasures within is vast, but much to his horror, Solomon finds he is not alone.

The film itself is unashamedly over-the-top with some gritty realism thrown in-between the demons and witches being slain. Its dark atmosphere and James Purefoy's lead performance has gotten a decent amount of praise, while on the other hand, the straight forward plot and out-of-place finale have been seen as a weakness.
