Unsheathe SWORD OF VENGEANCE on Blu-ray & DVD May 26

From the creator of HAMMER OF THE GODS, and starring Stanley Weber (BORGIA) and Annabelle Wallis (ANNABELLE), comes the medieval action epic  SWORD OF VENGEANCE, debuting on Blu-ray and DVD May 26 from Well Go USA Entertainment. First time feature film Director Jim Weedon was influenced by Japanese samurai epics and Italian spaghetti westerns for this action-packed film.

In 1066, following the brutal genocide ordered by William the Conqueror in order to control the unrelenting Rebels of the North, it’s a world of dark times and dark deeds. After years of slavery, a Norman Prince (Weber) returns to the lost lands to seek revenge on his father’s murderer by leading a band of farmers in bloody retribution. Rounding out the notable cast are Ed Skrein (“Game of Thrones”), Dave Legeno (Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows) and Karel Roden (The Bourne Supremacy).

 Bonus materials include interviews with Director Jim Weedon and Producers Rupert Preston and Huberta Von Liel, as well as segments that take the viewer behind-the-scenes of several key sequences from SWORD OF VENGEANCE.

The critics are impressed:

Frank Scheck of The Hollywood Reporter said SWORD OF VENGEANCE featured:

“enough clanging sword fights, severed limbs, slit throats and bare-bones dialogue to satisfy genre fans …”

EMPIRE says of SWORD OF VENGEANCE:

“Director Jim Weedon goes for an…. over-stylised look, all color-leeched vistas, time-lapsed clouds and slo-mo riding.”

Andy Lea of The Daily Star claims

“the fights are entertainingly staged and the sparse dialogue is amusing. At 86 minutes it feels refreshingly brisk”

Synopsis:

A Norman Prince, freed from slavery, seeks revenge on his father’s murderer –his ruthless uncle, Earl Durant (Karel Roden). Gaining the trust of a band of exiled farmers, he leads them into battle against Durant, exploiting them in his quest to satisfy his code of honor. Will the prince sacrifice everything and everyone to quench his thirst for bloody retribution?
