It must be Christmas! Two new videos were released today for Michael Bassett's live action version of Robert E. Howard's creation known as Solomon Kane.

The first is a clip of "The Final Assault on the Castle" wherein Solomon and his band of men face up to the Masked Overlord.

Next is a behind-the-scenes "making-of" the creatures from the film with the creators.

Max Von Sydow (The Exorcist), Pete Postlethwaite (The Omen remake), Rachel Hurd-Wood (Perfume: The Story of a Murderer), and Alice Krige (Silent Hill) all star in the strange tale of a 16th Century Puritan tormented by his past evils.

Synopsis
The first part in a trilogy series, Solomon Kane is an epic adventure adapted from the classic pulp stories by Robert E. Howard, creator of "Conan the Barbarian." Solomon Kane (James Purefoy) is a 16th Century soldier who learns that his brutal and cruel actions have damned him. Determined to redeem himself, Kane swears to live a life of peace and goodness but is forced to fight once more when a dark power threatens the land.
