Armed with a rapier and flintlock pistols, Solomon Kane (James Purefoy) dresses in black, his pale face and cold eyes shadowed by a hat. He is a true rogue, blasting and slashing forward on a mission of pillage and plunder in war-torn North Africa in the late 1500s.

His newfound piety is put to the test when he is forced to return to his murderous ways to save England from the grasp of evil.
