Answer
Season of the Witch
Answer
Season of the Witch
The 2011 action film starring Nicolas Cage and Ron Perlman as Teutonic knights is Season of the Witch. The film follows two battle-weary knights who return from the Crusades during the devastation of the Black Death.
Cage plays Behmen von Bleibruck and Perlman plays Felson, companions who lose faith in the religious wars they have been fighting. After returning home, they are ordered to escort a young woman accused of witchcraft to a remote monastery. The journey combines medieval action, supernatural horror and adventure, as the characters question whether the woman is truly responsible for the plague.
Season of the Witch was directed by Dominic Sena, whose other credits include Gone in 60 Seconds and Swordfish. The cast also includes Claire Foy, Stephen Campbell Moore and Christopher Lee. The phrase "Teutonic knights" refers to members of the medieval military order associated with the Crusades and northeastern Europe, although the movie uses historical material as the foundation for a supernatural fantasy.
The title can cause confusion with the 1973 George A. Romero film Season of the Witch, which is an unrelated psychological horror movie.
