Title: Attn: Sun_Helmet--Solomon Kane movie status?
Post by: Spadaccino on May 05, 2004, 07:34:46 AM
Rafael,

I remember way back when, you had mentioned that a SOLOMON KANE flick was in the works.

I recently saw a poster for the new Van Helsing movie, and I couldn't help but notice that they have apparently "borrowed" SK's "look", and it got me to thinking...

What's up with the Solomon Kane movie project?  Will our Puritan Swashbuckler ever see the light of day, cinematically speaking?

Thanks,

Dave/Spad/TFS

TFS/Dave,

Haven't heard a peep on the Solomon Kane film... I did see VH and saw the resemblance right away. Beyond that it's rather lots of flash with no substance. They should have made the SK film instead.
However, I do have some film related info  on another legendary swordsman.... (which unfortunately I can't divulge ...yet)

;)

Yeah, I saw it too--the 1st half-hour was interesting (especially the cross-cultural, secret base under the Vatican, where Catholic priests worked side-by-side with Buddhist monks, Sikhs, etc., in order to fight Evil), but after that, it just got bogged down in a lot of action that went... nowhere.

Agreed!
