Centurion Brings the Pain in this Red Band Trailer

Magnet Releasing will be distributing the historical epic Centurion July 23rd on Video-on-demand and in theatres August 27th. The film now has a new Red Band trailer for the film, which shows much of the bloodshed from the production. Centurion is historically acurate from a quick overview as the Ninth Legion invaded Britain in 43 AD led by Emperor Claudius and was later defeated in 61 AD during a massive rebellion. Plus, the film highlights action with one Roman platoon going against a multitude to escape their previous routing. Watch the full clip inside and imagine a world at war for much of the 1st Century.

The synopsis for Centurion here:

"AD 117, the Roman Empire stretches from Egypt to Spain, and East as far as the Black Sea. But in northern Britain, the relentless onslaught of conquest has ground to a halt in face of the guerrilla tactics of an elusive enemy: the savage and terrifying Picts.

Quintus Dias (Fassbender), sole survivor of a Pictish raid on a Roman frontier fort, marches north with General Virilus' (West) legendary Ninth Legion, under orders to wipe the Picts from the face of the earth and destroy their leader Gorlacon. But when the legion is ambushed on unfamiliar ground, and Virilus taken captive, Quintus faces a desperate struggle to keep his small platoon alive behind enemy lines.

Enduring the harsh terrain and evading their remorseless Pict pursuers led by revenge-hungry Pict Warrior Etain (Kurylenko), the band of soldiers race to rescue their General and to reach the safety of the Roman frontier" (Trailer).

Release Date: July 23rd, 2010 (VOD) and August 27th, 2010 (Theatres).
