During the reign of the Vikings, Kainan, a man from a far-off world, crash lands on Earth, bringing with him an alien predator known as the Moorwen. Though both man and monster are seeking revenge for violence committed against them, Kainan leads the alliance to kill the Moorwen by fusing his advanced technology with the Viking's Iron Age weaponry.
In 709 A.D., in the Iron Age, a spacecraft crashes in the Viking kingdom of Herot, Norway, and the pilot Kainan (Jim Caviezel) survives. He turns the beacon on; learns the language and culture of the planet using a machine; and finds that the predator, Moorwen, that he was transporting, had escaped. While chasing the alien monster, he finds a village completely destroyed and is arrested by the warrior Wulfric (Jack Huston), believing that he killed the locals. Kainan is brought to Herot as a prisoner.Written by

I must say that this film was a great surprise, not only because of my personal taste for sci-fi / fantasy flicks, but because this production is flawless.
I believe Howard McCain is set to be a true revelation as film maker and screen writer. There is no single bad moment in all the film.
Great work in photography and editing make of this film a visual accomplishment.
James Caviezel, John Hurt and Ron Perlman performances are excellent.
All FX are achieved, and the score by Geoff Zanelli is one to remember.
Maybe is something that we all have seen before, but never with this kind of achievement.
For all sci-fi / fantasy fans, this one is a MUST!
