Flesh + Blood 1985 Dir Paul Verhoeven Full Movie HD 1080p

A band of medieval mercenaries take revenge on a noble Lord who decides not to pay them by kidnapping the betrothed of the noble s son. As the plague and warfare cut a swathe of destruction throughout the land, the mercenaries hole up in a castle and await their fate. The movie was director Paul Verhoeven s reaction to the many movies that, in his view, overly romanticized the Middle Ages. He wanted to show it as a period where brutality, disease, poverty, and hardship were common, and a natural death was a rare thing. ,paulverhoeven, rutgerhauer, medievalmovie
