A better film than I was expecting

Warning: Spoilers
Any film with Nicholas Cage or Ron Perleman in it is usually a stinker.

One with both? Actually, not that bad. It's like their awfulness cancel each other out.

The plot is that they play two crusading knights who return from the Crusades(which were pretty much over by 1347) are enlisted by the church to escort a suspected witch to a monastery with the last copy of the Key Of Solomon so they can expunge a demon from her. Except there really is a demon in her and she wants to get to the monastery to destroy the last copy.

The movie itself isn't that bad. It portrays a grimy, not pleasant vision of the "Dark Ages", and Cage and Perleman play their roles pretty well. There's some CGI action schlock at the end, but it isn't overdone.
