Season of the Witch

Season of the Witch is a 2011 supernatural-themed action adventure period film starring Nicolas Cage and Ron Perlman as former Crusade Knights who must transport a witch to a monastery. Naturally things do not go well.

Not to be confused with Halloween III.

The film provides the following tropes:
"Behman: Fine I guess I'll just have to kill all 600 myself."
 * Actor Allusion: Felson would rather hang than be burnt to death. After all, he probably didn't have much fun the last time.
 * A House Divided: Subverted.
 * Anachronism Stew
 * The Atoner: Behman feels guilty over accidentally killing a woman during a siege.
 * Body Count Competition: Loser buys the drinks. You take the 300 on the left, I'll take the 300 on the right. However they note, that will just leave the score at 300:300.

"Priest: "We're going to need more holy water.""
 * Boisterous Bruiser: Felson, greatly enjoys his fights and is quite a fun guy overall.
 * Burn the Witch: Averted in the prologue where three accused witches are shown being hanged, then drowned in case they're Not Quite Dead.
 * Ceiling Cling / Running On All Fours: The
 * Church Militant: A pretty solid description for the church served by Felson and Behman
 * Conspicuous CG: While the  isn't too badly animated, the digital demon wolf faces are not quite on the same level.
 * Conveniently Timed Attack From Behind
 * Did Not Do the Research: The date stamp at the beginning of the movie (at least at the beginning of the opening battle) is 1332. Some of the warriors in the battle are wearing white mantles/robes with red crosses. While historians argue (because that's what historians do) about what kind of cross they used, they are generally unanimous in the acceptance of the fact that a white mantle with a red cross was a particular emblem of knights of the Order of the Temple (the actual Knights Templar). The problem is that the Order of the Temple was dissolved officially by the Catholic Church in 1314, 18 years prior to the opening of the film. No knight would be wearing the emblem of the Templars after they had been dissolved by papal decree.
 * Everythings Worse With Wolves: Dire wolves, even.
 * Evil Plan: The villain  and the entire movie is the heroes helping them find it.
 * Also a case of Using You All Along.
 * Expy: Nicolas Cage resembles his character from The Sorcerers Apprentice.
 * Game Face: Both witches and wolves have these.
 * Heel Realization: At the start of the film when Behman and Felson find themselves killing innocent women and children, they realize what they've been doing and decide to desert the crusades.
 * Heroic Sacrifice:
 * Hot Witch
 * Irony: Early in the film, Ron Perlman said he would rather be hung to death than burned. During the climax of the film
 * Hey Its That Guy: Well, you might have missed Hammer Horror veteran Christopher Lee actually, as he's the plague-deformed Cardinal.
 * Knight in Sour Armor: Behman.
 * MacGuffin: The Key of Solomon, which is the whole reason for the journey.
 * Naked On Revival:
 * Neck Lift:
 * Not Even Bothering With the Accent: Nic Cage and Ron Perlman play 14th century Europeans with broad American accents. Bizarrely subverted with the supporting characters, most of whom were played by British or European actors. The director apparently instructed them all to speak with American accents, presumably to blend in with the lead actors. Unfortunately, none of them were using the same American accent. And very few of them were using it consistently.
 * Given as it seems to be Central Europe, likely Germany from the place names, English accents make no more sense.
 * No one said the accents had to be English, but making European actors put on American accents to play European characters is a tad counterintuitive.
 * Oh Crap:

 * Oh Crap:

"Accused: "Wait, you said you would spare me!"
 * Offhand Backhand: Done on a charging wolf, no less.
 * Ominous Latin Chanting
 * Our Zombies Are Different:
 * The Plague: The plague.
 * Playing With Fire
 * Retirony:
 * Rope Bridge: The predictably rickety bridge over the gaping chasm.
 * Stealth Pun: Everyone's pronunciation of "Debelzaq".
 * Super Strength: The first clue the girl isn't who she appears.
 * Tempting Fate: As soon as Felson mentioned how he wanted to go back home after this was all over, you know he's dead meat.
 * Trailers Always Spoil: In recent TV spots, it is revealed that
 * The beginning of the movie implies that the girl
 * Use Your Head: Felson is quite fond of this.
 * Xanatos Gambit: The heroes are charged with taking their prison to a monastary for trial and possible execution but whether they arrive safely or not works to their prisoner's advantage.
 * You Said You Would Let Me Go: In the prologue, one of the accused witches confesses thinking her life will be spared.
