Midnight Chronicles (2009)

Midnight Chronicles: Directed by Christian T. Petersen. With Charles Hubbell, Matt Amendt, Steve Sweere, Dawn Brodey. In the world of MIDNIGHT, it is a time of overwhelming darkness. After three ages of scheming and war, the dark god Izrador has finally defeated the heroes and armies of the free races. Now, he rules the world of Aryth with an iron fist. Enslaved under the Shadow, the race of men leads an oppressed existence, and the elves and dwarves have retreated to distant forests and mountains, where their desperate resistance is slowly succumbing to the unyielding might of the Shadow. Investigating the disappearance of a legate priest, the infamous Mag Kiln has been ordered by the church to travel to the small Erenlander town of Blackweir. There, he soon becomes entangled in an old mystery and begins to uncover not only the forbidden legacy of the town, but the malevolent, prophetic force that grows within him. MIDNIGHT CHRONICLES is the epic narrative that tells the tale of two legendary characters — one for the cause of good, the other for the cause of evil. This is the story of their rise, their struggle, and ultimately their fate, as their destinies become intertwined with that of the world and the dark god that occupies it.

“First thing i did after watching this movie was go on the internet to see if it actually was the pilot to Midnight the series iu0026#39;d been watching. Unfortunately this wasnu0026#39;t the case which has left me with a very unsatisfied feeling. You do get a good introduction into the world of Midnight, but when you feel the story is just about to take off the ending credits start playing. I just hope the makers of this movie see the actual potential of the story and decide that they have made a pilot after all and not a film that has to carry its own weight. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe acting actually wasnu0026#39;t too bad and the sceneries combined with the computer generated settings gave the movie an authentic feel.”
