Medieval Weapons in Hollywood

I gotta tell ya, I was flipping through the TV channels this weekend and caught a movie called "The Blood of Heroes". Don't ask me why I was still up at 2am on a Saturday night, but I was. If you didn't notice, we completely changed the navigation of the site and included categories which should make it easier for everyone to navigate without getting lost. Anyway, I started watching this movie and honestly could not stop. Its an old movie with no special effects and it all takes place in a barren desert type land and inside an underground coliseum but the battle scenes were just awesome! These are real gladiators and they used real medieval weapons. When I say medieval weapons, I mean some serious crude handmade weapons here. In the movie, its like fair game...anything goes. The way these warriors used these spiked club maces and flails were amazing. I have seen movies that spilled blood and guts but this movie wins 4 stars for the shear amount of flesh just torn away from the bone. If this was how it was in medieval times, I am glad I live in the modern world with modern weapons. If you get a chance, I highly recommend you rent this movie and when you get done, come on back and visit our site for some medieval weapons for your collection.
