"Something else is awakening... beyond good, beyond evil." Starring Vin Diesel, Elijah Wood, Rose Leslie, and Michael Caine, The Last Witch Hunter is teased in a new trailer and poster (via IGN) ahead of its October 23rd release.

"The modern world holds many secrets, but the most astounding secret of all is that witches still live amongst us; vicious supernatural creatures intent on unleashing the Black Death upon the world. Armies of witch hunters battled the unnatural enemy across the globe for centuries, including KAULDER, a valiant warrior who managed to slay the all-powerful QUEEN WITCH, decimating her followers in the process. In the moments right before her death, the QUEEN curses KAULDER with her own immortality, forever separating him from his beloved wife and daughter in the afterlife. Today KAULDER is the only one of his kind remaining, and has spent centuries hunting down rogue witches, all the while yearning for his long-lost loved ones. However, unbeknownst to KAULDER, the QUEEN WITCH is resurrected and seeks revenge on her killer causing an epic battle that will determine the survival of the human race."

Hitting theaters October 23rd from Lionsgate and directed by Breck Eisner (The Crazies remake), The Last Witch Hunter stars Vin Diesel, Elijah Wood, Rose Leslie, Julie Engelbrecht, and Michael Caine.
