Fun post from hauntmeister who got to be propmeister for a History Channel sword-n-sandal chop-em-up called Bible Battles. Looks like it was a blast, and he (and one of the extras) took lots of pictures.
And sometime today I've got to see if I can find a laundromat with an industrial washing machine, because the makeup people got blood on the %$#@ ceiling, ten feet up, when we did Judges 4:22! They normally do horror movies.

Glad you liked it!

Yeah, the director was definitely going for full-on gore with this production. In three days, I saw three beheadings, one spike through the head, and a slashed throat. And those were only the deaths shown in closeup, where the makeup people had to get involved. They literally had blood by the gallon. I mean it. It comes in jugs.
