Spartacus: War Of The Damned review – 3×07: ‘Mors Indecepta’

Trapped in between armies on a snowy mountain ridge with a horrific snow storm approaching isn’t great for morale. ‘Mors Indecepta’ shows that such conditions can easily lead to a battle of the bros as Crixus (Manu Bennett) and Spartacus (Liam McIntyre) fight it out AGAIN in the battle for dominance of the slave rebellion.

Spartacus: War Of The Damned review – 3×06: ‘Spoils Of War’

Haircuts, branding and quartering – oh my! Spartacus removes the titular character as we focus on how the Romans celebrate victory in a unique episode that seems designed to realign our sympathies with the rebels (despite the horrors they inflicted on their Roman prisoners). ‘Spoils Of War’ ups the ante as Crassus (Simon Merrells) takes possession of the city of Sinuessa and orders a pretty despicable celebration in honour of man of the hour, Caesar (Todd Lasance).
Too bad the future victim of Brutus is too peeved to truly enjoy it – what with assassinations attempts and annoyance that the rebel king hasn’t been caught serving as distractions. Naturally he deals with these set-backs the only way a grown man can: he cuts off his long blonde locks. Makes sense to me!
