Half the time, the uniforms aren't right, oh, and the cgi is on spot (this whole review is basically sarcasm) A tank falls on you? A ghost co,es back and kills you? Alright, definitely realistic! Let's not even get started on how creepy some of the characters are! Glad I watched this, so I could get a good laugh. Glad I had prime so I didn't waste any money! but really though, gotta love the weird woman, women* I should say. BUT JUST HILARIOUS

First of all, this "based on actual events" gets thrown around a lot these days. Yes its true, WWII did happen. That's probably as far as I would accept the "true events" aspect is. It's a war movie with a supernatural theme running through it. The acting is not bad and it takes us back to the WWII movies of the 60's and 70's where the nazi's were always played by Brits. There is one ss Lt that has a German accent for some unknown reason, as everyone else in nazi gray has a British accents. It has some hard to follow parts, the spontaneous combustion and resurrection in some kind of time warp for example. Thats just one of the many flaws that you will come across in this movie. If you're looking for Oscar (tm) caliber performances or writing, look elsewhere. If you want a movie that doesn't take much thought and is a decent time killer, give this one a try. Don't expect much in the way of horror though. Its fun for what it is, a "B" movie that knows its a "B" movie.

I just watched this on Amazon Prime and I appear to be the 12th reviewer, so I'll offer some viewing tips.In short, when one group enters a haunted forest to reclaim a supernatural relic for Hitler's occult researchers and goes missing another group is sent in. We learn why they want the relic and some nasty stuff about the SS, too.First of all, the movie's story-line is fine if you've ever read old science fiction: people can appear to be killed in one place/time yet become part of another place/time with knowledge of the first. But you won't always see that played out as soldiers have to make split-second decisions to shoot now then talk later (but maybe no one's left to hear, or you have a reason to hide what you know).Ignore the anachronisms. You're not going to find an adviser for historical accuracy on a small budget, so why worry? Spoiler: The soldier with the tomahawk has some Native American blood, so he has the weapons and expertise to use blades as killing tools. It is explained, but other reviewers apparently missed that conversation.Most importantly, you absolutely must pay attention to the little clues along the way or you'll miss something hugely important.Now that the boards are gone and no questions are being answered in the FAQ I'm hoping more reviewers will chime in with spoilers and tidbits of helpful info. Remember to tick the box if you don't want to see spoiler reviews.

I rented this movie from Sky and to be honest if there has ever been a bigger waste of 99p I can't think of it. Paper thin plot, dreadful stilted acting and a script that would disgrace a masturbating teenager. Pathetic special effects, laughable editing, a different colour every shot. Worst of all the direction. I do not know when I have seen worse direction in a film. I know this is low budget stuff, but surely there must be better projects for people to throw their money at? I just read that it won an award in Marbella. Perhaps they felt some sympathy for it. I didn't. It was a waste of 99p and 99 minutes of my life, neither of which I will get back. I can't believe the director will get another script. Perhaps he will, I shall certainly look out for his name and that of the writer- specifically so that I can keep their next straight-to-bargain-TV release at several arms' lengths.
