Holy S#!t this looks amazing! It's incredible to think this is NOT a Hollywood film, but an independently produced feature from Finnish filmmakers. In case you haven't heard of it, or just want a refresher, here's the synopisis:
NAZIS ON THE MOON!
...oh, the official synopsis:
In the last moments of World War II, a secret Nazi space program evaded destruction by fleeing to the Dark Side of the Moon. During 70 years of utter secrecy, the Nazis construct a gigantic space fortress with a massive armada of flying saucers.The fact that German character actor Udo Kier makes an appearance is a stroke of sheer genius--on his part and the filmmakers'.
When American astronaut James Washington (Christopher Kirby) puts down his Lunar Lander a bit too close to the secret Nazi base, the Moon Führer (Udo Kier) decides the glorious moment of retaking the Earth has arrived sooner than expected. Washington claims the mission is just a publicity stunt for the President of the United States (Stephanie Paul), but what else could the man be but a scout for the imminent attack by Earth forces? The Fourth Reich must act!
Two Nazi officers, ruthless Klaus Adler (Götz Otto) and idealistic Renate Richter (Julia Dietze), travel to Earth to prepare the invasion. In the end when the Moon Nazi UFO armada darkens the skies, ready to strike at the unprepared Earth, every man, woman and nation alike, must re-evaluate their priorities.
The film opens sometime this April.

I saw that a bit earlier. It is awesome!
ReplyDeleteThat looks fantastic!
ReplyDeleteThe final trailer looks so utterly different from the first one - the teaser they used when they startetd crowdfunding - that I am a bit torn over this.
ReplyDeleteThe 2008 teaser looked as if this film was going to be in the vein of Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow. But this new one looks more like ID4 and Armageddon.
I really hope that the song from the first teaser is still in the film. I liked that a lot!
Yeah, I think I remember that teaser too--I guess they got some major funding since then!
ReplyDeleteOMG THAT LOOKS AWESOME!!!
