The ambitious period piece, a co-production of Chicago-based Dark Sky Films, Los Angeles’ Xyz Films and Pellicola of Amsterdam, was shot on the outskirts of Karlovy Vary, an ancient Czech township known for its hot springs and exquisite film festival. The movie’s shockingly detailed set, however, was the furthest thing from luxury one could imagine, with a closed, scrap-strewn mining colony doubling for wartorn Europe, circa 1947. The story sees a battalion of Russian soldiers finding themselves lost in Eastern Europe and stumbling across a small village ravaged by ghoulish automatons, created by a power-mad descendant (played by Hellboy’s Karel Roden) of the historic Dr. Frankenstein. Cut off from the outside world, the young soldiers must take a stand against the monsters—and the Nazi madmen responsible for their creation.
