Storyline

The year is 1945, the closing stages of WW2, and a German scientist by the name of Klausener is working on a frightening new technology that has the power to create an immortal Nazi army. Flash forward to present day, and a NATO task force is hurriedly deployed to Eastern Europe, where a sinister enemy appears to be mercilessly killing everything in its path. But this is no ordinary foe. Only Helena, a gutsy investigator on the trail of the notorious war-criminal Klausener, accepts the reality of that they are facing a battalion of Nazi Storm-Troopers, a veritable zombie army on the march. With the help of Wallace, a man who's been chasing Nazi secrets for years, the two of them team up with a Special Forces Unit to venture deep behind enemy lines. Their mission to fight their way back to the source of this evil army and prevent the seemingly inevitable rise of the 4th Reich.

User Reviews

No brains needed here

When a civilian outruns a military unit, by showing up earlier at a site that both are heading for ... well to me, that says a lot. But it's not the only thing that is most unfortunate for this movie. A movie that looks more than solid and has actors you may recognize and like. Doesn't change the fact, that you get a by the numbers (at best) story or some silly "twists" at its worst moments.

One of the soldier characters was my favorite, the guy portraying him did a more than solid job and was really outshining the other actors. A downfall (no wordplay here) from the original Outpost, this really is nothing you need to see.
