I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

Ralphie (Mark Drake) has bad dreams and undergoes life regression conducted by his friend Claudia (Rosie Akerman) reading from a book. Unlike most people undergoing regression and being the King of Atlantis, he was a Nazi. He was involved in a project called "Operation Community" which was designed to create terror in England prior to the invasion. Meanwhile Ralphie's girlfriend Andrea (Sophie Barker) a Brighton girl, is cheating with Lucas (Miles Jovian) who is Chloe's boyfriend,Ralphie's visions takes them to a rural area of England as they search for his past life and giving Lucas and Andrea to do their rabbit thing. In a subplot, there is a unseen man contacting demons(?) through a black mirror with Nazi symbols so he can enact revenge. The two come together in a slightly unexpected manner resulting in a torture scene that was so-so.The film incorporates a unique script, but fails to deliver the goods. The intensity wasn't felt. And PLOT SPOILER what was that scene where we see Lucas' junk as he is clearly naked, and then later he is wearing underwear? Plot continuity, Please.Guide: F-bomb, sex, brief Miles Jovian's junk.

NAZI VENGEANCE is a very low budget British horror flick, shot in Ireland with a budget slightly higher than a typical indie. After some back story about the Akashic records, the story begins properly when a quartet of hikers venture deep into the countryside, only to find themselves mercilessly hunted by a mysterious stranger with a burning desire for revenge. The film's Nazi link is only evinced in a couple of flashbacks and doesn't really tie in to the main storyline all that well. When it comes down to it, this is nothing more than your usual grubby torture porn outing, although the acting isn't quite as bad as you'd expect. The surprise in the cast is the presence of Julian Glover, fresh off GAME OF THRONES and still going strong despite his advancing years.

The subject of this film could have been interesting, but the production leaves a lot to be desired.It is certainly not the worst film I have ever seen (keeping in mind I am talking about several oh-so-long decades) but it is not a film I would watch twice.The main problem with it seems to be the editing. Several scenes linger far too long without relaying anything to the viewer - they just hang there wasting time. One gets the feeling they were left this long just to fill up the time available.Also in the edit, scenes which seemed about to lead to something interesting just lead to nothing much at all. One is left wondering what the implied drama was all about. A bit like waiting for a big rocket on firework night only to be treated to someone lighting their fag.Continuity is another big problem. Someone (or some people) were not paying detailed attention! If you watch it you will see. Inexcusable in the modern age when a simple mobile phone is capable of recording details of a scene which can be used to set up the next scene.As for the acting, well it is what it is. The cast seemed to stutter along like planks in a fence. A shame, because I am sure there is talent there - it either wasn't brought out because of the lack of director's skill (and editing again) or they didn't have the freedom to interpret their characters.Overall I wouldn't bother with this film unless you have nothing better to do or are distracted by eating a very nice takeaway.

I thought Nazis at the Center of the Earth (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2130142/) was bad, reaaaaaly bad. This movie is one of the worst movies I have ever seen - and I managed to have fun with Attack of the Killer Tomatoes.....but that one was MEANT to be funny, after all....This pile of steaming manure mixes past lives regression, sheer stupidity, Nazis (oh, the Nazis....harder to kill than toenail fungus...) and a zombie-like lack of reflexes from the targeted cast. Actually, if this was a movie about nazi zombies....To the spoilers, then....you've been warned...DON'T WATCH THIS!Two couples. The girlfriend of the troubled one is banging the boyfriend of the psychic (so much for her powers, huh....). The psychic is helping the troubled with a past life regression session, where they (yes, they, because she can see what he sees when she places her hand on his forehead...) discover he was an SS official that terrorised an English hamlet by the end of WWII.So the four set out to hiking in the countryside, looking for the exact place (the session revealed a pretty clear map, with roads, markings, place names....almost Google Maps....). When they get close, troubled guy has a vision and stops. Unfaithful sub-couple goes to the pub, where they are sighted by the disfigured strong man tortured as a child by the damned Nazis.Everybody goes away to set up camp (they are camping on a hilltop, far away from water and with almost nothing to serve as food and drink...). Troubled guy and psychic want to go sightseeing again. As soon as they leave the other two behind, those two get banging again. Then psycho-killer gets around, knocks the guy out and takes them both to a more convenient torturing place. After some gruesome scenes, back to the other two. They shockingly discover they have been cheated upon at the same time that they figure out their cheaters were abducted. Instead of running downhill to call for help and, just possibly, the police, they instead decide to stay in the tent until nightfall to wait for the kidnapper....and he does not disappoint! After getting the other two (yes, no fighting whatsoever....sacrificial lambs, one and all), he returns to the torturing scene. The first guy is dead (presumably to keep him from bringing the film set down - the post he is tied to could have been torn down by a 5-year old..). As our psycho works his way through the skin of the ladies with a blowtorch, troubled guy takes his swiss knife from his back pocket and frees himself. He had a swiss knife. In his back pocket. Psycho guy never checked??? Well, psycho guy gets knocked down after a fight that seemed to be recorded at 1/10 real time (but it wasn't...). Troubled guy frees psychic girl AND LEAVES HIS UNFAITHFUL GIRL tied to the post to....wander around until he conveniently finds psycho guy's satanic room - phone and all.... As he calls for the police, psycho guy is up and with a pitchfork ready to kill him. No, he didn't kill the absolutely unaware girls... So, just as troubled guy is about to get snuffed, psycho girl shoots psycho guy. With a shotgun troubled guy tried to fire at least 4 times and which psycho guy informed was armed with 75 year old shells.... Meanwhile, unfaithful girl flees the scene, her face and arms all burned up. She ends up at a job interview, while psychic girl and troubled guy are having naked fun together. Unfaithful girl's new boss is.......another psycho guy tortured by Nazis!!! Do I see a sequel?Run to the hills!!!! But beware of psycho guys, willya?
