T's Trailer Park: Iron Sky, or rather, Nazi's on the Moon



Towards the end of World War II the Nazi scientists made a significant breakthrough in anti-gravity. From a secret base built in the Antarctic, the first Nazi spaceships were launched in late ‘45 to found the military base Schwarze Sonne (Black Sun) on the dark side of the Moon. This base was to build a powerful invasion fleet and return to take over the Earth once the time was right. Now it’s 2018, and it’s the time for the first American Moon landing since the 70s. Meanwhile the Nazi invasion, that has been over 70 years in the making, is on its way, and the world is goose-stepping towards its doom. 


I have chosen to feature this trailer here for two reasons:

1) The use of the word "goose-stepping" in the synopsis.

2) That beautiful image above with the Nazi's headed back to Earth, after plotting for 70 years (Nazi's certainly hold a grudge), in genuine flying saucers of vintage design.

Watch the trailer...after the jump!



Its a comfort to know I won't run out of options for the now legendary, Bad Movie Night!

 You can add this to the list.  3) The tagline: Get Ready. The Fourth Reich is Here




Good Day

If you screen this for bad movie night .... I am SO there!!

Hoping for another Panic Button (aka.. Facebook on a Plane) are you? Me too. With this beautifully preposterous premise, I’ve high hopes for this one. I need something after the Conan the Barbarian remake never lived up to the early promise of a bat-shit birth sequence where Conan’s warrior mother is mortally wounded on the battlefield and proceeds to beg Conan’s father to give her an emergency Cesarean via dagger so she can see the baby just once. She survives long enough to chew some more scenery and name the baby Conan. It was awesome, as was the intro sequence with voice-over by Morgan Freeman (!!!) but it was all downhill from there.

I thought Conan was pretty good
