Poster Drop: SOLDIERS OF THE DAMNED{0}

Viking Films and Blackdog Productions have released an intriguing poster for their upcoming horror film, Soldiers of the Damned, which screens at the Berlin Film Festival on February 7.

The film, set on the Eastern front in 1944, follows Major Kurt Fleischer (Gil Darnell), war-weary commander of an elite troop of German soldiers, after he is ordered to escort a female scientist (Miriam Cooke) into a mysterious forest behind enemy lines to retrieve an ancient relic. As his men begin to disappear in strange circumstances, Fleischer realises that the scientist is part of the Nazis’ occult department and there is something in the forest that is far more deadly than the Russians. The film also stars Lucas Hansen (The Human Centipede 2: Full Sequence) and Nicky Bell (Awaydays) (and, if the poster is anything to go by, William S. Burroughs) and marks the debut feature for TV, commercial and music video director, Mark Nuttall.
