With Iron Sky making its US premiere at SXSW later this, it’s only right that Hitler and his Nazi’s find other ways to try and make a last ditch effor to win the war even though we all know it’s futile. Up next in the Nazi film world is Richard Raaphorst’s feature film debut, Frankenstein’s Army, a film about der Führer’s attempts to create an army from the dead body parts of his fallen comrades.
The film, which was also co-written by Raaphorst, commenced principal photography on Monday inKarlovy Vary, Czech Republic. Big casting accnouncements are expected to be revealed either today or tomorrow but in the mean time take a look at the synopsis below and the first behind the scenes still from the set. I know I’m curious to see how this flick comes out but what are your thoughts on the subject?

The scientistshave used the legendary Frankenstein’s work to assemble an army ofsuper-soldiers stitched together from the body parts of their fallen comrades -a desperate Hitler’s last ghastly ploy to escape defeat.
