It’s Alive! Check Out The Red Band Trailer For ‘FRANKESTEIN’S ARMY’
How do you make Nazis even more evil and despicable? Several films have already had Nazi Zombies crawl out of their graves. How about combining the basic idea of the Frankenstein story with that of the Nazi regime. And that my friends is how Frankenstein’s Army was born. Russian soldiers at the end of WWII stumble upon a Nazi lab when they encounter all sorts of hellish creatures in director Richard Raaphorst’s upcoming film. Rogier Samuels, who worked on all three of The Lord of the Rings films, is behind the special effects here which are easily the highlight of this new red band trailer. Simply put, this makes Victor Frankenstein look like an angel curing cancer in comparison. Yes, the trailer is a little wacky; yes, a character even breaks the fourth wall and addresses the camera at one point; yes, there’s an unnecessary dubstep track permeating the last half of the trailer; yet, I’m still excited to check this one out simply based on the outlandish art direction and imaginative effects work. Are you ready to enlist in Frankenstein’s Army? Check out the bloody trailer below. The film opens in select cities July 26th.

Somewhere between growing up on a steady diet of Saturday morning trips to the local comic-book shop, collecting an unhealthy amount of action figures, and frequent viewings of Ray Harryhausen and Hammer Horror films, came forth a nerdy boy that was torn between journalism and the arts. In high school, Michael found himself writing a movie column for the school newspaper. Yet, he went on to get a BFA in Studio Art at Webster University. When not writing about films, you can still find him discussing classic horror, collecting action figures, and reading Batman. Clearly, not much has changed.
