If you find yourself reading about all the remakes, comic movies and sequels, and are desperate for something original, how about something featuring a group of Nazis who secretly retreated to the moon during WWII and are preparing their invasion of Earth?

That's the premise behind IRON SKY, an ambitious indie (descibed as a dark scifi comedy set in the year 2018) that's been slowly coming together for a while now. The team behind the project are currently pushing it at Cannes, and just announced an addition to the cast -- genre veteran Udo Kier, who you've seen in everything from FLESH FOR FRANKENSTEIN/BLOOD FOR DRACULA to SUSPIRIA to BLADE to the remake of HALLOWEEN.

Kier joins other German actors Julia Dietze, Tilo Prückner and Götz Otto (TOMORROW NEVER DIES), who'll be trying to establish the Fourth Reich. The US cast will be announced soon. Meanwhile, click the pic to check out a groovy "motion poster" and visit the official site, and see the original teaser below.

I'm highly interested in this one. I read about it and apparently it's going to be a dark comedy similar to dr. stranglove. I don't know any of the people behind this one though. Who knows how it will end up. This has the potential to be really awesome or really terrible and forgettable. Hopefully it is an intelligent comedy and not corny comedy.

Cool Flying Saucers
Very cool,yet bizarre premise-some of the coolest looking flying saucers I've saw on film for some time. This looks more like a video game teaser commercial.

Zieg Heil!
That looks to cool...
I have trouble with that motorcycle though...but still very promising.
Didn't History of the World Part I said something also about "Hitler on Ice" ?

Yeah Buddah...
Bird doo-doo can be a real mood killer.

Despite that, I think this looks really promising.

cool ?
cool for almost the whole trailer, i got a real "sky captain" feel from it, until the bird-drop ending, where i was taken completely out of the groove i was in.

Does this mean we'll finally get "Jews in Space" as promised in History of the World Part I?

As long as they have Hitlers head in a jar, or in some cybernetic Robocop style powersuit, then I will be there with jackboots on.
