A movie about Nazi zombies – why am I not more excited? The Outpost franchise started some years ago with a Ray Stevenson led action thriller about German WWII bastards looking for that war defining game-changer – but this isn’t Call of Duty. Outpost was fun, don’t get me wrong, but we’re now three films into a franchise that most horror fans didn’t even know existed, and that’s the disheartening vibe our most recent film embodies. Doing nothing to expand upon the idea of shambling undead German soldiers, Outpost: Rise Of The Spetsnaz re-introduces the idea of Nazi zombies and does absolutely nothing worth noting. More tired franchise ideas and generic genre play with a dash of gooey, gory distractions – did you expect anything else?
During battle, a group of Russian Spetsnaz soldiers are taken captive by German forces looking to test their new breed of soldier.

As we often do, especially when dealing with Part 3s that originate from outside of North America, we'll open with a recap. Outpost (2007) gave us some modern-day mercenaries who stumble across an undead creature that's been waiting for victims since WWII. Outpost 2: Black Sun (2012) focused on a platoon of Nato experts who respond to the previous carnage -- which leads to even more carnage. The second chapter gave us a few glimpses of the WWII origins of the Nazi Zombie Stormtrooper Monsters...
... but it's Outpost 3: Rise of the Spetsnaz (2014) that takes us back to 1945 and offers a fitfully amusing prequel to this progressively sillier indie horror franchise. As a horror junkie who sort of enjoyed the first two Outpost flicks, even I'll have to admit that Part 3 is probably the weakest of the lot, but screenwriter Rae Brunton, who co-wrote the previous chapters, has just enough ideas to...

Indie Spotlight Review: Nobody Can Cool

Nobody Can Cool is the rather impressive directorial debut from up-and-coming filmmaking duo Dpyx, Marcy Boyle and Rachel Holzman, who crafted a blisteringly taut and thoughtful indie crime thriller with a palpable sense of tension from start to finish. A gritty and engaging tale of deceit, violence and desperation, Nobody Can Cool is anchored by a breakout performance by Nick Principe (best known from his work in the Laid to Rest series, Madison County and...

The zombie warfare continues from Outpost (2008) and Outpost: Black Sun (2012) to Outpost: Rise of the Spetsnaz. Viewers of the second film, Outpost: Black Sun, might be surprised to hear of a second sequel. After all, the bunker housing zombie Nazi commandos was completely destroyed at the end of the film. However, a couple characters did survive. Now, the action shifts from German shocktroopers to the Spetsnaz, Russia' elite paramilitary group. This third story promises to explore the origins of the zombie epidemic. Now, the first poster for the film is available with some early cast and crew details also showing. Outpost: Rise of the Spetsnaz is currently filming. More story details to come. Director: Kieran Parker. Writer: Rae Brunton. Cast: Bryan Larkin, Iván Kamarás and Michael McKell. *Outpost: Black Sun has released in Germany with a North American release date unknown. Source: Outpost: Rise of the Spetsnaz at the Film...
