Outpost: Black Sun

Directed by Steve Barker1h 41m2012

A pair of investigators team up with a Special Forces Unit to venture deep inside a war raging between the military and a massive army of Nazi Zombie Stormtroopers. Their mission is to fight their way behind enemy lines, locate the technology at the source of this growing threat and prevent the seemingly inevitable rise of the 4th Reich.

Our read: Outpost: Black Sun (2012) reads as a heavy, breathless, inventive action · horror · zombie entry — extreme in intensity, epic-stakes in scope, cold in temperature, nihilistic in outlook.
