Okay, that is some seriously fucked up shit but it wasn’t as bad as I expected.

The story is simple. In 1945 the Nazis escaped the Earth and set up a new headquarters on the Moon. To be exact on the dark side of it. They have a small city there. Surprisingly there are roads (solid German roads) and even schools for little Nazis. The film starts with the Americans landing on the Moon. One of the astronauts is taken captive by the Nazis. And what’s the funniest they discover his smartphone which they use as a tool to power the new Nazi spacehip. They seem to be having a little problem after the battery starts running low. Germans come to Earth to help the Presidential campaign in the US, then they plan the invasion here. Their cool spaceship still can’t work but they manage to power it up in the end. In the meantime, the astronaut’s skin was made white by using the Nazi technology, then he turned back to black, so don’t worry. The huge spacship crashes into the moon, everything seems to get back to normal, but… Nevermind, I’m still shocked after I read what I’ve written.

The director of the film - Timo Vuorensola - is completely unknown to me, the same as most of the cast, except of Udo Kier, who I recognise from:

Andy Warhol’s Dracula (1987), My Own Private Idaho (1991), Europa (1991), Johnny Mnemonic (1995), Barb Wire (1996), Breaking the Waves (1996), Armageddon (1998), Blade (1998), Dancer in the Dark (2000), Dogville (2003), Grindhouse (2007) and Melancholia (2011)

Now, how can you play in Von Trier’s films as well as in the crap with Pamela Anderson? Come on…

The only cool thing about the film was the music by Laibach - one of my favourite filmmusic composers. Plus, the Nazi base on the Moon looked magnificent.
