81. "Overlord" (2018)

<p>Kind-of a Halloween episode tonight, as World War II Movie Night does 2018's "Overlord." Mega-producter J.J. Abrams brings us this zombie gorefest that's also an homage to "Nazi'ploitation," a mostly-'70s genre that saw horror, thrillers, and even pornos centered around history's most reliable villains. So turn off your brain and enjoy the fast-paced action as a D-Day unit behind enemy lines in France has a timely mission before the boats hit the beaches; complications arise when they stumble upon secret experiments meant to ensure a 1,000-year Reich!... Asides include numerous observations about horror and exploitation, the African-American experience in the War, and WWII movies with weirdly modern touches. </p> <p>Drop us a line at <a href= "mailto:worldwartwomovienight@gmail.com">worldwartwomovienight@gmail.com</a></p> <p>Check out our X/Twitter at <a href= "http://twitter.com/WWIIMovieNight">http://twitter.com/WWIIMovieNight</a> </p>
