Greetings, and welcome back to Horror Business. We have one awesome episode in store for you guys. On this episode we’re discussing 1993’s Full Eclipse and 1995’s Project Metalbeast. First and foremost we want to give a shoutout to our sponsors over at Lehigh Valley Apparel Creations, the premiere screen-printing company of the Lehigh Valley. Chris Reject and his merry band of miscreants are ready to work with you to bring to life your vision of a t-shirt for your business, band, project, or whatever else it is you need represented by a shirt, sweater, pin, or coozy. Head on over to www.xlvacx.com to check them out. Also, thank you to our Patreon subscribers. Your support means the world to us and we are eternally grateful for that support. Thanks! We start by talking about what we’ve seen or done lately in the field of horror. Liam begins by talking about seeing Land Of Mine. Justin talks about watching Under The Silver Lake and Disobedience, two non-horror films. First up is 1993’s Full Eclipse. We begin by giving a brief outline of the film. We talk about the movie is a weird combination of ‘90s comic book movies and ‘90s cop movies. The stereotypical nature of the film in that it has all the tropes of 90s action films is discussed, as is some of the tropes the movie leans in on frequently. The various plotholes of the movie are picked apart, as is the design of the werewolves, and Liam describes his concept of werewolf films living and dying on the design of the werewolf. Our final summation is that the movie could be a lot of fun if the creators of the film had a bigger budget and had leaned further into the more comic book elements of the film. Up next is 1995’s Project: Metalbeast. We begin by giving a rough outline of the film and picking apart some of the ridiculous part of it. We discuss the sub par werewolf design, the bizarre and insane nature of the plot, and how nothing in the movie really makes any sense. As always thanks to everyone and anyone who donated on Patreon, checked this episode out, or shared a tweet/shared a post on FB/gave us love by recommending us to someone. We love you forever for listening.

País Dinamarca Dirección Martin Zandvliet Guion Martin Zandvliet Música Sune Martin Fotografía Camilla Hjelm Reparto Roland Møller, Louis Hofmann, Mikkel Boe Følsgaard, Laura Bro, Joel Basman, Oskar Bökelmann, Emil Buschow, Oskar Buschow, Leon Seidel, Karl Alexander Seidel, Maximilian Beck, August Carter Sinopsis La guerra no acaba cuando se firma la paz. Cuando Alemania se rindió en 1945, en la costa occidental danesa comenzó otra dura batalla: la de los jóvenes soldados alemanes que fueron obligados a retirar miles de minas plantadas en la arena por el ejército nazi. Zandvliet muestra el maltrato infligido a esos prisioneros, un oscuro episodio de posguerra poco conocido.

Edición 166 de La Gran Evasión, 16/1/2018. Una playa danesa sembrada de minas alemanas, unos chicos desempeñando un trabajo inhumano, en 2015, Martin Zandvliet daba luz a este oscuro episodio de la segunda guerra mundial, desenterrando la vergüenza de su patria, el horror de la guerra, la crueldad, la muerte, el perdón, si, incluso la piedad habita en la arena blanca que oculta la muerte en sus entrañas. Una fila infinita de prisioneros alemanes por una carretera danesa, el sargento Carl Leopold Rasmussen los observa desde su jeep, un destello rojo y blanco lo hace reaccionar, es una bandera de su patria, Dinamarca, que un soldado alemán oculta entre sus sucias manos, apretada contra su sucio uniforme. El sargento se la arrebata a gritos, lo golpea sin piedad, una y otra vez, el chico sangra conmocionado, la nariz destrozada..."fuera de mi país, esa bandera no es vuestra". El sargento es un tipo duro, un paracaidista veterano, ha visto el horror, el odio y la rabia lo devoran, malditos seáis, malditos....estamos en 1945, Alemania se ha rendido, la guerra ha terminado. Unos soldados alemanes reciben instrucciones de un capitán danés, apenas son unos niños, adolescentes, caras sucias, almas sucias, flacos como palos, lágrimas perpetuas en esos ojos que ya no parecen humanos, deben limpiar de minas alemanas, las que su ejército colocó, la costa danesa, su instrucción es brutal, es dura, se lo merecen por lo que han hecho, recibes lo que siembras…impiedad. Algunos morirán mientras aprenden a desactivar sus propias minas, la mayoría lo hará cuando lleguen a la playa y comiencen el trabajo, si sobrevives, volverás a casa, hambrientos y apaleados, unos niños, unos soldados, mis lagrimas también se agolpan en los ojos. La civilización occidental se fue por las chimeneas de Dachau….los restos que aún quedaban, los barrió el viento en una playa danesa. Un niño llama a su madre cuando tiene miedo, cuando una mina le ha arrancado los brazos y se retuerce en la arena, dos hermanos gemelos juegan con un escarabajo, unos jóvenes soñando con un trabajo cuando regresen a casa, cuando la guerra termine para ellos, Erns, Werner, Sebastian.....limpian la playa, centímetro a centímetro, arrástrate por la arena, con cuidado, utiliza la sonda, recuerda el entrenamiento, pronto volverás a casa, lo ha prometido el sargento. Martin Zandvliet retrata con exquisita elegancia, con maestría, éste episodio negro de nuestra historia, con distancia e intimísimo, la brutalidad del sargento Rasmussen, el rumor en la memoria colectiva de lo que los alemanes hicieron, los bellísimos parajes daneses, unos planos excepcionales de un lirismo asolador, los rostros de los chicos-soldados, la explosión insospechada de una mina en cualquier momento, los cuerpos destrozados, las almas desangradas, demasiado emoción… un silencio sepulcral, turbado, horrorizado, viendo como un tipo duro consuela a un chico que quiere salir a buscar a su hermano, ni otra ampolla de morfina puede apagar el amor, un sargento danés y un soldado alemán, un padre y un niño cualquiera. Una sensible historia llena de emoción y expiación, subyugada por la hermosa banda sonora de Sune Martin y la fabulosa fotografía de Camilla Hjelm, ambos compatriotas de Zandvliet, que muestran lo áspera y seca que es la vida en esa playa, a la vez que capta toda la belleza del paisaje, esa arena blanca, la crueldad y la sangre de los hombres, mezclada con la majestuosidad de este viejo mundo. Esta fría noche de enero nos arrastramos por la playa buscando minas de emoción y humanidad, con cuidado, suavemente, utilizando la sonda…José Miguel Moreno, Raúl Gallego, Gervi Navío y nuestro curtido critico, apretando y cerrando la mano que duele a reventar de cine, César Bardés. Me zumban los oídos, me sangra el corazón. Gervasio Navío Flores.

Danish/German co-production Land of Mine is a film about a group of German POWs who - once the Nazi occupation of Denmark ended - were made to clear mines on the coastal beaches Mosquitoes, starring Olivia Coman and Olivia Williams, is the latest play by Lucy Kirkwood at The Dorfman at London's National's Theatre. It interweaves family relations, particle physics and sexting Bernard MacLaverty's first novel for a decade and a half is Midwinter Break - a long-married couple escape to Amsterdam. Can it match the success of Grace Notes? Matisse In The Studio is a new exhibition at at Lonodn's Royal Academy 'does what it says on the can' - it's a look at his work and the items which inspired it; from a flower vase or a chocolate pot to an African mask or weaving Trust Me is a new BBC drama starring Jodie Whittaker (the next Dr Who) about a nurse who loses her job and decides to keep working by impersonating a doctor Tom Sutcliffe's guests are David Aaronovitch, Helen Lewis and Deborah Bull. The producer is Oliver Jones.

The boys are back in time to look at animated effort The Emoji Movie, sci-fi adventure Valerian And The City Of A Thousand Planets, F1 documentary Williams, biopic Maudie, post-war drama Land Of Mine, and indie Brit flick The Ghoul. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

*Note to listeners: this review contains gun shot sound effects* This year, the Scandinavian Film Festival is leading with what might sound like just another World War 2 movie, but is one that actually turns the tables the tables on a lot of its predecessors. The Danish film Under Sandet (literally Under the Sand), is a drama set in post-war landmine-ridden Denmark and is being released internationally with the English title Land of Mine, a rather unfortunate, hopefully accidental pun on an obviously serious issue. It's easy to see why the second world war is still a cinematic staple. The Third Reich, and its soldiers, remain the definitive example of what hateful extremism can lead to, and what we all want to avoid becoming. No film has ever had to work especially hard to characterise Nazi soldiers as villains. It is curious, then, that in Land of Mine, these supposedly evil men appear in the form of scared, defeated young boys who just want to go home. Of course, as prisoners of war from the losing side, some are wondering if they'll even have much of a home to go to once they've been released. The ones that handled the landmines are being made to remove all 2.5 million of them from the beaches that they buried them on. Danish Sergeant Carl Rasmussen (Rolan Møller) is given a group of 14 German soldiers that are to dig up and defuse thousands of unexploded mines before they are allowed to go home. In a damaged country that has just been freed from German occupation, its German prisoners have become the lowest class of people. Sergeant Rasmussen and his fellow officers beat them, starve them, mock them, and deny them any medical attention, until it is too late. The boys all find various ways to deal with their plight. Ludwig Haffke (Oskar Bökelmann), their leader, appointed while the war was still being fought, has resigned himself to the totality of their defeat and ultimate ruin. Most of the others are more hopeful, and spend their time talking about what they'll do when they get home and the lives that they will lead. Twin brothers Ernst and Werner Lessner (Emil and Oskar Buschow), seeing a country in need of rebuilding, plan to start up a bricklaying business, called Ernst, Wernst & Sons (even though the sons haven't been born yet). As tends to happen with twins, especially identical ones, their connection is strong. Ernst also shares a sort of big-brotherly bond with the little girl from the family farm that is next to the hut in which the boys are locked up every night. For Nazis, they seem to have an incredible capacity to love. The real, unspoken leader of the group is now Sebastian Schumann (Louis Hoffman), a boy with a quiet maturity that is well beyond his years. He deals with the danger by taking control and becoming the protector. The sergeant manages to do this dirty work by reminding himself of what these boys were party to and detaching himself emotionally from them, until they have their first casualty, and he sees just how much of himself there is in Sebastian. As for the other characters in the Danish military, writer/director Martin Zandvliet doesn't quite afford them the same complexity and dynamism. Rasmussen's superiors, namely Lieutenant Ebbe Jensen (Mikkel Boe Følsgaard), are painted as the cold, ivory tower authorities in this narrative, while the Sergeant has a very different point of view from working on the ground. However, Zandvliet is not about to deny that Ebbe has a point when he tells Carl "You have no idea what they have on their conscience." Of course, the audience of Land of Mine has much more than merely an idea of what these 14 boys might have done. They can also see as well as anyone that the Danish officers have their own people to protect and a country to rebuild. With not even enough food to feed the people of Denmark, why give any to the Germans? Someone has to clear the mines, so why not the people who put them there? Why risk the lives of people who had no involvement whatsoever with the atrocities committed by the Nazi party in cleaning up their mess? Still, in cinema, murky misdeeds done offscreen seldom match the raw victimisation that takes place onscreen. The prior actions of these boys is left to the imagination, one that is more fuelled by their heartbreaking pleas for mercy than anything else. One has to wonder how much choice some members of the Hitler Youth generation really had in the part they were playing in all of this. By allowing us to spend time with this small company out of an enormous group of prisoners, Zandvliet makes it very hard for anyone to see a way that placing children in harm's way, even Nazi children, can truly be the answer to anything.

Scandinavische films zijn misschien niet de meest swingende ter wereld, maar de pareltjes uit vooral Denemarken en Zweden worden vaak geprezen om hun realisme en humaniteit.
