Film at Eleven

The world première for horror/war hybrid Blitzkrieg: Escape From Stalag 69 will happen at New York’s Pioneer Theatre in Saturday May 24th 2008 at 10pm

From Keith Crocker, director of 1997’s The Bloody Ape, comes a brand-new Nazi exploitation flick for 2008! For nearly 30 years no one has dared tackle the genre, leaving us rerunning Ilsa: She Wolf of the SS in our DVD players. Now, in period costume and refashioning New York, Long Island locales, Crocker has fathomed a return to the glorious ’70s when the Nazi genre was more grindhouse fodder rather than a political nod. Wild Eye Releasing is handling the limited theatrical release and eventually DVD duties.

The cast and crew will be present for a Q&A following the film, which will also enjoy a week long run at the Pioneer in the late summer, as well as dates across the country. Click here to purchase tickets in advance.
