For some reason or another, Nazis keep popping up in horror films as much as the world wants them stay put and rot in Hell forever. Well, if you’ve ever been impassioned enough by their crimes against humanity to wonder what their lives are like after death, then following Reichsfuhrer SS may interest you. In a collaboration between DapperCat Pictures, Martini Pictures, and Potent Media, fans of horror flicks and suspense-dramas will be treated to the story of Heinrich Himmler, Hitler’s right hand man, as he enters his first days in Hell.
“The Reichsfuhrer-SS Heinrich Himmler was Adolf Hitler’s most loyal henchman and one of the most feared men of WWII. Surprisingly, he had only one problem… He had no stomach for murder! When the Reichsfuhrer-SS becomes physically ill during the execution of Russian POW’s on the Eastern front in 1941. Ruthless, careerist SS General Hans Shellenberg rats Himmler out to the Fuhrer, Adolf Hitler.
Hitler tests his loyal Heinrich forcing him to commit the murder of a Polish prisoner named Danuta with his own hands. Thus awakening the Monster within him that will horrify the world for generations to come! Himmler may please his Fuhrer in 1941, but what awaits him after he commits suicide in 1945 is nothing less than Hell itself. See what happens when Himmler meets Erebus, the gatekeeper of Hell! See the nightmarish suffering that awaits the infamous Nazi leader who murdered millions!”
Reichsfuhrer SS is written and directed by David B. Stewart III, who is also starring in and co-producing the feature film with John Martineau. Martineau will appear in the film as well alongside many indie horror favorites including Carmela Hayslett (Death Follows), Angelina Leigh (Born to Die), Chuck Maher (“Roxsy Tyler’s Carnival of Horrors”), Martin Slamon (“Yes, Hello!”), Tina Krause (Nikos the Impaler), Tammy Jean (Apocalypse Kiss), Joseph Barford (Batman Revealed), Anthony Cerrano (“Yes, Hello!”, Kelly Weston (Penguin: Bird of Prey), and Joe Ronca (By the Dashboard Light). Potent Media’s commander and chief Christian Jude Grillo composed original scorings for the feature, directed the dark, otherworldly Hell scenes, and edited the entire story together into the final product.
Reichsfuhrer SS has completed its post-production phase and is expected to begin talks of distribution in the coming weeks. In the mean time, make sure to follow it on Facebook, and take a look at the brand new stills below.
