Earlier this week, we posted a pretty cool promotional pitch trailer for Frankenstein's Army, and today it was announced that director Richard Raaphorst has officially been offered a financing deal for the project, courtesy of MPI Media Group and XYZ Films. We have a synopsis of the film's plot below, along with a piece of concept art. To check out the promotional trailer, click on the link above.
"Using shocking vintage newsreel footage as his jumping-off point, Raaphorst has hit on a unique and bold premise. Toward the end of World War II, Russian soldiers pushing into eastern Germany stumble across a secret Nazi lab, one that has unearthed and begun experimenting with the journal of one Dr. Victor Frankenstein. The scientists have used the legendary’s Frankenstein’s work to assemble an army of supersoldiers stitched together from the body parts of their fallen comrades – a desperate Hitler’s last ghastly ploy to escape defeat."
