646f9e108c During World War 2 a group of brave US Airmen are downed in Nazi controlled Europe, after their aircraft is attacked by Nazi-controlled mythological Gargoyles. One of Himmler&#39;s grim Nazi relic hunting teams managed to unleash, but not control, a demonic force in castle mountain caves in occupied continental Europe. It breathes life into gargoyles, which terrorize not only the area but also passing allied bombers. Operating from Kent, first an RAF squad and then a USAF squad sent to rescue them suffer heavy losses. Crash survivors combine, advised by local resistance and legend, in a desperate fight against the hell-breed, with rebellious ace pilot Will in the ultimate star part. What a true piece of garbage at every level. The uniforms were all messed up. Fabric billed garrison caps were used in the British Army not in the USAAC. All the trainees or gunners or what ever they were, wore infantry officer devices on their lapels not enlisted Air Corps insignia. The uniforms had epaulets that did not extend under the collar. An RAF officer was wearing the US Air Force Commendation Medal that was not yet even issued. An Army Air Corps colonel was wearing the Navy Cross. All the wings were gold not silver. I could not recognize what they werecloseI could tell they were similar to US Navy Crew wings. In addition the movie totally sucked. What a waste of money to produce this piece of junk. Some hot shot WWII pilots are flying around, rattling off some old 40&#39;s movie dialog. Suddenly, some flying creatures with sticky feet attach themselves to the planes&#39; wings. Then they destroy the planes and go away for a while. Then they come back and do it again. Nazis have unleashed a bunch of gargoyles, in some cult legend practice nobody ever heard of before. They want to use the monsters to conquer the world but the things just croak them too. Oh, and meanwhile, Allied and Nazi forces have battles.<br/><br/>This film tosses around bits and pieces of war and horror genre stuff, and loosely fits it all together. Some attempt is made to tell a creative story; there is an evil-encounters-evil motif about the modern Nazis and their ancient cultist counterparts. Acting is strong enough, but character development is minimal. Lots of violent action, but little explanation of why the gargoyles are so anti-social. CGI looks to have been done by students in a &quot;Computer for Dummies&quot; class. The ending is unintentionally funny. Overall; about average for SyFy channel; good fast food fluff if you&#39;re in the mood for some cheap entertainment.
