Outpost 11

One has to wonder if this is simply a British way of descending into madness, as it certainly is a strange movie. "Albert, you must re-hydrate the Omega Core. Oh no, not that!" Graham gets a phone call, and asks who is it and then says 'it can't be, spiders don't use phones." Mason hunts, shots at things and they explode. A frozen man is out in the snow, his head cleaved in half. Is it real, or the result of a psychotropic chemical? It is not a horror movie, but three men in an isolated cold and wilderness outpost, monitoring radio transmissions of the enemy, but really only hearing static. One could say they went bonkers. In many ways it is both boring and intriguing.

This film should NOT be watched by ANYONE, unless you want to completely waste 1 1/2 hours of your life. Put some fresh paint on the wall and watch that dry instead. It'll be more interesting, and at least the end result will be more fulfilling. Fair play to the actors, they did a good job with the script they were given, but just because some psychotropic drug - or whatever - was responsible for the characters going crazy, it doesn't mean that the storyline should make no sense. I was just very disappointed with this film and don't know why it was even made. Please! Will somebody buy me a load of paint. I need some excitement in my life.

This film comes with and interesting premise and a somewhat unfairly low rating.

An intriguing disappointment.

So what for? Well a it's stylish, claustrophobic steampunk romp filmed in pretty much 3 rooms, with occasional use of some great outdoor scenery. Alas it's disjointed and doesn't wrap it's self up at all, yet the spirit is there...

Outpost 11 is completely flawed by the final act that makes little sense. It's however far from total rubbish by proxy of it's ambition.

6/10 for weirdo effort

This is a nice little slab of weirdness. Not the best acting, although not bad either. Odd storyline. Fairly low budget. But there are some interesting ideas, and I love the aesthetics of it. A challenging mix of sci-fi, classic war film, horror and psychological drama. No, not great, but it kept my interest until the end and I was glad to have seen it.

Three British soldiers in one small cabin. One is the aloof officer commanding officer. One is the most annoying character trope in film. A very English God Save the King type Sargent. He bullies the 3rd character, a sheepish army private. Nothing happens then something does then you're not sure if anything did happen... skip it
