In
the spirit of SAVING PRIVATE RYAN & THE THIN
RED LINE, the Troma Team proudly presents the epic war
drama BATTLE OF THE LAST PANZER.
In
one of WWII's most explosive battles, American forces dominate
a squadron of German Panzer tanks on the battlefields of
France. Assuming the area has been secured and all German
forces have either surrendered or been killed, the Americans
return to their base to celebrate the end of the war. Unbeknownst
to them, one tank and 5 soldiers were salvaged. With a broken
Panzer tank, depleted gas supply and little food, these
5 fatigued Germans attempt to make it back home rather than
surrender to the Americans.
Led
by the shell shocked Sergeant Ernst (Stan Cooper) the German
troop takes refuge in small French town that has been ravaged
by military occupation from both sides of the battlefield.
The local physician, mayor and his gorgeous wife (Erna Schurer)
are taken hostage to protect the Germans from the local
militia as as show them the way back home. Struggling to
lead his men to safety as well as keep his own sanity, Segeant
Ernst is plagued by battle flashback and a yearning desire
for the mayor's wife.
BATTLE
OF THE LAST PANZER is an intriguing look at war through
the eyes of the "enemy" and how for 5 soldiers
one war begins when another ends.
