Ep 201 Tales from the Great War

We turn our attention to a cracking little historical horror from Actor, Director, Writer (and all round top bloke) Andrew Elias. “Tales From The Great War” begins with 4 British soldiers stationed in the trenches of the Western Front being “volunteered” for a mission behind German lines, where, it soon transpires, things more terrible than the enemy are stalking the blasted landscape. The narrative shifts in time at various points to give us the separate back stories of how these individuals ended up in the wrong place at the wrong time; before tying all of them together. This episode is in two stages, at first we attempt to give a flavour of what to expect and then we’ll warn you as we move into spoiler territory. Be under no doubt, we all highly recommend you seek this film out (it is currently available for rent on Amazon) - it’s small budget belies its quality and polish, with a strong script and an excellent cast (including some familiar faces) this is a real gem, that manages to pack more into its 60 minute run time than some movies manage in 3 hours. Watch (or re-watch) to avoid spoilers and join us.
