The Shadow Hides Nazi Experiments and Torture at the TFW April 28th

Rock star turned director Frederico Zampaglione takes viewers to an isolated mountain range in Europe known as The Shadow this April 28th. The Texas Frightmare Weekend will host one of the first showings of what has been called "the return of italian horror" (Blogomatic). Horror review site Blogomatic3000 also calls Shadow "pulse pounding" and "amazing." The film follows a soldier back from Iraq only to be placed in another warzone that includes backwood hillbillies, Nazi experiments, torture and murder. Other reviews have commented on the visual appeal of the film and horror fans can get a eyefull with a trailer provided below. If you are in Texas do not miss this event in Dallas next Wednesday (9:00pm).

A synopsis for Shadow here:

In the woods he meets a pretty young stranger who tells him about a local myth concerning a nazi experiment camp. After a confrontation with hunters the couple take refuge in an abandoned bunker where the soldier is forced to endure a more shattering nightmare than the fears he experienced in Iraq" (Shadow).
