Overlord

In the waning days of the Second World War, Allied forces are poised for the massive D‑Day invasion, and a small unit of American paratroopers is dropped deep behind enemy lines to secure a seemingly quiet French village. What begins as a routine operation quickly turns eerie when the soldiers sense something far darker than conventional combat lurking in the shadows—rumors of Nazi experiments that meld technology with the supernatural, threatening to unleash a force beyond any battlefield.

At the heart of the team is Sergeant Eldson, a seasoned leader whose steady presence holds the squad together amid the chaos of war. Beside him, Private Ed Boyce brings a blend of quiet determination and empathy, often acting as the bridge between the hardened soldiers and the civilians they encounter. Corporal Ford adds a gruff, pragmatic edge, urging the men forward with a resolve hardened by countless engagements. Their dynamic is further complicated when they meet Chloe, a resilient French woman who offers a glimpse of the village’s hidden struggles and the ordinary lives caught in the crossfire. Together, these characters form a fragile alliance, each carrying their own motivations and doubts as they confront an enemy that is both human and unknowably other.

The film weaves the gritty realism of a war epic with the unsettling atmosphere of a supernatural thriller. Snow‑capped forests and ruined hamlets become a haunting backdrop where the clatter of gunfire is punctuated by whispers of unnatural power. Tension hangs in the air like static, urging the troops to question not only the enemy’s tactics but the very nature of the horror they face. As the line between combat and nightmare blurs, the story invites viewers to wonder how far the soldiers will go to stop a force that could alter the course of the war—and perhaps the world itself.
