It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

an ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

It is quite some time since I have seen a movie that is so inept as this one. The Story. The cheesy story. The Nazis are experimenting with the occult to make zombie soldiers. Obviously the director had never seen the far superior shock waves. Will they succeed? In the event it is more who cares and why is this movie so bad that you will be thinking. Effects.Dreadful throughout. Some of the worst cgi I have seen in years.The movie starts in a forest. 50 minutes later they are still in the forest. So the movie never really starts. Overall, totally pathetic attempt to make a movie. Do yourself a favour do not even watch this on pirate. I bought this for a £1 but I know this trash is going to end up in someone's Christmas stocking.

I bought this straight-to-video release at Walmart with extremely low expectations. Everywhere on line rookie writer & director Eli Dorsey's abysmal World War II thriller goes under the title "Devils of War." "Devils of War" sounds better than the generic title "101st: A-Company." Actually, this movie combines elements of warfare and devil worship. This utterly preposterous 75-minute combat epic is so hideously awful that it is hilarious. The action occurs in Nazi occupied Poland in 1944. President Roosevelt assembles three elite American soldiers and inserts them behind enemy lines to storm a castle and extract an undercover agent. As it turns out, the maniacal Nazis are conducting Satanic experiments using the blood of virgins to conjure up an army of indestructible demons. William Baldy,a.k.a. The Chaplin (Jerry L. Buxbaum), Adam Wald (Lawrence Anthony) and Herman 'Black Hercules' Jackson (first-time actor Jamin Watson)are flown in but their aircraft is shot down. They run afoul of German patrols and engage in one firefight after another until they rendezvous with their buxom agent, Claudia Klum (Carly Kingston), whose claim to fame is her big boobs, hides the camera between. When she squeezes her breasts together, the camera takes pictures. The actor who plays FDR looks nothing like Roosevelt, while most of the actors and actresses have a difficult time making you believe that they are the genuine articles. There is a quasi-"Where Eagles Dare" vibe going on in this crisp opus. The production values are far from opulent, but the film works until the occult elements are shown. Meanwhile, the firefights in the forest look tolerable, and some of the back projection is okay.

You know when you start to watch a film and you wonder 'Will this be so bad that its good?' the answer to that is NO it is just BAD. The premise of the film could have worked as it is common knowledge that the Nazi party were interested in the occult. The problem is that there is so much wrong with this film,they send in a 'special' group of soldiers dressed in German uniforms so they do not stand out but then have one of the men black,oh yes the German army was well known for the amount of black troops they had and they even mention how stupid it is in the film. I am sorry but this really did seem like it was written by a 14 year old boy (hence the 2 women with large breasts) the special effects were a joke half the time (the back projection during the spy on the motorbike and the toy plane). The only thing that this film has going for it is that you can watch it to spot all the mistakes and add them on IMDb.

You'll want to stay clear of this movie. I'll sum up other weak points: 1. the so-called action scenes. You see a lot of soldiers moving and shooting, and for some strange reason they miss a lot. And I mean a lot, regardless of the weapons provided to them. 2. the main characters are thoroughly stereotyped, though I admit the actors give it their best with the crappy script they are given. By this I mean only the 3 main actors. Whatever is in the German camp needs to get a reality check. 3. the devil touch. Sure, the Nazis were into the occult, but even after stretching my imagination, I can't for the life of me understand why these devils are so lame, and why it takes some long-haired dude with crappy Latin to evoke them. 4. pray that you don't speak German. The accent is thick and the dialogues are short and/or meaningless. I've seen this before, where it seems that these actors get paid by the number of words they're allowed to utter. Same goes for the Polish girl in the movie. 5. not that it would save anything, but they could have had the decency to choose some better looking women and not make-up artists. That works in more than one movie in this genre, at least to some extent.Look, I fastforwarded through the action scenes, and then I felt sorry for listening to the dialogue scenes. I watch movies all the time, high budget to no budget, but this one really was too difficult for me. A 2 out of 10 please, or a 3 for trying.
