“A reminder that this is still the same guy who made SCRAPBOOK— the picture may be prettier, but he still knows how to hit you in the gut.  RATLINE is another example of independent American horror film at its best.”

‎”One seriously crazy, fearless ride.”

- Gruesome Hertzogg Horror Review Podcast

.

‎”An intelligent, fact-filled, historically accurate story full of all the violence and gore we’re looking for in a horror film.  Leave it to Stanze; only he could pull off such a plot and make it all work.“
- AnythingHorror.com

.

“Carefully weaves historical fact with horror fiction and tops it with a dose of hard boiled crime drama.  Exceptionally well staged and executed.”
- KillingBoxx.com

.

‎“…one of Eric Stanze’s best films.  The storytelling is great, the filmmaking technique is top of the line… Do yourself a favor and check this out.”
- Unrated Magazine, United Kingdom

.

“Strong direction, sharp performances from the whole cast… shot beautifully… the story is compelling, and there’s plenty of action. A movie that needs to be on your radar.”
- Daily Grindhouse

.

“‎In the middle of this rough and tumble horror film there is this amazingly touching, very soft-hearted love story… Stanze is still bending genre conventions at will, and here he does it in a roller-coaster fashion…” 
- Exploitation Nation

Synopsis:

Before the fall of Nazi Germany, the most sacred relic of the Nazi party, the Blood Flag, went missing.  This cherished object possessed supernatural powers, infused by the occult experimentation of the SS Paranormal Division.  The flag’s current condition and whereabouts are unknown.  Today, the search for the missing Blood Flag is on, and one man – with diabolical intentions – is getting closer to its hiding place.  The flag is about to be unearthed – with nightmarish, blood-soaked consequences.
