Viewing Notes

Received the Inglorious Bastards 2: Hell Heroes DVD from Netflix mainly b/c it features 4 lesser war films I wanted to view. Sadly (and as expected) all the transfers are pretty awful but still watchable (barely). Wanting to see more Umberto Lenzi I opted for Bridge To Hell (1986) first. Unfortunately this is not a good film and, to be honest, the better bad scenes are stock footage from previous films. The story isn’t original (escaped POWs attempt to steal treasure from the German soldiers) and overall it’s a mishmash of bad editing and acting. Very forgettable. Le sigh.
