Ghosts of War (18)
Directed by Eric Bress
★★★★

SIXTEEN years after The Butterfly Effect, film-maker Eric Bress returns with a seemingly conventional ghost film but which has a deliciously unsettling and surprising twist.

Set in WWII, it follows five battle-hardened US soldiers — played by Brenton Thwaites, Theo Rossi, Kyle Gallner, Skylar Astin and Alan Ritchson — who are assigned to defend and hold a French chateau against the Nazis.


Masters of Love (15)
