Netflix has just added Overlord, the acclaimed 2018 action war thriller movie, to its service.
"As the soldiers approach their target, they soon begin to realise that there's more going on in the Nazi-occupied village than a simple military operation," the plot synopsis adds.
"Making their way to an underground lab, the outnumbered men stumble upon a sinister experiment that forces them into a vicious battle..."
Overlord's screenplay was penned by Billy Ray (Breach) and Mark L. Smith (The Revenant).
Holding an 82% Rotten Tomatoes score, the film earned particular praise upon release for its mix of genres, its intense set-pieces, and its pulpy story.
Directed by Julius Avery (The Pope's Exorcist) and produced by J.J. Abrams (Cloverfield), the film is set towards the end of World War II. Its story follows a group of American paratroopers who drop behind enemy lines to penetrate the walls of a fortified church and destroy a radio transmitter.
The movie's ensemble cast also includes Bokeem Woodbine (Fargo), Iain De Caestecker (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.), Jacob Anderson (Interview with the Vampire), John Magaro (The Agency), Jovan Adepo (The Odyssey), Mathilde Ollivier (1899), Meg Foster (They Live), Pilou Asbæk (Game of Thrones), and Wyatt Russell (Disclosure Day).
