Set in the last days of WWII, BURIAL tells the fictional story of a small band of Russian soldiers, led by intelligence officer Brana Vasilyeva, tasked with trafficking the remains of Hitler back to Stalin in Russia.  En route, the unit is attacked by German ‘Werwolf’ partisans and picked off one-by-one. Brana leads her surviving comrades in a last stand to ensure their ‘cargo’ doesn’t fall into the hands of those who would see it buried, in order to hide the truth forever.

Reviews
  • Theplaylist.net: Clean narrative lines, top-notch production design, great acting, and Hollywood-grade cinematography and lighting elevate Burial above what might have been a forgettable schlock-fest.
  • Latimes.com: It's brutal and exceedingly bloody, as one would expect from this kind of lean genre picture. But Burial also is packed with meaty philosophical questions about gods, monsters, and men at war, and it’s exceedingly well-executed.
  • Filmthreat.com: Contains scenes of raw power, intermittently grasping greatness. The production values are excellent, and it’s visually striking.
  • Nycmovieguru.com: A gripping, thrilling and unflinchingly gritty psychological horror film.
  • Theguardian.com: Intriguing alt-history about a struggle to capture the dictator's corpse.
