This starts off quite well - a group of American squaddies are charged with occupying a chateau in France towards the end of WWII. Once ensconced, however, they start to hear things going bump in the night and soon discover that the Nazis had carried out the particularly brutal murders of the family who had lived there before, and that that family possibly hadn't quite left! Cuties Brenton Thwaites ("Chris") and Kyle Gallner ("Tapert") are decent enough as they lead their men in the hunt for the truth and at times it's a well constructed and paced (don't go looking for any meaningful dialogue) ghost story with some above-average special effects. Sadly, though, after about an hour it all goes seriously off piste and we start having science and Afghanistan (and Billy Zane) enter into the plot and we slide down a slippery slope to ridiculousness. Pity!
