Benson
영화는 해안에 편지가 떠밀려 오고 누군가가 그 편지를 읽는 것으로 시작을 하게 됩니다. 병속에 든 편지는 주로 어딘가에 표류가 되어 자신의 생사를 알릴때 쓰는 것으로 주로 사용이 되는데요. 편지의 내용은 보웬 테일러가 일종의 모험담을 적은 이야기 입니다. 스포일러 있습니다. 때는 1차 세계대전 당시로 전함은 물론 적대국의 상선도 가리지 않고 공격을 하면서 악명을 떨쳤던 유보트가 그날도 영국 상선을 공격하여 침몰 시키게 됩니다. 리사와 겨우 살아남은 주인공 테일러는 영국 선원들에 의해 구출이 되나 그들도 표류를 하는 것 외에는 특별히 할수 없다는 것을 알게 됩니다. 한편 민간인을 공격한 것에 대한 일말의 죄책감을 가지고 있는 유보트의 선장은 선내에 공기를 채우기 위해 부상을 명령 하게 됩니다. 테일러와 살아남은 영국 선원들은 잠수함이 올라오는 것을 느끼고 유보트 탈취 계획을 세우게 됩니다. 우여곡절 끝에 유보트를 탈취한 테일러 일행은 유보트 선장에게 동맹국으로 향하라는 명령을 내리게 됩니다. 그리고 영국 전함을 만나 교신을 시도 하지만 적군으로 오해한 영국 전함의 공격만 받게 되는데요. 아군의 공격에서 겨우 피신한 유보트는 항해를 계속 하다 미지의 섬을 발견 하게 됩니다. 그중간에 유보트 군인들에게 제압을 당했다가 다시 유보트를 접수 하게 되고 모두 살기 위해서는 공조를 약속하게 됩니다. 아무튼 연료도 음식도 고갈이 되면서 앞뒤 가릴 것이 없게 된 일행은 얼음으로 뒤덮혀 있는 섬에서 따뜻한 담수가 흘려나오는 것을 발견 하게 되고 섬 내부로 잠수해 들어가는 모험을 시도 하게 됩니다. 아슬 아슬하게 협곡을 통과한 유보트 앞에서 과거, 현재가 뒤섞여 있는 미지의 세계가 펼쳐지게 됩니다
무덤 넘어로
Burglar
년작 공포 영화로 4개의 짧은 이야기들이 엮여 있는 앤솔로지 형태의 영화입니다. 이런 이야기들은 짧은 이야기들을 연결하거나 감싸는 이야기로 앞뒤를 장식하고 있기 마련일 겁니다. 이 영화에서는 다름 아닌 이 시절 영국산 공포 영화의 단골 출연 배우인 피터 쿠싱이 골동품 가게 주인으로 나와서, 그 골동품 가게에서 물건을 사간 사람들에게 벌어지는 사연들을 보여 주는 형태로 되어 있습니다.
Doctor Who: The Green Death
Hinks
The Doctor and UNIT investigate a deadly infection lurking underneath the Welsh mining town of Llanfairfach. It's an adventure that will change Jo Grant's life forever...
The Sex Victims
Jack Piper
A lone truck driver who is lured into the woods by a nubile Lady Godiva discovers after he’s slept with her that all is not as it seems. The Sex Victims (1973) is very much part of the Britsploitation fold, featuring gratuitous nudity, working-class vernacular and rough sex. Yet director Derek Robbins also veers into some of the same uncanny territory directors like José Larraz would later explore at feature length, making it a unique hybrid. In fact, The Sex Victims would make a perfect bill cousin for Larraz’s Vampyres (1974) for the way in which it combines ample nudity with supernatural elements. (BFI)
Hide and Seek
Sid

Zeppelin
Jamie Fergusson
The outbreak of World War I places Scots officer Geoffrey Richter-Douglas in an uncomfortable position. Although his allegiance is to Britain, his mother was from an aristocratic Bavarian family, and he spent his summers in Germany as a child. When Geoffrey is approached by a German spy who offers him a chance to defect, he reports the incident to his superiors, but instead of arresting the spy they suggest that he accept her offer--and become an Allied agent. In Germany, among old friends, Geoffrey discovers that loyalty is more complicated than he expected, especially when he finds himself aboard the maiden voyage of a powerful new prototype Zeppelin, headed for Scotland on a secret mission that could decide the outcome of the war.
Oh! What a Lovely War
Pte Garbett
Satire about the First World War based on a stage musical of the same name, portraying the "Game of War" and focusing mainly on the members of one family (last name Smith) who go off to war. Much of the action in the movie revolves around the words of the marching songs of the soldiers, and many scenes portray some of the more famous (and infamous) incidents of the war, including the assassination of Duke Ferdinand, the Christmas meeting between British and German soldiers in no-mans-land, and the wiping out by their own side of a force of Irish soldiers newly arrived at the front, after successfully capturing a ridge that had been contested for some time.
경기병대의 돌격
Trumpeter Pridmore
A chronicle of events that led to the British involvement in the Crimean War against Russia and which led to the siege of Sevastopol and the fierce Battle of Balaclava on October 25, 1854 which climaxed with the heroic, but near-disastrous calvary charge made by the British Light Brigade against a Russian artillery battery in a small valley which resulted in the near-destruction of the brigade due to error of judgement and rash planning on part by the inept British commanders.
