A Nazi hunter in Paraguay discovers a sinister and bizarre plot to rekindle the Third Reich.
Barry Kohler, a young Nazi hunter, tracks down a group of former SS officers meeting in Paraguay in the late 1970s. The Nazis, led by Dr Mengele, are planning something. Old Nazi hunter, Ezra Lieberman, is at first uninterested in Kohler’s findings. But when he is told something of their plan, he is eager to find out more. Lieberman visits several homes in Europe and the U.S. in order to uncover the Nazi plot. It is at one of these houses he notices something strange, which turns out to be a horrible discovery. He discovers that all of them have an adopted son who all resemble each other.
“With two excellent antagonists in Gregory Peck and Laurence Olivier, ‘The Boys from Brazil’ presents a gripping, suspenseful drama for nearly all of its two hours.” – Variety
“For much of its slowburn build there is a classy, intelligent thriller at work, something closer in tone to ‘The Odessa File’.” – Empire
“’The Boys From Brazil’ becomes the first ever science-fictional depiction of cloning where the cloning is scientifically realistic ie. where the story takes into account that the clone would grow at a normal rate and would need to replicate the social conditions in order to approximate the donor’s personality.” – Moria Review
