Iron Sky is a 2012 Finnish/German/Australian science fiction comedy directed by Timo Vuorensola starring Julia Dietze, Christopher Kirby, Götz Otto, Udo Kier, and Peta Sergeant. The film is the first "real" film by Vuorensola, who had previously made Star Wreck: In the Pirkinning with a few friends. Ten percent of the film's funding was crowdsourced from fans, with the rest provided by traditional sources. It spawned a sequel, 2019's Iron Sky: The Coming Race


The following weapons were used in the film Iron Sky:

Special

A behind-the-scenes featurrette showed the filming of the scene above. Surprising, a real blank-firing P38 was used rather than CGI.
