Die Wilden Kerle 5 (Subtitle: Behind the Horizon; Addition: DWK 5 ) is a German children's film from 2008 and is the fourth sequel to Die Wilden Kerle . The film was based on the children's book series Die Wilde Fußballkerle by Joachim Masannek , who also directed. As in the predecessor Die Wilden Kerle 4 , only individual people were taken from the plot of the children's book series, whose characters now differ significantly from the original book version.
action
After the wild guys had defeated the wolves and then the silver lights (in the previous part DWK4 - The attack of the silver lights ), they extensively celebrate their triumph in the forest. One evening at the lake, Leon and Vanessa, who have always been in love with each other, swear eternal loyalty; while they are being observed unnoticed by two somber-looking figures. The next day, Leon suddenly disappeared. Vanessa is angry, she no longer trusts Leon because he has let her down several times. However, Raban and Joschka are firmly convinced that Leon was kidnapped by vampires. Just recently, Raban's self-constructed warning belt (which Vanessa mockingly called “ghost buckle”) lit up in red, which means “vampire”. Although the others don't really want to believe Raban's and Joschka's theory, they set off on a search with their motorcycles. But there is no trace of Leon, and even after ten months there is still no sign of life from him.
Meanwhile, the wild guys reach a half-ruined fortress made of steel and concrete, which turns out to be the place beyond the horizon. A strange hooded figure tells them that Leon is there, but "dead as a stone". The guys search the fortress despite the hooded man's warning that they would fare just like Leon, and in the night finally meet the vampires who call themselves "shadow seekers". The wild guys want to know where Leon is from them, but Darkside, the leader of the vampires, challenges them to a 3-D soccer match (Soccer Six in 3 dimensions). The vampires win the match with two to zero, among other things because of the ability of vampires to “dash” (“beam” quickly from one place to another). As a result, the guys are trapped in the care of the vampires. Darkside seduces Vanessa and convinces her to forget Leon and become a vampire like him, which she also agrees to. The other wild guys alias Maxi, Nerv, Klette, Raban, Joschka and Markus are also seduced and Blossom bites Maxi, but only fleetingly, so that he is only partially transformed. The wild guys try to escape and they only manage to escape, with the exception of burdock, only barely with the help of the hooded man, who first brings the remaining guys to safety. He shows them Leon, who was bitten by Blossom and then petrified in sunlight, which is harmful to vampires. In his own dwelling near the fortress of the shadowseekers, the hooded man brings the wild guys into his secret weapon, a "rifle" that emits sunlight, with the intention of taking revenge on the vampires for Leon.
During the night, the hooded man and Maxi take turns on watch, but when Blossom arrives, he can be completely transformed. Now he is held as a traitor by the others and the hooded man, and the vampires take everyone prisoner. Vanessa and Klette, who after a long back and forth lets the two smallest vampires Jeckyl and Hyde, who are trying to honor them, bite them, have meanwhile been captured in the vampire fortress, but are able to escape and also find the petrified Leon. Vanessa discovers a letter in his hand that says that he can only be redeemed if she kisses him in the brilliant light of the rising sun.
Vanessa persuades Darkside to play a final soccer game in his stadium called "Hell's Gate", the prize is Leon, and the wild guys are set free. The wild guys are initially behind, but manage to win the game 3-2. However, Darkside fights again with unfair means: He uses the hooded man's secret weapon that shoots the sun's rays, whereupon Vanessa has to hide in order not to turn to stone. Maxi saves a shot on goal that Markus could not have saved due to a previous shot, just in front of the goal line, but lies in front of the goal in the sunlight of the secret weapon and is petrified. Vanessa first has to beg Leon for forgiveness for being seduced by Darkside. When he forgives her and she kisses him in the light of the now rising sun, he comes back to life and Vanessa is no longer a vampire. Blossom kisses Maxi, with whom she is now in love, whereupon he wakes up again and both of them are rid of their vampire existence. The other guys also kiss vampires and fall in love: Markus kisses Düsentrieb, Raban Terry, Joschka Marry and Nerv is forced to kiss Klette, which is rather disgusting. When everyone is outside, however, Nerv notices that Burdock had a metal collar and was therefore not a vampire at all. Darkside and the two young vampires Jeckyl and Hyde remain in the vampire den in their eternal darkness, the others enjoy their freedom in the sunlight.

criticism
The Lexicon of International Films describes the film as a "rather lovelessly crafted fantasy adventure". The film spreads boredom in spite of some scenes with great staging effort and is "completely unsuitable for smaller children" due to the scary scenes.
Awards
Jimi Blue Ochsenknecht won the New Faces Award in 2008 for best young actor.
