Crossbone Territory

Cashing in on the success of Vietnam war movies, this one is a real stinker. The casting is terrible (everyone sleepwalks through their roles), the dialogue is atrocious, the dubbing is ridiculous (why would you allow such an effeminate voice-over for your lead killer?) and once you see a POW get shot in the forehead all he does is blink and stare back at the camera...well, if you can make it past the first 20 minutes of this filth you are a better person than I. The only reason to give more than one star to this is that the director and producers actually have a few moments that prove they cared at least somewhat in making a decent movie on such a low budget, unfortunately no one ON camera gave two donkey balls about carrying out whatever minimal hope there was to make a decent war movie. I'll watch bad movies anytime of the week, except for this. Do not bother to seek it out unless you love 5th generation knock-offs of Platoon and any other vastly superior Vietnam War movie. And that's including every single one made by Chuck Norris as well.

Fillipino war flick with a captain who actually says "bone swar" when he's introduced to the tribesman! Not sure why he's talking French to clearly fillinos when it's Viet Nam that was over come by French, but OK roll with it. Although absurdly cheaply made, the movie is oddly watchable.

A sad Rambo-wannabe sergeant with an effeminate voice goes on a mission tho not exactly sure that's ever explained. Once into the hot Vietnamese jungle we get a super-high body count, gore, nasty jungle traps and idiotic dialog, i.e the usual stuff, but this movie is grittier, schlockier and more primitive than your usual Rambo knock-off.

Not my genre really these shoddy fillipino war flicks, but this one was odd enough to be entertaining as trash. A sad Rambo-wannabe sergeant with an effeminate voice goes on a mission that my brain failed to register, probably to blow some secret Vietcong stuff up or something. Once into the sweaty vietnamese jungle we get a super-high bodycount, gore, nasty jungle traps and idiotic dialogue, i.e the usual stuff, but this movie is grittier, schlockier and more primitive than your usual Rambo knock-off. Also worth mentioning is that this movie has some strong racist tendencies, against the vietnamese as expected (they are seen slaughtering live animals and dancing around in primitive voodoo-style) but also against jive-talking ("dubber-on-crack" jive) black solider, who was so much a racist stereotype you half expected him to show up eating watermelons and doing Chris Rock impressions. Since this film is pure trash that nobody can take seriously it only added to the fun for me. "Dedicated to The Duke and all the boys who served in 'Nam"!! :)
