Over deze film

Toward the end of the Korean War, an uneasy ceasefire is ordered, but out on the Eastern front line of the Aerok Hills, in an expanse of land called the Aero-K, fierce fighting continues. A race to capture a strategic point to determine a new border between the two Koreas is the ultimate prize. At the Eastern border stands the Alligator Company, known to be the best soldiers of the front line. They are the only unit to have survived the worst battle of the war at Pohang. When a South Korean bullet is found in the dead body of a company commander, Lieutenant of Defense Security Command Kang Eun-Pyo is ordered to investigate Alligator Company for the murder. Upon arrival, Kang Eun-Pyo is immediately shocked at the state of the soldiers, the conditions on the front, and the presence of Kim Soo-Hyuk, a former friend he believed to be dead. With a truce promised for years but no end in sight, one man struggles to make sense of a crime in the face of countless lives sacrificed for war.

Beoordelingen en reviews

I love indie films. Esp through the eyes from the Ingenious director . Hollywood has a bottomless pockets to paint a turd of a movie with 14 carat Jewish gold. I have always loved obscure foriegn films, and the theatres in Manhattan are decorated with shabby chic mouldings, creepy dark nooks and crannies that once were private booths. Out in San Diego there's not too many people that ever heard of this midnight/ cult films. Its disappointing. It was a right of passage for kids of the 1980s
