The Dogs of War
Cry 'Havoc!' and let slip...
Directed by John Irvin
Produced by Juniper Films, United Artists
A gritty, morally murky thriller about mercenaries caught in the machinery of corporate-backed coups, driven by combat and cynicism rather than heroism.
Mercenary soldiers Jamie and Drew are hired by a large corporation to liberate Zangaro, a small African nation, from an despot. Havoc ensues.
