Once
again, mercenary Leu is ordered by his Captain to form a team to invade
the jungles of Thailand and eliminate a drug cartel including its criminal
boss 'Bad Dog.' Of course, Leu is opposed to the mission ["I'm no
longer in the military!" he claims] and is reluctant to lead a squad,
especially after the bloody annihilation of his previous one [in CANNIBAL
MERCENARY], but the money is attractive. Every team member has
a reason to join the squad (from needing 300 000 baht for mother's surgery
to getting a full mental health pardon). Since this is an unofficial mission,
the unit can operate above the law to achieve its goal. But that also
means they have no federal protection should they be compromised. Along
the way, they are attacked by various enemies including hungry cannibals,
responsible for Leu losing half his unit. He also offers protection to
a group of strange migrants and falls victim to a virtual LSD trip.
This
is virtually an unknown film, a sequel to an already buried actioner from
the mid '80s that also starred Bin Banleurit. Like the original CANNIBAL
MERCENARY, it's disjointed and unruly. It is expansive while being
oddly claustrophobic. However, despite the eccentricities [or maybe because
of them] this sequel is mandatory cinema for cult movie fans.
