The eighties. While on a black ops mission in Latin America, two GIs broke ranks to pursue a lucrative score. The plan went sideways, and they went their separate ways. But the wounds of war never truly heal; these old buddies will meet again, this time in the concrete jungle. And this time, one of them will be motivated not by greed, but by something else... -- ABSOLUTE DESTRUCTION UNLEASHED IN JANUARY 2026 -- TRIGGER WARNING: This project includes depictions of intense violence and psychological distress.

REVIEWS:

Dark, gritty, and completely unhinged. The monologue about the gods and sacrifices was chilling. As an action-horror, it works incredibly well. Sometimes the AI visuals were a bit distracting and morph-y during the fast-paced scenes, but the overall vibe is deeply unsettling in a good way,

Dmitry Kovac

It's a heavy, aggressive film that isn't for everyone.

Lina Moreau

A brutal revenge story. The tension between the old GIs is palpable. The AI style makes the jungle and the concrete city feel equally hostile.

Maia Chkonia

An absolutely mind-bending experience. The use of AI generation gives everything this surreal, unstable quality that perfectly matches the protagonist's psychological distress. It felt like a fever dream of an 80s action movie. The violence is extreme, but it serves the chaotic narrative.
