Deadly Nam is a German low-budget war film directed by Markus Hagen from 2006.

action

At the height of the Vietnam War , a group of young American soldiers are dropped off by helicopter in the jungle. They should scout out a way on which the fighting troops can be supplied with supplies. As the GIs advance deeper and deeper into enemy territory, one by one falls victim to the Viet Cong and the anti-personnel mines that lurk everywhere for them.

Reviews

  • The daily newspaper : Genre clichés are not only dragged through the cocoa, but drowned in it (...) A firework of blood and nonsense!
  • Badmovies.de : The film plays with the traditional genre clichés and takes them one step further. Seldom has the indigestible flag-waving hurray hero pathos spread so much good mood.

background

The shooting took place near Bremen , which is why the makers (Hendrik Thiele & Markus Hagen) advertised Deadly Nam as the first North German Vietnam film . The project quickly gained national recognition through the Internet and reports in various newspapers.

The films parodied in Deadly Nam include works such as Apocalypse Now and Platoon , but also the films by Michael Dudikoff and Chuck Norris .
