Rescue Team

Richard Harrison stars as a super tough CIA agent in this over-the-top action-packed Filipino jungle action flick. Bloody violence, a jungle full of bamboo death traps and some double crossing keeps things more than interesting and a definite must for fans of Filipino exploitation action.

Directed by Jun Gallardo, Rescue Team leans on a strong ensemble — Richard Harrison, Romano Kristoff, Don Gordon Bell — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about action titles of 1983.
