Blood and Steel

The only good thing is that I saw it in LBX, such a rare opportunity for such a rare film. They are mostly in pan f... scan. I have always been interested to watch B movies in LBX, such as Maury Dexter's films for Regal Pictures. This war film brings nothing to the genre, only the characters seem a bit interesting; there were batches of such fims, especially in the sixties and seventies, small budgets, filmed in Philippines, psychotronic war films as I call them. This is an early job from Bernie Kowalksi, the future director of KRAKATOA EAST OF JAVA and MACHO CALLAHAN. It is well done, good camera work but you have the feeling that the director lacked ambition. Try, just try it.
