HELL RAIDERS 1968 (SHOUT FACTORY/TIMELESS)

Larry Buchanan war film.

I have read a lot of bad things about this film, but it's not as bad as everyone says. John Agar and Richard Webb are two soldiers who are part of an elite group of demolition experts who are assigned to blow up a building that contains secret papers that the Nazi's want.

Joan Huntington is Agar's lover and he tries to get her out of Nazi occupied territory but does not have much success. This is the only Larry Buchanan film that was part of a seven package deal that was not a horror film. It doesn't have action, but I did enjoy it as I do all Buchanan films.

I am probably the only one who is glad to see this released on DVD and it is part of a four film package called "Movies 4 You: Timeless Military Film Collection". Also included with this film are "Lost Battalion", "Go For Broke" and "Tank Battalion". Again, I liked the film and I stand by it.
