LOST BATTALION 1962 (SHOUT FACTORY/TIMELESS)

Philippine war film shot by Eddie Romero.

Kane Lynn produced and Romero directed this unconventional film about a beautiful young American woman who is captured by a band of outlaws on an island that if being evacuated during WW2. A small band sets out to rescue her.

Lovely Diane Jergens is the young woman in question and her character slowly falls in love with the man who rescues her. Leopold Salcedo is the man who risks everything to help Diane and her father as well as others as they try and escape the invading Japanese.

This isn't a bad film by any means and if you're a fan of WW2 films this will be right up your alley. This is included on the set entitled Movies 4 You: Timeless Military Film Collection. Also in this set is "Hell Raiders", "Go For Broke" and "Tank Battalion".
