Southern Comfort
It's the land of hospitality... unless you don't belong there.
A tense survival thriller that traps soldiers in a hostile swamp environment, using their ordeal as an allegory for the Vietnam War's disorientation and moral collapse.
A squad of National Guards on an isolated weekend exercise in the Louisiana swamp must fight for their lives when they anger local Cajuns by stealing their canoes. Without live ammunition and in a strange country, their experience begins to mirror the Vietnam experience.
