Synopsis

Today's street violence is the result of a permissive market for drugs. Affluent criminal societies paralyze! This is the story of one man who stands up...who believes he is responsible for the quality of the world he lives in. Internationally organized terrorists murder his father and pour into the country; Carlos burns with inner rage. Like many Americans, he perfected his commando skills in Asian jungles, but now the war has been brought home, and this family man hides his child, cleans his weapons, and takes care of business. Searching and destroying the psychopaths who brutally assault our society, this is a man that you can understand...a man you will cheer!!

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 14

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
