Apocalypse Mercenaries Trailer (1986) Funniest Trailer EVER!!

APOCALYPSE MERCENARIES (1986) TRAILER

I had to put this up - probably one of the funniest trailers ever - and not for the right reasons!
Check out the randomly edited scenes used several times over, the women sitting on a toilet, the random commentary (i.e. I'm glad to hear the morale is high - because now I'm going to give you some co-ordinates!!!) and the guys who just runs and shoots.... :-)


APOCALYPSE MERCENARIES (1986)
Directed by Leandro Lucchetti (as John Dowson)
Starring Vassili Karis, Karl Landgren (Bruno Bilotta)
From the producers of AENIGMA and CROSS MISSION comes Leandro Lucchetti's (BLOODY PSYCHO) directorial debut. This is an over-the-top WW2 piece of trash which features non-stop violence, train explosions and gas-masked commandos stabbing 3rd Reich soldiers! Fans of the director's work won't be surprised by the tons of footage stolen from older movies. Stars Vassili Karis (GIALLO A VENEZIA) and score by Stelvio Cipriani.




The plot concerns an elite group of five mercenaries, each with highly specialised skills, who are hired to take out a German Command Center situated deep within a lime stone cavern system. Along the way to this objective, our intrepid soldiers of fortune also undertake various sub missions including blowing up an arms supply train and a German airfield (presumably said missions included by the filmmakers to pad out proceedings somewhat).

Sounds OK(ish) thus far? There's a slight problem though.Unfortunately, as mentioned previously, whenever said action scenes occur, one can't help but to notice the mismatched, grainy footage stolen from an obviously more ambitious, older war flick that is clumsily edited in!

God Bless you Andrew! Me & my mate have been laughing about this trailer for years! We also saw it on a video of 'Armour of God'. Never managed to find the film (it does look shit-which is what makes it so funny!) - Fly Boy! Ha hA!!!

@idefeatallchampion No worries - I was looking for it for ages and just had to put it up when I couldn't find it!

[ooeyb]

yep - i've been waiting a long time for this too! I remember seeing this on a rented tape of jackie chans armour of god years ago. We tried to buy the tape off the rental shop just for this ;-)

My brother and I were rolling with laughter! We used to call my brother 'fly-boy' because he was learning how to fly choppers in the RAF.

Ye Gods.... I was beginning to believe I had dreamed this trailer, back in the day.

I lost my "Armour of God" VHS long ago, and regretted the loss more for this than the film itself.

[ooeyb]

@Beelzeboogie you would think so, but thank goodness it was AT LEAST on it!

@ooeyb I really think Armor of God was the ONLY place this trailer existed.
