- Synopsis:
Dolph Lundgren is Nikolai - "A Killing Machine" - a deadly, highly skilled agent for the Russian army whose brutal efficiency and single minded determination to serve the motherland leaves behind a trail of battered bodies and bloodied enemies. Now Nikolai must infiltrate an African rebel army who seek to defy their new communist rulers and take out their leader, but as he gets to know his enemies and the dignified Bushmen he encounters, he begins to slowly realize that all he has been taught was a lie. This Cold War rebel is ready to turn the tables on his Soviet masters and kick all kinds of ass! With a body count that leaves jaws firmly on the floor and a healthy disregard for troublesome logic, 'Red Scorpion' is a classic 80s action spectacular that doesn't let up for a second... - Actors:
