I love Monster, Zombie & War movies

I love Monster, Zombie & War movies ...I wish this movie could have decided what it wanted to be. Were the real "Horrors of War" your fellow soldiers attitudes? How they treat civilians?

The special effects are realistic, shocking and gross. The English dub is cheesy. Many people complained at the time that T.F Mou made Men Behind the Sun just for make some cash on this sad story, actually, i think tha...
