TRIVIA

Trivia

Chris Haywood prepared for his part, by training with commandos in Sydney, Australia.

The movie performed badly at the box-office in Australia upon initial release. After it opened in Melbourne in June of 1982, after its poor run in theaters there, it wasn't released theatrically anywhere else in Australia. However, it found more popularity upon video release in Australia on Roadshow Home Video.

After this film was made, producers John McCallum and Lee Robinson went on to make another Australian World War II war film, The Highest Honor (1982) (a.k.a. "Heroes of the Krait", a.k.a. "Southern Cross") which also was commercially unsuccessful.

Shooting was plagued by constant rain.

The movie features Z Special Force, a.k.a. Z Special Unit, a.k.a. Z Force, a.k.a. the Services Reconnaissance Department (SRD). This outfit was an Allied Special Forces World War II specialist reconnaissance and sabotage unit, which was also the subject of John McCallum and Lee Robinson's next film, The Highest Honor (1982) (a.k.a. Southern Cross, a.k.a. Heroes of the Krait). Z Force went on missions behind Japanese enemy lines in Southeast Asia. The unit was comprised mainly of Australians, but also included soldiers from New Zealand, Brtitain, Timor, and Indonesia.
