The Last Hunter (1980) *** (out of 4) Set during the Vietnam War, Captain Morris (David Warbeck) agrees to go on a secret mission behind enemy lines where he meets up with some other soldiers and a photographer (Tisa Farrow). The group heads deep into the jungle where they face the enemy as well as some of their own who are just as bad as the Vietnamese. Antonio Margheriti's THE LAST HUNTER is an entertaining rip-off of countless American Vietnam movies that were being pumped out by Hollywood. This one borrows from several of them but it seems the biggest influence on this film was THE DEER HUNTER. If you're a fan of Italian cinema then you'll certainly want to check this one out as there's plenty of wild, over-the-top action as well as plenty of sleaze, which is exactly what you'd expect from a film like this. As you should expect, Margheriti does a very good job with the material as I'm sure they were working on a very small budget yet the film looks very professional and features some great action sequences. The highlight of the film is an insane shoot out in an American compound as the soldiers get a bit too relaxed and come under attack. This sequence features a lot of shooting, explosions and of course blood. Speaking of blood, if you like gore then you'll get plenty of that here with some rather insane moments of violence including an eye wound that would make Lucio Fulci proud. The film also benefits from a nice cast to help keep you entertained. Warbeck is as fun as you'd expect him to be as he does a very good job in the lead role. He's such a fun actor that he can hold your attention throughout the running time. Farrow does a surprising * scene here and she too is fun to watch. Obviously the two of them would appear in separate films by Fulci so it was fun getting to see them here. Former football star Tony King is also a lot of fun here as is Bobby Rhodes and John Steiner. THE LAST HUNTER isn't a film that's meant to be taken serious. I'd argue that its ending is the weakest thing about the picture but if you're a fan of action, gore and Italian craziness then it's certainly worth watching.

The Last Hunter is Italian director Antonio Margheriti's take on the Vietnam flick - and as you would expect, it goes straight for the jugular and removes all the soul searching stuff found in films like Apocalypse Now and The Deer Hunter and the result is...entertaining, but underwhelming. Any depth is replaced by an array of violence and bloodshed, and that means that the film entertains on the surface but doesn't do much more than that...although I can't condemn it too much since I'm not the biggest fan of the 'great' Vietnam movies anyway. The plot is just as flimsy as you would expect and we focus on an American soldier. He's been given a mission to go deep behind enemy lines and destroy a radio transmitter that is sending out demoralising messages to the American soldiers, telling them words to the effect of 'go home and give up fighting someone else's war'. He picks up some allies along the way and of course gets involved in more than his fair share of fighting. The film stars David Warbeck who does well as the grizzled American soldier at the centre of the film. It's clear that he wasn't the most important thing as far as Antonio Margheriti was concerned, however, as he's far more interested in packing as much violence as possible into the film, and he does a good job with that; as shown by the many fight scenes. Every fight scene in the film is full on and very bloody; and the special effects are fairly realistic also, which adds to the credibility of the film. However, it all comes down to the fact that the film doesn't have much of a point. Of course sitting through the action is entertaining but there's no reason to really care for it and the film drags on numerous occasions as a result. It all boils down to an ill-advised and really rather silly twist at the end...but hey, I can't say I was expecting anything clever. Overall, The Last Hunter might be of interest to anyone who enjoys low Italian rip offs and/or war movies, but anyone hoping for a great Vietnam flick is in for a disappointment.

Once again, Antonio Margherreti manages to take Italian exploitation to another level, just like he did with Cannibal Apocalypse. The Last Hunter has it all: great cast, plenty of gore, funky soundtrack. It might be derivative of the Deer Hunter and Apocalypse Now but you don't have to sit through an hour and a half of a wedding in order to see David Warbreck torching folks with a flamethrower! First off, the cast is packed with Italian B-Movies stars: David Warbreck (The Beyond), Tisa Farrow (Zombie Flesh Eaters), Tony King (Cannibal Apocalypse), John Steiner (Tenebrae), Bobby Rhodes (Demons), Margit Newton (Zombie Creeping Flesh) and Massimo Vanni (Street Law). Each actor is given their own space within the movie to do their bit and they all come through - King's last stand against the Vietcong, Steiner's insane captain, Massimo Vanni's usual stunt fuelled antics, and through it all, David Warbreck laying wasted to half of South East Asia. Still, Margherreti's no fool. There's a grim air to the film, as each exploitative element is nicely contrasted by a blast of grimness, especially the radio broadcasts telling the GIs to go home to their spouses. Plus, the ending is either really poignant or completely daft, depending on your mood at the time. Don't be put off by the non-horror story line - The Last Hunter is another essential film for the collection.

Director Antonio Margherti who has also co-created the classic flick, Flesh for Frankenstein 1973 and was assistant director on the classic flick, Blood for Dracula 1974 has created another gem in The Last Hunter. Starring David Warbeck who was also in another classic flick, The Beyond 1981. Also starring Tisa Farrow. Also starring Tony King. I enjoyed the violent scenes. If you enjoyed this as much as I did then check out other classic Vietnam war flicks, Battle Rats 1990, Phantom Soldiers 1987, Siege of Firebase Gloria 1989, Not Another Mistake 1988, Bullet in the Head 1990, Apocalypse Now 1979, The Deer Hunter 1978, Full Metal Jacket 1987, Hamburger Hill 1987, Platoon 1986, Platoon Leader 1988, First Blood 1982, Rambo 2008, Rambo: First Blood II 1985, Warbus 1986, Eastern Condors 1987, Heroes Shed No Tears 1986, Danger Close: The Battle of Long Tan 2019 and We Were Soldiers 2002.

I had the privelige to see this awesome movie on a huge screen in 1997, it was shown at a festival as a tribute to the late David Warbeck. The opening sequence is truly stunning, a slow-burning scene in a brothel ends in huge explosions and sees Warbeck as an action hero in a white singlet years before Bruce Willis. John Steiner once again shows his prowess as his squad is picked-off, leaving only Warbeck and the larger-breasted of the Farrow species (Tisa), to escape tiger-cages and discover the identity of a traitorous broadcaster. Don't miss the final shot of Warbeck against the war-torn sunset, left to his fate in the jungle. It's a real kick in the guts, with the same power of seeing Martin Sheen rising from a swamp. The one problem the movie really has is that the identity of the mysterious traitor is quite ridiculous, but not enough to grind things to a halt. All in all, one to put at the top of your "must-get" list, right above beer, pizza and peanuts.

This film is one of the most entertaining Vietnam flicks ever produced. Truly excellent opening 10 minute scene, followed by a 40 minute lull. Picks up toward the middle though and keeps on chuggin along. Great cast, excellent gore effects, awesome explosions, cool claustrophobic camerawork, and a lot of funny dialogue make this well worth the 90 minutes. The poor Pan+Scanning is easy to forgive with a couple viewings. Owes more than a lot to APOCALYPSE NOW and THE DEER HUNTER, but honestly, who cares? Grade A entertainment.

Antonio Margheriti's L'Ultimo cacciatore aka The Last Hunter (1980) stars the late, great David Warbeck and Tisa "Zombie Flesh Eaters" Farrow as a group of soldiers who have a mission during Vietnam war to go and destroy some radio station of the enemy. Farrow is a photographer and Warbeck is a military captain and once they get on the way, they soon find themselves in the middle of fire power, deadly traps and killing as there are blood thirsty enemies everywhere. In other words, a typical violent exploitationer from the golden days of Spaghetti gore. This was definitely worth watching and getting the newly released UK release which is gorgeous widescreen and uncut, unlike many previous releases. The film concentrates on strong violence as there are horrible traps, bloody shootings, stabbings, limb snappings and over all gory mayhem, which is also pretty brutal and nihilistic, most notably the "boat scene" near the end in which the terror gets even more forms. This was the style of those days since producers wanted to make gory and violent films in all genres in order to cash in by the success of such box office classics as Romero's Dawn of the Dead and more importantly for the Italian themselves, Fulci's Zombie 2 aka Zombie Flesh Eaters. Director Margheriti has said that he wanted to do these two war related films of his (the other being Apocalypse Domani aka Cannibal Apocalypse, a horrific cannibal terror film set in a big city) more anti war themed and pacifistic, but the producers wanted to add large doses of violence and gore so that's why most of the time's films are so brutally violent. The Last Hunter was written by Dardano Sachetti, who worked with Fulci a lot. Director Margheriti is known for his imaginative camera style and often weird camera angles, which are perhaps too plenty in The Last Hunter as they become little irritating and underlining and don't mean anything when used this often. The first 30 minutes of the film is incredibly intense and the viewer definitely won't watch the clock during that, since the film is so exciting and fast moving at the beginning. The film slows down a little towards the end, but for most of the time it is pure action. The effects are very great, most notably the huge explosions which are plenty and fierce is this film, so the budget was definitely at least moderate. The gore effects have always been The thing for these Italian exploitation makers, and The Last Hunter isn't an exception. The gore effects are convincing and full of the usual "eye gouging close up" details which are also very usual in Fulci's zombie films like The Beyond and Zombie Flesh Eaters. The Last Hunter is totally pointless in any other level than delivering mayhem and violence so this is pretty classic exploitation film which still has great amount of cinematic skill and that's a great thing. I think I appreciate Apocalyse Domani little higher, but The Last Hunter is definitely noteworthy film for lovers of ultra violent and prolific Italian cinema of the 70's and 80's. 6/10

Although I'm a fan of the war movie genre I hardly could get through this. This movie has 20 minutes of good, believable and tense scenes - the rest is really cheap and not even entertaining. I trusted some of the reviews here and bought the DVD unfortunately. Do not waste your money on this one - see the real A.N.Redux instead. ... not to mention the STRANGE soundtrack (No - you will NOT love it)!

Cynical Captain Henry Morris (well played with mucho macho aplomb by David Warbeck) takes an assignment to go behind enemy lines in order to destroy a Viet Cong radio tower that's broadcasting demoralizing anti-American propaganda to US troops. Photojournalist Jane (an appealing portrayal by the fetching Tisa Farrow) and a motley squad of soldiers assist Morris on his desperate mission. Director Antonio Margheriti keeps the entertaining story moving along at a constant quick pace, maintains a harsh gritty tone throughout, delivers a handy helping of gory violence, and stages the rousing action set pieces with considerable skill and brio. Moreover, this film earns extra points for its fierce anti-war stance which comes complete with an uncompromising downbeat ending. The excellent cast of familiar Italian trash cinema faces helps a whole lot: Tony King as the smooth George, Bobby Rhodes as the rugged Carlos, Margit Evelyn Newton as the bitter Carol, and, in an especially bravura turn, John Steiner as the unhinged Major Cash. Dardano Sacchetti's derivative script copies both "The Deer Hunter" and "Apocalypse Now" with merry slavish abandon. Franco Micalizzi's funky-throbbing score hits the get-down groovy spot. Ricardo Pallottini's slick widescreen cinematography provides an impressive glossy look. Good low-rent fun.
