Primitive War

In the humid summer of 1968, a remote jungle valley in Vietnam becomes a crucible of uncertainty. After a Green Beret platoon vanishes without a trace, the military dispatches a tight‑knit reconnaissance team to penetrate the tangled foliage and uncover what lurked in the shadows. The film’s tone blends the gritty realism of war with an uneasy, almost primal dread, letting the dense canopy and distant wildlife whisper hints of something far older than the conflict itself. The atmosphere is thick with the clamor of helicopters, the crackle of radio traffic, and the muted rustle of leaves that suggest the valley holds secrets beyond any soldier’s training.

The heart of the story is the Vulture Squad, a unit as diverse in skill as it is in temperament. Leading the group is Sergeant First Class Ryan Baker, a seasoned operator whose calm under fire masks a restless curiosity. Beside him, Sergeant Xavier Wise serves as the pragmatic second‑in‑command, constantly balancing the squad’s daring impulses with measured caution. The newest member, Leon Verne, brings a volatile mix of demolition expertise and youthful enthusiasm, while the steady hands of Eli Taylor and Charlie Miller provide the essential muscle and reliability of seasoned marines. Snipers Gerald Keyes and Logan Stovall add a silent, watchful layer to the team, each with their own quiet code of conduct. Overseeing the mission is Colonel Jericho, whose command voice carries both authority and the weight of unanswered questions.

As the squad moves deeper into the valley, the environment itself seems to react, hinting that they are not alone among the trees. Unusual tracks and strange sounds suggest a hidden presence that predates the war, turning each step into a careful negotiation between military objectives and the unknown. The tension builds not only from the looming danger of combat but also from the psychological strain of confronting mysteries that defy conventional understanding. This blend of wartime camaraderie, suspenseful exploration, and a subtly ominous natural world sets the stage for a journey where every discovery could rewrite the rules of survival.
