Southern comfort (Motion picture : 1981)

When nine National Guardsmen enter the Louisiana swamp for routine training, they incite an all-out war with some angry local Cajuns. Armed with a precious few bullets, and confused by the moss-covered maze into which they've stumbled, the innocent guardsmen know they'll be picked off one-by-one, until they come up with a solution using the only resources they have left, themselves.
