An overlooked classic from an action master! Made by John Woo just before the game- Before Hard Boiled, before The Killer - there was Heroes Shed No Tears.

Master Director John Woo (A Better Tomorrow, Face/ Off) travelled to Thailand to make this fast-paced action classic. A group of mercenaries are sent into the so-called Golden Triangle to capture a drug baron, but nabbing him is the easy bit. Hes not going to go quietly: with both by gangsters and the army on the tail, this wild bunch is going to need all the help it can get...

No one has ever filmed gunplay as well as Woo and this was the first film that showed what he could do with a semi-automatic. Filmed with the same mastery of action that made Hard Target and A Bullet in the Head such classics, 88 Films are proud to present this Blu-ray premiere of a seminal action classic.

The Thai government hires a group of Chinese mercenaries to capture a powerful drug lord from the Golden Triangle. The mercenaries manage to capture the drug lord, but soon find themselves pursued by his forces, and the forces of a bitter Thai officer. The Chinese mercenaries are vastly outnumbered, and as their numbers begin to dwindle, their desperation pulls them into a corner as their enemies close in on them.
