Being a cop is tough. But in 1968 Saigon, being a cop is crazy.
Saigon, 1968: Someone - possible a high-ranking American officer - is brutally murdering Vietnamese prostitutes with children by American fathers, and plainclothes military cops Sgt. Buck McGriff (Academy Award Nominee - 1987 Best Actor in a Supporting Role - Willem Dafoe, PLATOON) and Sgt. Albaby Perkins (Tony Nominee Gregory Hines, COTTON CLUB) are put in the case that no one wants solved. But things are never what they seem in the "Nam, including a novice nun (Amanda Pays), a deranged Colonel (Scott Glenn) and a twisted trail of clues that takes McGriff and Perkins from back alleys to battlefields in search of a serial killer who's ready to make them the next victims. Fighting incredible odds, placed in impossible situations, can they solve the case before they lose their sanity or their lives?
Fred Ward, Keith David and David Alan Grier co-star in this explosive action thriller that the Washington Post calls "LETHAL WEAPON in Vietnam," where everyone is a suspect, anything can be covered up and no crime or place is ever OFF LIMITS.
