Movies - Section 8 (2022)

My views

  • One of the many 'B Movies" on the market
  • Mickey Rourke is in terrible shape (too many plastic surgeries)
  • Very much aligned with Dolph :)

Plot

During the US war in Afghanistan, a Marine platoon is ambushed by the Taliban, leaving only Jake Atherton and his commanding officer Captain Tom Mason as survivors. After being discharged, Jake works as a mechanic in an auto-shop owned by former gang member Earl. After Jake dispatches a group of Mexican gangsters who come to collect the debt Earl owes them, the gangsters slaughter his family in retaliation. Jake enters the nightclub where the gang members gather and kills them all. Before he is executed, the leader of the gang tells Jake that someone forced them to kill his family.

Jake is extricated from prison by Mason to be recruited by a man named Sam Ramsey for a secret organization called Section 8, which is sanctioned to “eliminate any threats, anywhere in the world.” The group of assassins goes on various missions including one to kill a senator. At this point Jake realizes the secret organization is not what it seems. He must eventually turn against the people he’s working with.

The following day, another victim, who had been forced to cut one pound (0.45 kg) of flesh from his body, is found; the crime scene is marked " greed ." Clues at the scene lead Somerset and Mills to the  sloth  victim, a drug-dealing  pederast  whom they find emaciated and restrained to a bed. Photographs reveal the victim was restrained for precisely one year. Somers...
