During a rescue mission, Aldo's father is killed by a villain with a snake tattoo on his arm. Oddly enough, Aldo looks to be at least in his fifties, yet his dad is a soldier in the same unit - probably not the best guy to send to rescue a hostage. Years later, Aldo finds that the school his daughter attends, which is for children who are mentally challenged, is going to be sold to a rich businessman who plans to mine something there, but in actuality is looking for a formula for eternal youth which was buried in a cave in during an ancient ritual.
Aldo gets the old team back together to take on the bad guys, and havoc ensues. Contrary to what you'd think by the cover, the ancient warriors are more of a promise than a reality. They barely figure into the movie at all, which is very disappointing.
The movie stars a greasy, smoking, peanut-eating Daniel Baldwin as Aldo's best buddy, and Richard Lynch as the evil business man. Good to see Richard is still acting, as he one of my favorite character actors. Aldo is played by Franco Columbu, a body builder who knew Arnold in his body building days. This was filmed in Malta using some of the same locations as the Joe Don Baker movie, Final Justice.
