I've never seen military soldiers be portrayed to be so incompetent in a movie until now, Sarge's death's was one of the worst ones, literally just a victim of friendly fire. Bruh.
There were actually a total of 6 mutants: Papa Hades, Hansel, Chameleon, Sniffer (the blind one in the tunnels), Stabber is actually Grabber's name, and Letch is actually Stabber's name. These are what's listed in the credits lol
The point is that these mutants suck so bad and are so defeatable that the writers had to weaken the soldiers as much as possible for the movie to work. If the military group was written well, they'd have to give the cannibals guns defeating the whole point of horror and suspense. They had to work with what they had. They honestly could have made the entire sequel out of that group of unarmed scientists
Nah they could have given the mutants some Uber guerrilla fighting skills, knives, bows, axes etc. and could have done a bang up job against these... "Soldiers"...
14:11 Their incompetence is staggering. You're right, accessing that he likely is suffering from tension pneumothorax. The average soldier is trained on how to treat wounds like this so that they remain stable long enough to get to better care. You can do it without the chest decompression needle, but it requires a little more finessing. 1. First you seal, dress, then bandage the exit wound. Make it air tight. 2. Seal the entrance wound with plastic and turn them on their injured side. 3. Then timing with their breath, open exhale, seal inhale. The weight of their organs will help push the air out. If I was them I'd be worried about what the UCMJ would do to me, and the guy in command that sent them out there in the first place is also likely to get thrown in prison.
Unless the purpose for sending them out was to get rid of them. I mean first they train them with live ammo and send them to mutantvill without explaining anything to them is too suspicious.

In the ARMY we were punished for leaving our rifles unattended or even just out of arm's reach. Everyone who serves in the ARMY, regardless of status (reserve, guard, or regular) has to go through the same basic combat training. None of them should have been that incompetent. But, it's a low budget movie written by someone who doesn't understand military tactics.
Something that's literally beat out of you in basic training. Like literally beat out of you, I had a buddy who left his weapon unattended in the field, DS literally disassembled the weapon, and threw the parts at him before smoking him till he was crying.
It says something when as a civilian I can see these soldiers discipline (lack thereof) and go... jesus f**kin' christ.... These soldiers made me almost cheer on the mutants. And then I watch this Nerd explained video and omg it was even worse than I realized.
The mutants couldn’t kill the last three. Their company commander will do it instead for leaving every rifle behind along with radios and other serialized items
So im an EMT just wanted to say 14:45 you want tape on 3 sides for a chest cavity wound like a stab or gunshot. This is a special bandage called an occlusive dressing, this is because you want the air to be able to leave the chest cavity to not compress the lungs and heart. But of course the steps in a trauma go step 1: Control bleeding step 2: Everything else
@@shootingbricks8554 needle decompression is do able but you would need to have the proper type of needle and training. The depth of insertion with needle decompression matters a lot. Too deep you puncture the lung, too shallow and you are just stabbing them for no reason. People as untrained as them should not be doing needle decompressions.
Nerd explains has basically given me a lot of good advice in surviving these events which made me do additional research. Thanks bro for your content. Like you said “Us Nerds gotta stick together”.
I watched this with my friend, we’re both Private Military, and proposed this to our CO for a ‘safety brief’. Now everyone in our unit talks about this movie constantly.
They should've made the movie about the scientists so them struggling against the mutants would make more sense as they most likely don't have weapons and weapons training
How did Doug from the first movie clap 2 huge mutants with ease using a flagpole and an axe but these clowns had a problem killing any mutants even though they had guns
@@majormoo9782 yep also in real life the mutants wouldn’t be that strong Radiation would have weakened them and also sterilize them especially if how their faces are.
I'm an Infantry combat vet. I seriously, SERIOUSLY, have never seen such a really bad depiction of trained service members until I watched this movie. Basic Training may sound "easy" because of the word "basic". However, it still trains people quite well in dealing with chaos adaptation. Me and my squad goes out there straight out of OSUT (Infantry version of Basic training) and we're going to handle the issue quite quickly.
Former 13B and it was pissing me off watching these morons. I thought to myself that give me a group of trainees in blue phase of bct and they'd do a better job than these nasty girls.
@@shootingbricks8554 right, NG is only less trained for combat. With the exception of reserve members that don't always get the best training because they are technically just part-time, the full time NG servicemen get most of the same basic training as army recruits. They don't do all the field training and combat drills but things like first-aid are in some ways trained even more so since that is more along the lines of what they are expected to have to deal with on a far more regular basis. Point is even if these guys are "just" NG they would at the very least be able to treat a goddamn gunshot wound and would have better trigger discipline and certainly would know how to set up a goddamn line of communication.
i always thought the guy in the toilet wasnt in the toilet, but that there were some tunnels down there through which he came and that was his escape attempt
You must be a young devil pup. Back in the day, the rail system was only on the barrel of rifles, so....yea the OG Acog's were mounted on the carrying handle. There were only M-16's as well.
I feel like a episode over the more action based episodes in “love death and robots” would be super interesting. Probably a review over how to beat 3-5 specific episodes
@@condor-yz6bo Me too. It was my second consecutive day of English and my hand was shaking like crazy. In my country, we have one set of exams and our final grade is decided solely on them so it's a high stress time. Makes uploads from my favourite channels and nice comments all the more appreciated
@@eadaoinl wow! That's some life-altering stuff right there. You should be proud of your hard work. I'm sure it paid off. I'm glad you got the years stress and exams. Hopefully the video helpped you chill a bit.
Around 14:30 timeframe, just wanna add: for gunshots to the torso, you dont want to pack into the diaphragm. Just wipe away the blood and apply a nonpermeable material (chest seal, assuming these clowns have stocked IFAKs) to the entry and exit wounds. But yes, blood loss takes priority (limbs and junctional areas: neck, armpit, groin)
One of the biggest problems with the movie was that the military team lacked a proper "smart guy/gal." They needed someone like Private Cooper from Dog Soldiers. Because at least in that film, it took one soldier's death and one (near) fatal wounded to take the team to realise they were dealing with werewolves in the middle of the Scottish forest. What Cooper did was keeping the team together and have them handle forces greater than themselves.
I still love how the blonde girl sees that Nicky got eaten, and still acts like they need to save the brunette girl and can’t just leave her, assuming she died, even though the blonde girl immediately tried to leave the smart dude behind😂
Love your videos as always, very entertaining. I've been binge watching through them for the past few days. BTW am I the only one who was a bit surprised when the word "Jap" was being used less than a minute into the video? I mean I know that's what we were being called that during the war ( and I won't be surprised if someone still did), but that was a "woah woah" moment for me. Still love the video though!
The larpers comment feels even more true at the beginning when they abandoned their guns mainly because the amount of shit they would of gotten in basic for abandoning their rifle in the first place, also sending the one guy back alone is 100% bullshit, where the fuck was his battle buddy, there would of been no chance in hell they'd of sent him back alone so definitely feels like the dropouts from basic is what makes up this team
When you've written a sequel where the suburban family from the original score a better KDA than the actual soldiers you've written, maybe that's a good sign that you should do a couple re-writes...
This movie is the epitome of why I hate most horror movies. The argument of "oh, you don't know what emotional state you'd be in" Or "You don't really know what your would do in this situation" Yes...yes I do. I'm a fucking idiot, and even I can see these terrible decisions from a mile away. Dog soldiers is probably the best 'military horror' movie I've seen, and even they do some dumb shit through the movie. Is it so hard to make competent protagonists and a smart antagonist to actually create tension via smart decision making?
Its also a dumb argument to use any horror film where the characters are military. Soldiers are trains to go into war, they wouldnt be as easilly spooked as emotionally driven civvies who never held a gun before
@@rhysjonsmusic that's a very good point. Even if we go with the idea that these are still in training. They are in combat gear and have access to live fire ammunition, so they at the very least had to make it through boot. People this stupid and unprofessional absolutely do not make it through boot. Like, I can detach myself enough to believe a lot of things, but soldiers acting like dumb high schoolers in an airsoft "army" is so far removed from reality that I immediately can't take anything in the movie seriously.
Let me, a weekend pipe hitter myself, tell you all about it! Sustainment. Food, Comms, HQ, Medivac would have all been established with the home unit. There would be a larger force of dudes sleeping in the armory to call if shit went down. Comms are super important. Their company RTO should be FUCKED for that. NO mission happens without comms and radio checks done at HQ first. Even then, there's a Primary, ALT, Contingency, and Emergency means of communication briefed. No 9 dudes would ever get tasked out to a mission like that. Shame on their PSG, LT, 1SG, and CO and XO for that kind of negligence. Transport. LMTVs and HUMVEE convoy. There would be no one truck that gets torched and now you're stranded. Ammo is tightly controlled. Especially if you're gonna be handling live and blanks on the same training mission. Other than all that, you hit the nail on the head. CID would be called in a heart beat. The whole mission would end when they find the first body and the soldiers would establish a cordon while they wait for medivac. On a separate rant, it really feels like you can't make a good horror movie that features (smart) soldiers. Or any horror movie that features soldiers. Because even our dumbest single digit ASVAB scoring MFs handle shit better than your average "teenage" victim.
"you can't make a good horror movie that features (smart) soldiers" I think that's fairly accurate. Dog Soldiers does an OK job but requires another trope: command deliberately using soldiers as bait without correctly briefing or even equipping and arming them.
Imagine how quickly their entire chain of command would be relieved of duty. No comm, bo support, given BLANKS on an actual mission, and so many more mistakes. I can see the shitstorm now.
14:46 for a chest wound like that you have to tape 3 sides and leave the other. This allows air out without allowing more in as well as helps to prevent blood from pooling in the lungs and chest cavity
Along with the incredible amount of stupid things those guardsmen did. One thing that wasn't commented on was @14:24. Sarge was shot in the chest and another guardsmen started doing chest compressions. Well, Sarge still had his vest on, and it was flexing under the pressure from the chest compressions. That means there was no armor plating in the plate carrier. These people not only used live ammo against each other during training, but they didn't even have the part of their body armor that makes it armor. They were just walking around the desert with camo vests, sweating because its just like an 8 lb. sweater, and getting outmatched by some deformed mutants.
If you haven't done the wrong turn series I'd highly suggest at least giving them a watch! I have no idea If their beatable but, I've seen plenty of mistakes in them
One of the first things the military teaches is never do ANYTHING alone. It’s so ingrained into certain groups, like the marines, that they’ll do something like go to the store together or go grab something from a car together. At the very least your battle buddy is with you. Sure, these guys are NG, but considering they’re rookies their sergeant (and where is their officer?) would keep them together at all times. It builds cohesiveness and minimizes the time out of your sight. At the very least he could have broken them up into three fireteams of three, one at the base, one to the top of the mountain, and he takes the third into bunker. God only knows what’s in there so it’s best not to take chances.
you'd think a marine type squadron would be more useful carrying what looks to me like m16s with a acog on them. a few well placed bullets should in theory be enough to wipe the degraded land of these mutants.
In all honesty, real military soldiers would not be this relaxed in an unknown environment, especially after finding the place they’re dropping supplies off abandoned. After discovering communication being cut off they’d likely get suspicious and do a thorough search and rescue/investigation into the matter. Not only that but most military groups working in small teams like this would more than likely be in constant communication with one another, especially when separate. After finding out the potential hostile environment (which they should already know of given the fact that the military has knowledge of the area possibly housing the murderous mutant cannibals) they would have someone sit back in a protective space in that mountainous environment with a remote control drone and monitoring and guiding/warning their squad about what they see. Not to mention flir/heat vision would likely make things incredibly easy in such an environment where you can see everything not hiding under a rock. I dislike movies that make the military/reserves look like they have no cognitive brain functions.
Ngl sarge died because of his own mistakes, if you hear gunshots and begin approaching your teammate that is shooting, you should call out so they know you are an ally
+Nerd Explains - 15:56 - Well, if I remember correctly, a National Guard veteran trained the bad guys in The Hunt, and we all know how THAT turned out. So I'm kind of not surprised by National Guard grunts being taken out by vicious mutants!
lol I feel like you were having a bad day when you wrote and recorded this, granted I laughed my ass off as you vented your ire on this movie, but god damn bro tell me how you really feel hahaha. loved it man, always keep up the great work.
If I had been one of them I would have more than likely asked why we were in full battle rattle when we’re just dumping off some supplies to a bunch of nerds playing in the mountains. Seems kinda sus that they would have us going in full kit with live rounds to drop stuff off in the states.
I think the military purposely sent Noob soldiers as a test experiment. To test the mutants fighting capacity, their intelligence and strength. I also think the noob soldiers were all specially picked do to their own psychological profiles, like their personalities. This would explain why a lot of them do dumb things in the movie. Like Missy having a psychological problem with peeing in front of people or Spitter being a paranoid shooter.
A quick thing about dynamite. Old tnt, especially if it has gotten wet, is more dangerous and unpredictable than dynamite recently manufactured. Tnt that has gotten wet becomes even more explosive; the gunpowder binding together because of the water becomes more reactive when it dries.
Even without the disapearences it´s a dumb idea to send an injured person back alone especialy in a rocky desert. Micky just has to stumble or even faint to either drop down a significant hight or injure himself even more.
I love the dead pan way u deliver alot of lines and insults "while my girlfriend thinks I'm thinking of other girls" lmao fuckin love it thanks for putting in the hours to make these vids always makes me laugh and get to learn alot of useful survival tips
It’d be interesting to see nerd explains go over ARGs like Gemini entertainment or Mandela catalogue if they ever finish or give more insight on how the monsters function or are neutralized
You do not pack gauze into a gunshot wound in the chest cavity. You would use an occlusive dressing. Due to the anatomy of the chest gauze cannot appropriately hold pressure and will likely get in the way of the lung expanding.
I would have let Nerd assess any situation first and make sure I have enough meat suits around me so he'll know what strategy I need to follow in order to survive?
If you're making a makeshift chest seal, you only want to tape it on three sides (typically top, left and right) of the chest seal packet or 'plastic', to allow the blood to drain out of the lung on exhale, and for the flap to close on inhale. Much like how proper chest seals have a hole with a flap over it to allow blood to exit.
These guys are insult to Reservists, calling them National Guard is giving them too much credit. I feel bad. I was making a big comment with all of the things I was finding wrong, but these guys effectively work like reservists. Heck, even Reservists and Guardsman given a training op like this, would probably just set up the grill and start cooking burgers and get the base sorted out and chill out. Hahahahaha. Also just throwing this out there, in training scenarios where they use their weapons there are two main avenues for weapon training is to either use blanks, which requires a blank firing adapter, or simunition, which requires you to swap the bolt body out for one that will work on the special ammo. In other words, these guys would not have live ammo for any reason for this. If it's a serious op where they do need to pull security, then they wouldn't deploy a lone squad, it'd be more like a platoon and armed to the teeth. But judging by the way this movie is being spoken about, maybe the movie doesn't know the difference either. They sure as hell don't know anything about military stuff.
I wanted to apply as a strategist but the whole reason I watch stuff like this is because I hate watching horror movies but i still want to know the stories

Survivors from the first film: "THERE'S CANNIBAL MUTANTS IN THE HILLS! YOU HAVE TO DO SOMETHING!!" The Military: "Riiiiiight.

@@nvz176 😂😂😂
If you've been watching these videos you should be aware to not underestimate anything. First mistake is over confidence.
@@asandax6 Over confidence is a slow and insidious killer.
I'm pretty sure the military was just getting rid of all the people they sent to the mutant Kill Zone without telling them.
The shit bags of the company 😆
It says something when as a civilian I can see these soldiers discipline (lack thereof) and go... jesus f**kin' christ.... These soldiers made me almost cheer on the mutants. And then I watch this Nerd explained video and omg it was even worse than I realized.
Undisciplined soldiers.
ahhahaha! Team Mutant
Possibly not real soldiers/ mission.
This so without a doubt the worst movie Iv ever seen and it’s not even close Iv seen a lot of movies but this one actually made me cringe
Yall don't know how incompetent people in thr military can be
I feel like the family in the first hills have eyes were at more of a disadvantage than these guys tbh great vid as usual my guy #Nerd 💯
Fr they did better than these soilders

@@mcchicken5039 National Guard* they are not real soldiers they're larpers with a government stipend
The mutants couldn’t kill the last three. Their company commander will do it instead for leaving every rifle behind along with radios and other serialized items
As a member of the National Guard, can confirm this is how it would go down.
Lmao 🤣 🤣.. im reading all the comments on this from military people and rolling 🤣 🤣
@@FaceFamous active duty? Yeah, they could hold their own! But, the Guard?? You have 1 competent person for every 20 dumbasses 😂

@@davisjacobs5748 they would get left behind then, time to leave
So im an EMT just wanted to say 14:45 you want tape on 3 sides for a chest cavity wound like a stab or gunshot. This is a special bandage called an occlusive dressing, this is because you want the air to be able to leave the chest cavity to not compress the lungs and heart. But of course the steps in a trauma go step 1: Control bleeding step 2: Everything else
I've been taught if you can do needle decompression, you can tape all 4 sides. If no needle, 3 sides.
@@shootingbricks8554 needle decompression is do able but you would need to have the proper type of needle and training. The depth of insertion with needle decompression matters a lot. Too deep you puncture the lung, too shallow and you are just stabbing them for no reason. People as untrained as them should not be doing needle decompressions.

as a 13 year military veteran i can tell you that the military higher ups not caring is 100% accurate
I watched this with my friend, we’re both Private Military, and proposed this to our CO for a ‘safety brief’. Now everyone in our unit talks about this movie constantly.
Honestly, mad props for your understanding of military tactics. I couldn't find a flaw
They should've made the movie about the scientists so them struggling against the mutants would make more sense as they most likely don't have weapons and weapons training
How did Doug from the first movie clap 2 huge mutants with ease using a flagpole and an axe but these clowns had a problem killing any mutants even though they had guns
@Salsay💗↘️ shut up bot
Because if they were Competent this movie would be ten minutes long.
@@superiorrule34 too damn true
@@majormoo9782 yep also in real life the mutants wouldn’t be that strong Radiation would have weakened them and also sterilize them especially if how their faces are.
The mutants from part 2 look much stronger
I remember watching this movie when I was a kid, and all I can think about is why the troops were so dumb.
Hell of a movie for a kid to watch. Lol The opening scene is gruesome as fuck and there is of course the graphic rape scene.
I'm an Infantry combat vet. I seriously, SERIOUSLY, have never seen such a really bad depiction of trained service members until I watched this movie.
Basic Training may sound "easy" because of the word "basic". However, it still trains people quite well in dealing with chaos adaptation. Me and my squad goes out there straight out of OSUT (Infantry version of Basic training) and we're going to handle the issue quite quickly.
I'm a high school graduate, and have more competence than these goofs 💀
@@automotivebespoke The mutants aren't even that and they're objectively more competent.
Former 13B and it was pissing me off watching these morons. I thought to myself that give me a group of trainees in blue phase of bct and they'd do a better job than these nasty girls.
@@CajunReaper95 actually in the past 20 yrs, almost half of the Army Guard Soldiers served in Afghanistan, Iraq or Syria
@@shootingbricks8554 right, NG is only less trained for combat. With the exception of reserve members that don't always get the best training because they are technically just part-time, the full time NG servicemen get most of the same basic training as army recruits. They don't do all the field training and combat drills but things like first-aid are in some ways trained even more so since that is more along the lines of what they are expected to have to deal with on a far more regular basis. Point is even if these guys are "just" NG they would at the very least be able to treat a goddamn gunshot wound and would have better trigger discipline and certainly would know how to set up a goddamn line of communication.
“I honestly will be disappointed if everyone doesn’t die.”
Me too.
i always thought the guy in the toilet wasnt in the toilet, but that there were some tunnels down there through which he came and that was his escape attempt
no, they put tiny cuts over his body and stuffed him into the toilet so he would die painfully, he only tried leaving when napoleon shat down
I’m a Marine, and I was on team mutant the second I saw they had optics on over the iron sights on M4s.
You must be a young devil pup. Back in the day, the rail system was only on the barrel of rifles, so....yea the OG Acog's were mounted on the carrying handle. There were only M-16's as well.
I feel like a episode over the more action based episodes in “love death and robots”

@@eadaoinl wow! That's some life-altering stuff right there. You should be proud of your hard work. I'm sure it paid off. I'm glad you got the years stress and exams. Hopefully the video helpped you chill a bit.
@@eadaoinl is it the leaving cert?
i’ve been rewatching so many of your vid’s recently- im so glad you’re back!!
THANK YOU!! Been waiting for this for "The Hills Have Eyes" series forever! Keep 'em coming!!
Around 14:30 timeframe, just wanna add: for gunshots to the torso, you dont want to pack into the diaphragm. Just wipe away the blood and apply a nonpermeable material (chest seal, assuming these clowns have stocked IFAKs) to the entry and exit wounds.
But yes, blood loss takes priority (limbs and junctional areas: neck, armpit, groin)
One of the biggest problems with the movie was that the military team lacked a proper "smart guy/gal."
They needed someone like Private Cooper from Dog Soldiers. Because at least in that film, it took one soldier's death and one (near) fatal wounded to take the team to realise they were dealing with werewolves in the middle of the Scottish forest. What Cooper did was keeping the team together and have them handle forces greater than themselves.
Just started watching your vids a month or so ago. Finally got in early on a new one. Love the content bro much love from 🇬🇧
I'm surprised u didn't at least give the guards props for when they double tapped the mutants when they actually managed to bring down one of them.
Kinda crazy to think the family in the first movie was ultimately smarter than these trained clowns.
I still love how the blonde girl sees that Nicky got eaten, and still acts like they need to save the brunette girl and can’t just leave her, assuming she died, even though the blonde girl immediately tried to leave the smart dude behind😂
Love your videos as always, very entertaining. I've been binge watching through them for the past few days.
BTW am I the only one who was a bit surprised when the word "Jap" was being used less than a minute into the video?
I mean I know that's what we were being called that during the war ( and I won't be surprised if someone still did), but that was a "woah woah" moment for me.
Still love the video though!
The larpers comment feels even more true at the beginning when they abandoned their guns mainly because the amount of shit they would of gotten in basic for abandoning their rifle in the first place, also sending the one guy back alone is 100% bullshit, where the fuck was his battle buddy, there would of been no chance in hell they'd of sent him back alone so definitely feels like the dropouts from basic is what makes up this team
When you've written a sequel where the suburban family from the original score a better KDA than the actual soldiers you've written, maybe that's a good sign that you should do a couple re-writes...
it’s a good day when you wake up to a nerd explains video.
This movie is the epitome of why I hate most horror movies.
The argument of "oh, you don't know what emotional state you'd be in"
Or
"You don't really know what your would do in this situation"
Yes...yes I do. I'm a fucking idiot, and even I can see these terrible decisions from a mile away.
Dog soldiers is probably the best 'military horror' movie I've seen, and even they do some dumb shit through the movie. Is it so hard to make competent protagonists and a smart antagonist to actually create tension via smart decision making?
Dog Soldiers is grossly, grossly underrated.
Its also a dumb argument to use any horror film where the characters are military.
Soldiers are trains to go into war, they wouldnt be as easilly spooked as emotionally driven civvies who never held a gun before
@@rhysjonsmusic that's a very good point. Even if we go with the idea that these are still in training.
They are in combat gear and have access to live fire ammunition, so they at the very least had to make it through boot.
People this stupid and unprofessional absolutely do not make it through boot.
Like, I can detach myself enough to believe a lot of things, but soldiers acting like dumb high schoolers in an airsoft "army" is so far removed from reality that I immediately can't take anything in the movie seriously.
0:29 ah shoot man is gonna get canceled for this one
Let me, a weekend pipe hitter myself, tell you all about it! Sustainment. Food, Comms, HQ, Medivac would have all been established with the home unit. There would be a larger force of dudes sleeping in the armory to call if shit went down. Comms are super important. Their company RTO should be FUCKED for that. NO mission happens without comms and radio checks done at HQ first. Even then, there's a Primary, ALT, Contingency, and Emergency means of communication briefed. No 9 dudes would ever get tasked out to a mission like that. Shame on their PSG, LT, 1SG, and CO and XO for that kind of negligence. Transport. LMTVs and HUMVEE convoy. There would be no one truck that gets torched and now you're stranded. Ammo is tightly controlled. Especially if you're gonna be handling live and blanks on the same training mission. Other than all that, you hit the nail on the head. CID would be called in a heart beat. The whole mission would end when they find the first body and the soldiers would establish a cordon while they wait for medivac.
On a separate rant, it really feels like you can't make a good horror movie that features (smart) soldiers. Or any horror movie that features soldiers. Because even our dumbest single digit ASVAB scoring MFs handle shit better than your average "teenage" victim.
"you can't make a good horror movie that features (smart) soldiers" I think that's fairly accurate. Dog Soldiers does an OK job but requires another trope: command deliberately using soldiers as bait without correctly briefing or even equipping and arming them.
Imagine how quickly their entire chain of command would be relieved of duty. No comm, bo support, given BLANKS on an actual mission, and so many more mistakes. I can see the shitstorm now.
@@SkaalKesh lot of early retirement/Levenworth visits. But comeon not even Ft Hoods command is this bad
@@cantera yo, this comment is based.
14:46 for a chest wound like that you have to tape 3 sides and leave the other. This allows air out without allowing more in as well as helps to prevent blood from pooling in the lungs and chest cavity
You forgot to mention at the end, a mutant slams their fist on the keyboard, indicating a never to come part 3.
Along with the incredible amount of stupid things those guardsmen did. One thing that wasn't commented on was @14:24. Sarge was shot in the chest and another guardsmen started doing chest compressions. Well, Sarge still had his vest on, and it was flexing under the pressure from the chest compressions. That means there was no armor plating in the plate carrier. These people not only used live ammo against each other during training, but they didn't even have the part of their body armor that makes it armor. They were just walking around the desert with camo vests, sweating because its just like an 8 lb. sweater, and getting outmatched by some deformed mutants.
I rememver watching this movie as a kid. One of the first horror movies I watched.
Kids should definitely not watch this. Ripping a baby out of its mother and graphic rape. But honestly nobody should watch it.
@@BIOZILLA1 I mean it was on TV late at night and I was awake and bored. But, yeah it's horrible and discresion is advised.
"This group of LARPers" - Damn, I see they were already dead before the mutants got near them.
If you haven't done the wrong turn series I'd highly suggest at least giving them a watch! I have no idea If their beatable but, I've seen plenty of mistakes in them
One of the first things the military teaches is never do ANYTHING alone. It’s so ingrained into certain groups, like the marines, that they’ll do something like go to the store together or go grab something from a car together. At the very least your battle buddy is with you. Sure, these guys are NG, but considering they’re rookies their sergeant (and where is their officer?) would keep them together at all times.
It builds cohesiveness and minimizes the time out of your sight. At the very least he could have broken them up into three fireteams of three, one at the base, one to the top of the mountain, and he takes the third into bunker. God only knows what’s in there so it’s best not to take chances.
0:30 just looked it up and apparently that short version of Japanese is actually a slur, thought you might need to know
You gonna develop a severe trauma just from characters stupidity in horror movies lol
you'd think a marine type squadron would be more useful carrying what looks to me like m16s with a acog on them. a few well placed bullets should in theory be enough to wipe the degraded land of these mutants.
They ain't Marines. Marines don't wear shoulder patches.
@@shootingbricks8554 ya but there rank is on the collar which is indicitive of a corpsman it is like a wierd combo of both uniforms.
@@shootingbricks8554 thats why i said "marine type" i know they aren't marines but idk the official name for them so i called them "marine type"
I wouldn’t think they could defeat the mutants, because there must be a lot of them.
I appreciate the fact that I have literally never heard Nerd misuse the word literally.
In all honesty, real military soldiers would not be this relaxed in an unknown environment, especially after finding the place they’re dropping supplies off abandoned. After discovering communication being cut off they’d likely get suspicious and do a thorough search and rescue/investigation into the matter. Not only that but most military groups working in small teams like this would more than likely be in constant communication with one another, especially when separate. After finding out the potential hostile environment (which they should already know of given the fact that the military has knowledge of the area possibly housing the murderous mutant cannibals) they would have someone sit back in a protective space in that mountainous environment with a remote control drone and monitoring and guiding/warning their squad about what they see. Not to mention flir/heat vision would likely make things incredibly easy in such an environment where you can see everything not hiding under a rock. I dislike movies that make the military/reserves look like they have no cognitive brain functions.
I watched this as a kid and felt sorry for the soldiers I was confused as to why they were so bad at their jobs.
Ngl sarge died because of his own mistakes, if you hear gunshots and begin approaching your teammate that is shooting, you should call out so they know you are an ally
+Nerd Explains - 15:56 - Well, if I remember correctly, a National Guard veteran trained the bad guys in The Hunt, and we all know how THAT turned out. So I'm kind of not surprised by National Guard grunts being taken out by vicious mutants!
lol I feel like you were having a bad day when you wrote and recorded this, granted I laughed my ass off as you vented your ire on this movie, but god damn bro tell me how you really feel hahaha. loved it man, always keep up the great work.
The only movie I heard him do so far that pissed him off.. 🤣 🤣
Damn my man said "They Negligently....no. Negligence implies they're smart and looked the other way. They UNCARINGLY sent in some dorks" 🤣 😂
Damn bro you really went at it at the beginning 😂
I like the new team sides layout you have on this video Nerd, well done btw
If I had been one of them I would have more than likely asked why we were in full battle rattle when we’re just dumping off some supplies to a bunch of nerds playing in the mountains. Seems kinda sus that they would have us going in full kit with live rounds to drop stuff off in the states.
I think the military purposely sent Noob soldiers as a test experiment. To test the mutants fighting capacity, their intelligence and strength. I also think the noob soldiers were all specially picked do to their own psychological profiles, like their personalities. This would explain why a lot of them do dumb things in the movie. Like Missy having a psychological problem with peeing in front of people or Spitter being a paranoid shooter.
A quick thing about dynamite. Old tnt, especially if it has gotten wet, is more dangerous and unpredictable than dynamite recently manufactured. Tnt that has gotten wet becomes even more explosive; the gunpowder binding together because of the water becomes more reactive when it dries.
Are you talking about tnt or dynamite? They aren’t the same thing you know. Also, isn’t tnt hydrophobic, not hydroscopic?
@@bertaboy9078 it's dynamite lol. I just wasn't sure what else dynamite is called
Even without the disapearences it´s a dumb idea to send an injured person back alone especialy in a rocky desert. Micky just has to stumble or even faint to either drop down a significant hight or injure himself even more.
I love the dead pan way u deliver alot of lines and insults "while my girlfriend thinks I'm thinking of other girls" lmao fuckin love it thanks for putting in the hours to make these vids always makes me laugh and get to learn alot of useful survival tips
It’d be interesting to see nerd explains go over ARGs like Gemini entertainment or Mandela catalogue if they ever finish or give more insight on how the monsters function or are neutralized
I would fly into the air. Charge up a ki energy blast and make a crater where those monsters lived.
You do not pack gauze into a gunshot wound in the chest cavity. You would use an occlusive dressing. Due to the anatomy of the chest gauze cannot appropriately hold pressure and will likely get in the way of the lung expanding.
I would have let Nerd assess any situation first and make sure I have enough meat suits around me so he'll know what strategy I need to follow in order to survive?
I'm starting to question myself if I'm actually able to survive anything because i always binge watch your videos.
You probably will if you've binged as much as you've said and retained the info, tbh-
If you're making a makeshift chest seal, you only want to tape it on three sides (typically top, left and right) of the chest seal packet or 'plastic', to allow the blood to drain out of the lung on exhale, and for the flap to close on inhale. Much like how proper chest seals have a hole with a flap over it to allow blood to exit.
Lol at the racism in the first couple minutes, very cool Nerd Explained
yeah i was like that’s literally a slur 😅
@hardstyle905 ok
The medical breakdown was bona fide. I think this RUclipsr actually deployed.
You know you have a shitty horror movie if the characters have to make glaringly bad decisions just so the baddie can get them.
I love your videos. I watch all of them as soon as I see it
These guys are insult to Reservists, calling them National Guard is giving them too much credit. I feel bad. I was making a big comment with all of the things I was finding wrong, but these guys effectively work like reservists. Heck, even Reservists and Guardsman given a training op like this, would probably just set up the grill and start cooking burgers and get the base sorted out and chill out. Hahahahaha.
Also just throwing this out there, in training scenarios where they use their weapons there are two main avenues for weapon training is to either use blanks, which requires a blank firing adapter, or simunition, which requires you to swap the bolt body out for one that will work on the special ammo. In other words, these guys would not have live ammo for any reason for this. If it's a serious op where they do need to pull security, then they wouldn't deploy a lone squad, it'd be more like a platoon and armed to the teeth. But judging by the way this movie is being spoken about, maybe the movie doesn't know the difference either. They sure as hell don't know anything about military stuff.
5:33 This tier 1 squad of stereotypes consists of: 🤣🤣

love your content as always! i do want to mention though that the word "j*ps" is actually a racial slur with disrespectful and negative connotations and has been for a long time, so it would be heavily recommended to just say "japanese" instead. (speaking as an east asian person here) thanks!
My Grandmother is (was as she passed away and she lost her residency after marrying someone in the 50's) Japanese. All the vile words that came out of people's mouths weren't good. Even her in laws were rude.
