Versioni alternative: - There is a sanitised version which has most of the gory parts removed, e.g. the skinned bodies, the alien with Billy's body, Mac's brains being blown out, Dillon's arm being shot off, etc. - After its theatrical release the film was banned in Germany by the BPJS meaning that the uncut version may not be publicly shown or sold. Therefore the television version and the video version have some major cuts. Almost every violent scene was shortened, some scenes were completely removed (eg the scene where Dillons arm is 'removed').

Plot: Dutch and his group of commandos are hired by the CIA to rescue downed airmen from guerillas in a South American jungle. The mission goes well but as they return they find that something is hunting them. Nearly invisible, it blends in with the forest, taking trophies from the bodies of it's victims as it goes along. Occasionally seeing through it's eyes, the audience sees it is an intelligent alien hunter, hunting them for sport, killing them off one at a time. A team of commandos, led by Dutch Schaeffer, go on a mission to rescue captured airmen from terrorists. When they discover that the airmen have been slaughtered beyond recognition, the team decimates the enemy encampment. Before they can radio for a lift-off, an invisable being begins to kill the team members. Hunted like animals by an enemy they cannot see, the team must survive in the jungle before they are all killed.
