Operation Blood Hunt (2024) — English Action

In 1944, during the height of World War II, a group of U.S. Marines stationed on a remote South Pacific island mysteriously disappears without a trace. The military, desperate for answers, enlists Reverend Alexander Conte, an occult expert with a troubled past, to investigate. Accompanied by a team of misfit soldiers—including the grizzled mercenary Richter, the flamethrower-wielding Elkins, the devout Ramirez, the scholarly Dr. Mallory, and the traumatized Corporal Dax—Conte embarks on a perilous mission to uncover the truth behind the vanishing Marines. As the team delves deeper into the jungle, they discover a Marine outpost abandoned in a gruesome state, with signs pointing to a massacre by a pack of werewolves. The island's inhabitants reveal a cursed history, where warriors transformed into lycanthropes to protect their land, only to become monstrous predators. The group faces relentless attacks from these creatures, leading to a harrowing battle for survival.
