Combat Shock (1986)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qFrlR0bQBzI

This entertaining war film was made by Buddy Giovinazzo whilst he was still attending college. He borrowed the equipment from the film school he was at and cast his friends, family and fellow film students to cover all the roles. Combat Shock is about Frankie, a dangerously disturbed Vietnam veteran whose life is in turmoil fifteen years after his return from war. The film follows a day in the life of Frankie as he slowly descends into insanity and it was praised for its gritty realism. As such, the film offered an honest attempt to add some insight into the predicament of returning war veterans to poor inner city areas. Troma President Lloyd Kaufman regards Combat Shock as one of the company’s best.
