Red Scorpion
1989, 102 minutes, Rated M
Nikolai (Dolph Lundgren) is a Spetsnaz - a Soviet agent par excellence trained in deep undercover work. Assigned to infiltrate and squelch a rebel African uprising, Nikolai unexpectedly finds himself drawn to the guerilla's cause, a betrayal that enrages his Russian superiors, who order his immediate termination. Making his escape through the harsh desert in the company of an adversarial American journalist (M. Emmet Walsh), Nikolai allies himself with a tribe of rebel bushmen, his fierceness in combat earning him the nickname "Red Scorpion".
Nikolai's independence climaxes in his leadership of the rebels against his former comrades, storming their headquarters in a lethal, no-quarter showdown.
