Surrender - Hell!
Surrender - Hell! is a 1959 American film based on the exploits of Donald Blackburn in World War II, fighting as a guerrilla leader during the Japanese occupation of the Philippines.[1]
Plot
Don Blackburn is stationed in the Philippines at the outset of WW2. After the order to surrender in 1942, Blackburn makes a run rather than become a prisoner. Helped by civilians he eventually makes his way into the mountains of Luzon, where he organizes the “headhunter” tribes into a guerrilla force. Along with other similar forces they liberate northern Luzon, to aid in MacArthur’s reconquest of the Philippines.
