Revision as of 17:47, 29 May 2014
La Horde or The Horde is a 2009 French horror film, directed by Yannick Dahan and Benjamin Rocher, it stars Jean-Pierre Martins (as Ouessem), Eriq Ebouaney (as Adewale) and Doudou Masta (as Bola). It tells the story of a group of French police officers attempting to take down a group of drug dealers in retaliation for the killing of a fellow police officer. However, soon both the police and the drug dealers find themselves directly in the middle of a zombie outbreak.
NOTE: Identifying a majority of these weapons was very difficult as the movie was filmed in almost complete darkness, so even the most recognizable weapon was very difficult to identify due to lighting.
Also, for various reasons, many characters switch weapons in the course of the film, so that character X's handgun may later be seen in the hands of character Y, etc.
The following weapons can be seen in the film La Horde:
The police officers initially carry and use the SIG Pro SP2022, which (in 9x19mm) is the standard-issue handgun of the Gendarmerie Nationale, the Police Nationale and various other French law enforcement agencies.
