Demons of War
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Demons of War (original: Demony wojny wedlug Goi) is a 1998 Polish war drama set in Bosnia and Herzegovina, after the Bosnian War. In February 1997 commander of a Polish IFOR unit, Major Edward Keller (Boguslaw Linda) is put under investigation for breaking orders and instructions. His company is assigned a new commander, Major Czeslaw Kusz (Tadeusz Huk), who arrives accompanied by combat-unexperienced military prosecutor Lt. Czacki (Olaf Lubaszenko). After arrival of the two, IFOR command receives an SOS-signal from a downed chopper. Maj. Keller decides to go into action, even though he's ordered to stay.
Polish title refers to Spanish painter Francisco Goya.
The following weapons were used in the movie Demons of War:
Handguns
P-83 Wanad
Lt. Czacki (Olaf Lubaszenko) carries P-83 Wanad as his sidearm.
MAG-95
The mercenary Filip (Christoph Rex-Jarnot) pulls a MAG-95 pistol on Major Keller during the final battle for the village.
Rossi Model 971
Major Keller (Boguslaw Linda) is equipped with a Rossi Model 971 with a ported barrel.
Machine Pistols
PM-84 Glauberyt
Skija (Slobodan Custic), commander of the separatists, is seen with a PM-84 Glauberyt submachine gun.
Assault Rifles
AKS-47
The Kbk AK with folding stock is a Polish copy of the AKS-47 rifle. These rifles are used by Polish IFOR soldiers in the movie, which is an anachronism as in 1990s all AK(S)-47 in Polish armed forces were replaced by AKM variants (with the sole exception of the Kbkg wz.60 adapted to fire rifle-grenades). This implies that the AKS-47 was used instead of the AKMS, which is evidenced by Maj. Keller (Boguslaw Linda) who, in a memorable scene, points out to his soldiers that what they've got are not "water guns but Kbk AKMS".
Serbian separatists are also armed with AKS-47 assault rifles.
