Bataan is a 1943 World War II film about thirteen men chosen to blow up a bridge on the Bataan peninsula and keep the Japanese from rebuilding it. The group is whittled down through misadventure, disease, and skirmishes with the ever-advancing Japanese, until only a handful remain for a still-shattering last stand that contains some of the most gruesome hand-to-hand combat put on film during the 1940's.
