This Philippine-American co-production is a rousing B action film set during WWII that dramatizes the Japanese army's last stand in the walled Philippine city of Intramuros. A devastating battle that all but destroyed the city, the Battle of Intramuros left thousands dead, but marked the end of Japan's occupation of the Philippines. Directed by two of that country's finest directors, Gerardo de Leon and Eddie Romero, and starring its most popular action star, Fernando Poe, Jr., THE WALLS OF HELL stands as an important piece of Filipino film history.
