In 1988's RAMBO III, John Rambo and Colonel Trautman are leaving war-ravaged Afghanistan heading for the Pakistani border...what happens next...

RAMBO IV: HOLY WAR is a complete treatment for the fourth instalment in the Rambo saga, with
Sylvester Stallone set to reprise the titular role. ietnam vet John J. Rambo is now working as an environmentalist at the United Nations, New York, when the UN Assembly is hijacked by sadistic Islamist terrorists, who hold the world to ransom. Rambo tries to take the terrorists down, knowing that his Afghani-adopted son, Tomask, is part of the terrorist mission. One of the most interesting features about the new treatment is that the highly spiritual character of Rambo moves from his earlier Zen Buddhism to Islamic Sufism within the new film. Rambo has become Muslim.

The treatment, in its entirity, can be downloaded at at ww.alpha1media.com.

"Action movies have become like the movie business's equivalent of The Hunchback of Notre Dame. Just as Quasimodo was the ugly duckling in literature, action films have become the sore spot for critics. In the old days,people talked about biblical scenarios of action films. The Bible is action-packed. The Koran is action-packed. Even Buddha had a few moments of suspense in his life. Yet, when we make action movies now, we're considering moneymaking machines with no esoteric worth, and that's not true at all. There's a lot of artistry that goes into what we do. I tend to think of action movies as exuberant morality plays in which good triumphs over evil."
