William Eubank is a director whose career to date has been spent mostly working within the arena of the science-fiction and horror genre. Eubank’s credits include The Signal, Underwater, and Paranormal Activity: Next of Kin. For his new film, Land of Bad, William Eubank has taken a pivot into both action and drama.

No man gets left behind in this high-calibre action-packed Special Ops thriller. A covert Special Forces operation in the South Philippines spirals into a brutal 48-hour battle for survival. When an elite extraction team is ambushed deep in enemy territory, rookie officer Kinney (Liam Hemsworth) is left outnumbered, but determined to leave no man behind. With an air strike closing in, Kinney’s only hope hinges on the guidance of Air Force drone pilot, Reaper (Russel Crowe), navigating unknowable danger where every move could be their last.
With a cast including Liam Hemsworth, Russell Crowe, Luke Hemsworth, Ricky Whittle, and Milo Ventimiglia, Land of Bad is packed with star power. The war thriller makes for compelling viewing and proves that William Eubank can do plenty more than conjure terror. Land of Bad arrives on Prime Video on 26th April 2024 and is ideal viewing for those that enjoy stories with incredible feats.
