The mission: Drive a fatal wedge between an enemy linkup. The troops: the 5307th Composite Unit, led by Brig. Gen. Frank Merrill (Jeff Chandler) and manned by Stock (Ty Hardin), Chowhound (Will Hutchins), Kolowicz (Claude Akins) and other young dogfaces who, after a few weeks of basic training, have the fate of the world loaded on their backs. Director Samuel Fuller, whose later The Big Red One is a benchmark work about GIs in World War II's European theater, turned to the war in the Pacific for Merrill's Marauders. Few moviemakers capture life among the grunts as well as Fuller. He brings you up close and personal to the intense, gritty heroics of our World War II combat veterans. ## Product Details - **Genre:** Military & War/World War II, Military & War/Drama - **Format:** NTSC, Subtitled - **Contributor:** Peter Brown, Claude Akins, Samuel Fuller, Chuck Hicks, Jeff Chandler, Milton Sperling, Andrew Duggan, Luz Valdez, Jack Williams, Chuck Roberson, Ty Hardin, Charlie Briggs, Charles Briggs, Claude Duggan, John Hoyt, Pancho Magalona, Will Hutchins, Chuck Hayward - **Language:** English - **Runtime:** 1 hour and 38 minutes ## Images ![Merrill's Marauders - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51ixgAyteaL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good enjoyable movie *by D***E on April 9, 2025* Another enjoyable movie. Good overview that's close enough to history. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Greatest movie *by L***Z on October 14, 2024* For me personally this is the greatest war movie of all time. Watched it many times in TV format but this wide screen format is really fantastic. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Another great war movie from Sam Fuller *by T***N on June 28, 2005* Merrill's Marauders is an excellent WWII movie dealing with a topic often ignored in war movies covering the Pacific Theater. In 1944, the 5307th Composite Unit, Merrill's Marauders, 3,000 seasoned jungle fighters, march into Burma with the objective of the supply depot at Walawbum and the airfield at Myitkyina. The Marauders must march across hundreds of miles of dense jungle, pushing themselves to their mental and physical limits, battling Japanese troops all the way. Like most Fuller movies, Marauders has plenty of great action scenes as the 5307th trudges across Burma. Along with the excellent battle scenes, Fuller includes several very powerful and moving scenes, specifically when the Marauders are resting in a Burmese village and are approached by the villagers. At a compact 99 minutes, Merrill's Marauders is a quick-paced, action-packed, exciting war movie from Samuel Fuller.Jeff Chandler gives one of his best performances as Brigadier General Frank Merrill, the commander of the 5307th who must push his men to their absolute limit, physically and mentally. Unfortunately, Chandler died before the film was released in theaters. Ty Hardin matches Chandler with his performance as Lt. Lee Stockton, Merrill's long-time friend and leader of the 5307th's scout platoon. Andrew Duggan plays Captain Kolodny, the doctor accompanying the unit. Stockton's platoon includes Peter Brown as Bullseye, the platoon's sharpshooter, Claude Akins as Kolowicz, the tough sergeant, Will Hutchins as Chowhound, Charles Briggs as Muley, the mule-packer, and Pancho Magalona as Taggy, the Filipino scout. Unfortunately, there is no DVD release of Merrill's Marauders, although this is one film that definitely deserves a release. The VHS copy is of decent quality in pan-n-scan. The VHS copies are getting harder to find, so if you locate one, pick it up. Overall, Merrill's Marauders is an exciting, moving look at the invasion of Burma that has been unfairly looked over since its release. Well worth it if you can find a copy. ## Frequently Bought Together - Merrill's Marauders - Darby's Rangers - Never So Few [Blu-ray] --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/194554074-merrills-marauders](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/194554074-merrills-marauders) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-04*
