Killer Force, also known as The Diamond Mercenaries, is a 1976 thriller film directed by Val Guest and starring Telly Savalas, Peter Fonda and Christopher Lee. It was a co-production between the Republic of Ireland, Switzerland, United Kingdom and the United States, and was filmed primarily in Namibia, which at the time of filming was under South African occupation. Its plot is about a gang of criminals who plan a major robbery of a diamond mine.

Production

The film was based on an original script by Michael Winder which Val Guest says "wasn’t very good in the state it was in and it had an awful lot of changes to be made in it, I took it over and they brought an American writer, Gerald Sanford, and we wrote it between us."

The film was mostly shot in Swakopmund in Namibia. Guest says they were helicoptered in every morning "into the desert because I wanted to shoot, where people hadn't shot, the dunes were virgin, so … we were dropped in every morning by helicopter, they flew the food in, it was tough going, but again enjoyable."

Guest says Peter Fonda "was a gentle pain in the arse, Telly [Savalas] couldn't stand him, called him the amateur. “Does the amateur know his lines?” “Yes.” “Well why doesn’t he fucking well say them instead of all these pauses. Fonda would create.
