흥미로운 사실

Assault on Devil's Island, also known as Shadow Warriors, is a 1997 Canadian–American made-for-television action film directed by Jon Cassar, starring Terry "Hulk" Hogan, Carl Weathers and Shannon Tweed. Hogan and Weathers portray Navy SEALs who team up with Tweed's DEA agent to fight drug-funded mercenaries holding a sports team hostage on a Caribbean island.

Production

Promoted as "the biggest original movie Turner's network [TNT] has attempted", Assault on Devil's Island had a budget of US$4 million. While produced by Berk/Schwartz/Bonann Productions, who were responsible for the Thunder in Paradise film and ensuing series, it aimed to reinvent Hogan as a "more serious and gritty" character than seen in the predominantly family-oriented fare he was known for at that point.

The film was shot in Miami and Key West, Florida, as well as in Nassau, Bahamas. The Tampa Tribune dated filming as taking place in July 1997. The titular Devil's Island, a military stronghold used as the villains' base of operations, was in fact Fort Jefferson, located off the coast of Key West. According to Hogan, the shoot was a smooth one: originally scheduled for twenty-four days, it was wrapped in just fourteen.

Mike White was a real-life Navy SEAL. He and martial artist Billy Blanks served as production advisors in addition to their acting duties. White trained the cast for the scuba diving sequences. Blanks was Shannon Tweed's instructor. She had been training in kickboxing for five years prior to the film. Hogan wore custom-made wigs, each made at a cost of $5000.

Before the TV premiere, Hogan assured viewers that the film—which received a TV-14 rating— would feature no nudity despite Tweed's numerous softcore appearances. However, the cut seen in the home video version does include partial nudity, and was rated R for "violence and a scene of sexuality". Right after this, Jon Cassar directed Hogan again in the feature film The Ultimate Weapon.
