Based on the infamous Great Emu War of 1932, a platoon of soldiers are driven into a brutal and bloody battle against Australia's 2nd deadliest flightless birds in this shockingly violent comedy. Haunted by the kidnapping of his son at the hands of vicious, feathered insurgents, WWI veteran Major Meredith once again takes arms against Australia's enemies - this time an armada of villainous emus hellbent on colonial destruction - and leads a platoon of crack troops behind enemy lines in order to kill the emus supreme leader - the Queen Emu.
