Legion of the Damned (also known as Battle of the Commandos) is a Macaroni Combat film directed in 1969 by Umberto Lenzi. The movie was a co-production between Italy (where it was released as La legione dei dannati), West Germany (where is known with the title Die zum Teufel gehen) and Spain (where is known as La brigada de los condenados).

Irish Colonel Charlie McPhearson has just had his platoon of 28 slaughtered by German troops. Angered at his superiors for this suicide mission, he takes convicts on his next one, along with fornicating American explosives technician Major Burke, to defuse underwater mines so that a commando squad can prepare for a June 10 invasion to destroy a tank gun. Because Colonel Ackerman, whose troops killed his last platoon, is the leader of the platoon in charge of the gun, McPhearson insists on trying to complete the commandos' mission.
