Well I guess we can finally answer the burning question that all of us had earlier this year, was Steven Seagal’s Sniper: Special Forces a part of the ‘Sniper’ series? Apparently not, because here is another official entry in that series. This one, Sniper: Ghost Shooter is actually the sixth in the series. So here is the skinny for people already about to give up; No, it no longer features Tom Berenger, yes, it’s directed by Don Michael Paul and yes, it features fake muzzle flashes and is generally like a lengthy YouTube fan creation.
The film sees Chad Michael Collins return as Brandon Beckett, son of Samuel Beckett (Tom Berenger) as he is tasked with dealing with protection for certain individuals in a trans-Georgian oil pipeline that is under constant attack from insurgents. Beckett is part of a team that is lead by Richard Miller, played by Billy Zane who again returns to the series. Dennis Haysbert also shows up for his paycheque, doing the usual ‘Colonel’ thing, giving orders off-screen. Beckett and various team members travel central and eastern Europe engaging in pitched battles, with the former suspecting that a corrupt individual is within their ranks.
