Identification notes
What is known
Found clip supplied for The Shadow Zone: a short clip of about five seconds, seen here through a representative frame. A man in camouflage fatigues and red-tinted sunglasses holds a rifle upright and touches his ear as another person's outstretched arm enters from the right, against a wooded background and mounded red earth. The frame has the look of a film still, but the performer and source are not identified here beyond what the filename suggests, which is unverified. Maker, origin, and date are not recorded. The exif scrub reported no location metadata to strip.
