Honestly the original is crap!
Try this
"Chosen for their ability to kill without conscience, a group of killers, some trained and some who are not, must do battle against an alien race of predators whose aim out to hunt them down. Dropped into the vast jungle of a distant world, these human guerrillas must learn just who, or what, they are up against."
