This is the trailer for the 1959 B-grade war drama, “Five Gates To Hell”, which is set in Indo-China during the escalating conflict in that region. I have uploaded this clip to embed in my web page about that film:

The film was the directorial debut of the author, James Clavell. It starred Delores Michaels as Athena; Patricia Owens as Joy; Neville Brand as Chen Pamok; Ken Scott as Dr John Richter; Nobu McCarthy as Chioko; Nancy Kulp as Susette; and Irish McCalla, of “Sheena Queen of the Jungle” fame, in a brief role as Sister Magdalena.
One critic commented that one of the principal reasons to see this early “Girls With Guns” flick was the chance to see Miss Hathaway from “The Beverly Hillbillies”, Nancy Kulp, weilding a hand grenade. That’s her being held down on the bed by Patricia Owens while receiving a lecture about how “You’ve gotta use your sex!”.
Eraserhead (released in France as The Labyrinth Man) is a 1977 surrealist-horror film written and directed by David Lynch. The film stars Jack Nance and Charlotte Stewart. Eraserhead initially polarized and baffled many critics and movie-goers, but over time the film has become a cult classic.
In 2004, the film was deemed “culturally significant” by the United States Library of Congress and selected for preservation in the National Film Registry. Lynch has described his film as a “dream of dark and troubling things.”
Eraserhead is considered a difficult film to understand and is open to various interpretations. For example, the review at DVD Verdict offers at least three interpretations. The story does not have a strictly linear plot, it is punctuated with fantasy/dream sequences of differing lengths, and the boundary between these sequences and the primary narrative strand is often blurred. Many have interpreted it as a visual-sound experience rather than a narrative or story, a film that is more about conveying a very specific and powerful mood and atmosphere. Lynch has said he has yet to read an interpretation of the film that is the same as his own.
