'''''Junglergound''''' is a 1995 {{Canadian|Movies}} ActionGenre film starring Wrestling/RoddyPiper.
Jake Cornell is a police lieutenant on a sting operation in Jungleground. What's Junglegroud, you may ask? It's a section of the city that's such a complete WretchedHive that any cop who goes there in uniform is guaranteed to die. And Jake's just been discovered by Odin, a crime boss trying to control the whole area. Now, with his fiancee kidnapped, Jake must survive the night in a place where the law doesn't apply.

!!This film contains examples of:
* AntiVillain: Dragon, one of Odin's lieutenants, may be a criminal enforcer, but he genuinely believes in Odin's plan of eliminating all drugs in his territory ([[spoiler:which is a lie, but Dragon doesn't know this]]), and is fiercely protective of his brother. [[spoiler:He reforms and joins Jake at the end.]]
* BigBad: Odin, a crime boss trying to control Jungleground.
* BigBadWannabe: Basetti, a drug kingpin who has cornered that market in Jungleground, tires to be a threat, but Odin and the Ragnarockers are far more proactive in their villainy.
* CrapsackWorld: Jungleground is a section of the city so full of criminals that the police refuse to go there for fear of their lives. It's in such a constant and extreme MobWar that there is no neutral ground.
* ForeignCultureFetish: Odin and the Ragnarockers as a whole are obsessed with the Old Norse, down to taking Norse god codenames and naming their nightclub Valhalla.
* HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler:Dragon, one of Odin's lieutenants, joins Jake after he learns that Odin lied about ending the drug trade.]]
* HookerWithAHeartOfGold: Jake's only ally in his attempt to escape Odin's men is a prostitute who witnessed his capture earlier.
* HuntingTheMostDangerousGame: After capturing Jake, Odin has a bunch of his lieutenants chase him through Jungleground for his own amusement.
* IHaveYourWife: Odin has two of his assassins take Jake's girlfriend hostage to force him to participate in his game.
* LoopholeAbuse: [[spoiler:Jake manages to escape before dawn, thus winning Odin's game and promise to not kill him. Odin says that he won't kill Jake, but his goons will.]]
* MobWar: Odin starts one with the other dominant powers of Jungleground in an attempt to take their territory.
* ThePlace
* ShoutOut: When Jake holds a gun to a goon's head, he tells him to [[WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes "Be vewwy, vewwy quiet."]]
* StraightEdgeEvil: The Ragnarockers kill anybody who sells drugs in their area, acting like it's because they don't want poison on their streets. [[spoiler:This is a lie, they just want to sell the drugs themselves.]]
* VillainOpeningScene: A Ragnarocker assassinating a rival drug dealer and hitman.
