  i think that the most similerity of the story and the movie is the setting. And also in the story its sais that"he sees&nbsp;piles of decayng machinary and a cliff being blasted for no apperent reason. " The same is happening in the movie. The soldiers blew up a village just to go surfing.&nbsp; An other similairy is Kurts in the movie.&nbsp; the jungle made him go crazy.
