Who's in the Soulcatcher cast?

Soulcatcher is a Polish  thriller with a twist. In Daniel Markowicz's movie (now streaming on Netflix), we're introduced to a group of mercenaries who've been sent to an island to retrieve evidence of General Yousif's experiments with a terrifying new device called "Soulcatcher".
