'south-brawn' means, 'shut-up, Rhun!'

For decades I didn't understand what the bandit leader meant when he yelled at one of his followers, "south brawn!"
Then I purchased a dvd copy of KRULL. Thanks to the miracles of modern technology, I turned on the English captions and discovered what the bandit leader was saying. He was yelling, "Shut up, Rhun!"
How in the world could he pronounce, 'shut up', as, 'south brawn' (phonetically)?

its an english term, which was simply translated for US audiences kinda like one example:

"Im CHUFFED at going to the club tonite"-meaning "Im excited to be going to the club tonite"

South brawn?? He's saying "Soft Rhun!" What does "South Brawn" even mean?..

See! Even you couldn't understand his thick dialect, whatever it was. I listened several times and each time he seems to be yelling, "South brawn!" I mean, phonetically.

I always thought he said 'Soft Rhun.'
