Does anyone know if there is equity or index fund specifically targeted to BRICK country companies?

EEM, VWO, VEIEX, DGS and other emerging markets funds. Full disclosure: I own EEM and DGS and I think VWO.

VWO is only about 40% BRIC. I don't know the others, it would be easy enough to look up. At any rate I'm sure there's a fund out there that focuses exclusively on BRIC.

Claymore, HSBC and Excel all have BRIC, if not BRICK funds:
Claymore BRIC ETF Common: Fund Quicktakes® | Overview
HSBC BRIC Equity: Fund Quicktakes® | Overview
Excel Funds Management Inc. - Excel BRIC Fund - Fund Details
