Wow, it looks amazing! Can’t wait to watch the final result. PS: What webpage did you get that pack of stills from?
Timo’s Facebook. Link in the body copy. 🙂
Ups, I hadn’t realized. Thank you so much!
By the way, do you think this film is going to be as amazing as “The Raid” saga was? By seeing the new pictures and posters, I hope so.
I wouldn’t come at it with that mindset. I think they’ll be similar in some areas, but overall, I think they’re gonna be different beasts.
Oh man Julie Estelle, what a beauty! Trailer looks insane. Cant wait for this. Maybe we see a blu-ray version from Asia before movie hits US theatres. Yeah!
I totally agree. There’s something dangerous-looking about her, despite her natural beauty!
The trailer looks insane, stylish, and violent – but also quite indebted to the look and feel of “The Raid 2.” I hope that the Mo Brothers are able to inject enough of their own aesthetic to help differentiate this from “The Raid” series. I mean, “Macabre” is still one of the best horror movies of the last sixteen years, in my humble opinion. And I think dropping Iko Uwais into the middle of a scenario like “Macabre” would be more interesting than just a simple retread of “The Raid 2.”
I agree with you, actually. Putting Uwais in a gory action-horror movie would be bonkers. I also think Edwards and the Mo Brothers may have a bit of a Tarantino/Rodriguez thing going on – trading/sharing vibes/ideas/actors. This may be an evolution of that. But I’m with you in hoping that the Mo’s bring their own tone and aesthetic to the proceedings.
WTH have to wait til Feb 17
Wanna watch it now
Anyways Iko always make one of the best action movie
Can’t wait
👍👍
Pingback: New Japanese ‘Headshot’ Trailer Starring Iko Uwais
This is NOT Japanese!! And why would you think it is? Iko Uwais and his entire team and cast are Indonesian. And it’s filmed in Indonesia. Just like the raid 1 and 2. If your gonna write and article you might wanna know what your talking about first.
The Trailer is Japanese. We are aware the film is Indonesian.
NOT JAPANESE….its Indonesian. Google it
The Trailer is Japanese. We are aware the film is Indonesian.
True iko fan…a ‘new Japanese trailer’ doesn’t mean that the movie is Japanese. You may want to read the article properly before posting multiple replies stating the obvious.
I’ll take a note from trump and admit no wrong doing. We should be playing American only trailers and build a wall around Japan before they attack us again.trust me
Why oh why can’t they release this on blu-ray? Lionsgate pulls this kind of crap all the time with their foreign film pick-ups. I guess that I will just have to import it.
Yeah, I’m really surprised. They need someone new to market their release of this movie. I would have used the key word “RAID” all over its cover, etc. Word on the street is that Arrow Video has the Blu-ray rights. Just waiting for the official word.
If Arrow Video has the Blu-ray rights then I’d definitely pick this up! A Lionsgate DVD-only release feels like it would be a disservice to this movie. Arrow would probably deliver some gritty extras as well.
Agree with you both. Not mentioning THE RAID on the packaging? Huh? Huge marketing FAIL. And further, Lionsgate is screwing up with not only the DVD-only thing, but I am pretty sure I’ve picked up a few of their releases where the only English subtitles were the ones for the hearing impaired, including such distracting subs as “Music cue here” and “Engine makes a loud sound”. Lazy. I’ll definitely be ordering the (hopefully extras-laden) release from Arrow. They are putting it out in the UK on June 5th, which is fine with me as I own a multi-region player. I hope they release it as an R1 Blu-ray here in the states though for real fans that only have regular players. But I don’t think that’ll happen if Lionsgate has it for DVD…
So Arrow are giving it a UK Blu-ray release? Perfect! Every day I’m more & more thankful that I put that extra bit of leg work in to make sure I purchased a multi-region player for both DVD’s & Blu-rays, it really makes all the difference. Shall add it to my existing Arrow pre-order of ‘Wolf Guy’ & ‘Doberman Cop’. “Sound of wallet rustling.”
