It’s been a busy, busy Spring for movies, including fans and filmgoers who have seen (or in some instances may be still waiting to see) director Gareth Evans’ latest film, The Raid 2, which opened the floodgates nationwide in early April. And with the film’s popularity among fans of Evans’ work, there’s a clear fascination with Indonesian action cinema, particularly with the weaponized choreography involving the use of the Kerambit knife, an ancient weapon which was once, like other ancient weapons, used as a farming tool.
Gh jyyThe knife can be seen in both aforementioned films along with others, including briefly in actor Dean Alexandrou’s next film, Reflex. This week however, we now get to see more of that hardwork pay off on the latest test fight short by Emmanuel Manzanares, and featuring Alexander Hashioka and Bryan Sloyer. It’s about a minute and a half, but still worth taking a peek as part of the embodyment of inspired action design courtesy of LBP Stunts Chicago.
