Well Go USA’s NIGHT OF THE ASSASSIN Kills On Hi-YAH!, Disc And Digital This Summer!
Remember The Assassin? Welp, that one’s coming to the U.S. too. Well Go USA did the lord’s work this year and acquired director Kwak Jeong-deok’s sword-wielding freshman thriller, and they’ve put out the first trailer with the requisite retitling, Night Of The Assassin.
After a deadly, long-dormant health condition surfaces during a mission, Joseon’s most lethal assassin goes into hiding to seek a cure without revealing his identity. But upon witnessing a ruthless campaign of terror against local villagers, the region’s deadliest killer comes out of retirement in order to exact his own brutal brand of vigilante justice.
The Joseon-era action thriller stars Shin Hyun-joon, Lee Moon-sik, Kim Min-kyun, Hong Eunki, and Kim Byung-choon. Well Go USA’s premiere Asian film streamer, Hi-YAH!, will launch the pic on July 21, with an August 8 release on Digital, Blu-ray and DVD.
