This upcoming film The Old Woman with the Knife from Well Go USA just might make you think twice if you’re looking to take advantage of the elderly. Age is literally just a number when an aging assassin links up with a young upstart to clean up the streets and things are going to get bloody in a hurry as balded weaponry and action design are firmly on display. Scroll below for the latest noir induced trailer!
Aging assassin Hornclaw (Hyeyeong Lee) has seen it all, but she never expected to mentor a reckless rookie like Bullfight (Kim Sung-cheol). As their unlikely bond deepens, cracks form in the underworld they navigate together. When Hornclaw discovers someone wants her dead, she’s thrust into a deadly game of deception. With enemies closing in and trust in short supply, survival means staying sharp—both blade and mind.
Acclaimed actress Hyeyeong Lee (In Front of Your Face, Sudden Change) stars as an aging assassin in bloody crime thriller THE OLD WOMAN WITH THE KNIFE, on Digital on November 25 from Well Go USA Entertainment. Directed by Min Kyu-dong (Memento Mori) and also starring Kim Sung-cheol (The Night Owl), Yeon Woo-jin (The Killers), Kim Moo-yul (Ballerina), and Shin Sia (The Witch: Part 2 – The Other One), the film depicts the aging hitwoman working with her young protegee to take out society’s trash. They quickly bond as she mentors him in the ways of the blade, but, when she becomes the next target for elimination, there’s no one left to trust.
The Old Woman with the Knife looks like a satisfying slow burn tale of assassins old and new and the violent world they inhabit where only the strong and smartest survive. Make no mistake, even though our anti-hero of the hour is well into her twilight years, this one still looks to satisfy genre fans with ultra-violent action and a pulsating bleak vibe. It looks relentless and unforgiving, and it certainly looks to turn the tried-and-true assassin trope on its head.
THE OLD WOMAN WITH THE KNIFE also lands on Blu-ray™ and DVD exclusively through Amazon® on November 25!
