Once you start, where do you stop? KILLERS (KILLERS ????, Kirazu, 2014), the blood-spattered sophomore feature from the Mo Brothers (MACABRE), debuts on Blu-ray, DVD and Digital HD April 7 from Well Go USA Entertainment. Produced by Gareth Evans (THE RAID, THE RAID 2), the horror-thriller features a psychopathic Japanese executive who accidentally triggers a journalist’s “dark side” as they begin to connect over the Internet and make a complicated bond. The film stars Kazuki Kitamura (KILL BILL: Volumes 1 & 2, GODZILLA: FINAL WARS, SPACE BATTLESHIP YAMATO), Oka Antara (THE RAID 2), Rin Takanashi (LIKE SOMEONE IN LOVE, SHINKENGER, NEO ULTRA Q), Luna Maya (MY BLACKBERRY GIRLFRIEND) and Ray Sahetapy (THE RAID). A series of horrific murders just went viral, posted anonymously by the handsome and seductive Nomura (Kazuki Kitamura), a predator with a taste for torture. Thousands of miles away, disgraced journalist Bayu (Oka Antarra) can’t stop watching – and in a reckless moment discovers he, too, can kill. One man in Tokyo. One in Jakarta. A serial killer and a vigilante. As the posts multiply and the body count rises, a bizarre and psychotic rivalry begins -- and the face-to-face showdown that’s coming will paint the city in blood. KILLERS has a runtime of approximately 138 minutes and is not rated. Both the Blu-ray and DVD include the original English, Indonesian, Japanese audio in 5.1 HD Surround Sound with English subtitles.
