Nope, it ain’t a full feature on John Kreese and Cobra Kai dojo, but it is NO MERCY!
That’s right y’all, a new Korean chiller headed our way called NO MERCY is a flick we’ve just culled a few details about, so if a violent kidnap-and-torture thriller sounds like a nice cocktail to welcome the new year…by all means read up on this sumbitch below.
Written and directed by first-timer Kim Hyeong-Joon, NO MERCY goes like this:
Hidden in the bushes along the river bank, a woman’s body is found severed into six parts. Homicide forensics expert KANG is called into investigation, eventually arresting environmentalist fanatic LEE as the main suspect.
Meanwhile, KANG heads to the airport to pick up his daughter who hasn’t been back in Korea for 10 years. A stranger, supposedly ordered by LEE, gives KANG an envelope filled with pictures of his petrified daughter held captive. KANG goes to meet LEE believing the river bank murder case is involved with his daughter’s kidnapping. In order to save his daughter, LEE tells KANG to release him within 3 days, pushing KANG into an impossible fork in the road.
Hye-jin Han (below), Seung-beom Ryu, Kyung-gu Sol and Ji-ru Sung all star in the film.
Until the flick finds a release date (On DVD or otherwise), keep it here for more updates.
