This is badass! The Raid 1 & 2 director Gareth Evans has released a short film online that he produced entirely on his own. It’s a short samurai film shot in Wales that is a test sequence to prove that they can film action similar to The Raid films but with a PG-13 rating. The main cast includes Hannah Al Rashid, Yayan Ruhian and Cecep Arif Rahman. This isn’t anything more than a test sequence, but it’s awesome to see and hopefully good inspiration for filmmakers trying to figure out how to shoot action. I dig the black & white style, as it allows the viewer to appreciate the composition. I’m a fan of Gareth Evans (watch my interview from a few years ago) and I think he’s one of the most talented action directors making films today. Enjoy! ›››
