My God, what a gory action flick!
Directed by the man who gave us the Safe Haven segment of V/H/S 2(2013) and Macabre(2009)already, An elite member of a Triad family, Ito, one of the Six Oceans, has a violent insurrection and revelation once he spares a little girl, who is the only witness of a genocidal town massacre.
Ito and the girl are hunted down by the family’s crime lord, henchmen and the other members of the Oceans, while some of his former colleagues/friends decide to rebel with him. The Night Comes For Us is an incredible amazing combination of martial arts with gore, and as far as the latter goes, it goes much further than The Raid movies.
Speaking of which, Iko Uwais is also starring here as Ito’s former partner, and he is on a vengeance too to punish and replace him. The plot is very violent, and this Indonesian flick is my favourite horror, and thus martial arts horror movie of 2018.
From throat slashes to bone breaks to blood pumping out of large wounds towards facial stomping, the list of bloody and “Oh SHIT” moments is high, and I can’t wait to re-watch this! Timo Tjahjanto is a talented upcoming horror director, is he becoming the next James Wan?
Rating: 8.0
