Today Signature Entertainment dropped the brand new Boy Kills World trailer and a kick-ass new poster to go with it!
Get ready for the most gleefully supercharged action film you’ll see all year. Bill Skarsgård stars as Boy, a deaf-mute with a vivid imagination, driven by his inner voice, one which he co-opted from his favourite childhood video game.
He avows revenge after his family is murdered by Hilda Van Der Koy, the deranged matriarch of a corrupt post-apocalyptic dynasty that left the boy orphaned, deafened, and voiceless.
Boy trains with a mysterious shaman to become an instrument of death and is set loose on the eve of the annual culling of dissidents. Bedlam ensues as Boy commits bloody martial arts mayhem, inciting a wrath of carnage and bloodletting.
As he tries to get his bearings in this delirious realm, Boy soon falls in with a desperate resistance group, all the while bickering with the apparent ghost of his rebellious little sister.
What is no doubt a play on the 1993 Boy Meets World sitcom, Boy Kills World is certainly oozing with Deadpool goriness and Sam Raimi goodness.
The film stars Bill Skarsgård (It), Jessica Rothe (Happy Death Day), Michelle Dockery (Downton Abbey), Brett Gelman (Stranger Things), Isaiah Mustafa (It: Chapter Two), Yayan Ruhian (The Raid), Nicholas and Cameron Crovetti (The Boys), Quinn Copeland (Punky Brewster), Andrew Koji (Bullet Train), Sharlto Copley (District 9), Famke Janssen (X-Men) and H. Jon Benjamin (Archer, Bob’s Burgers) as the voice of ‘Boy’, Boy Kills World is directed by Moritz Mohr from a screenplay by Arend Remmers (Oderbruch) and Tyler Burton Smith (Alan Wake II) and from a screen story by Mohr and Remmers.
The film is set to be released April 26 and you can check out the brand new gory Boy Kills World trailer right here on Back to the Movies.
