THE MOVIE<\/strong>
\n<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Plot Synopsis: <\/strong>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\u2019t stop watching \u2013 and in a reckless moment discovers he, too, can kill.<\/p>\n

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 \u2013 and the face-to-face showdown that\u2019s coming will paint the city in blood.<\/p>\n

VIDEO \u2013 3.75\/5<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Killers<\/em><\/strong> slashes onto Blu-ray courtesy of Well Go USA and presented with a 1.78 widescreen aspect ratio and a 1080p high-definition transfer. The picture for the most part is fine if not having a bleached\/washed out, though colors at times do have a certain pop to them and detail levels are nice and sharp. There are some issues with banding, however, so it\u2019s not a perfect transfer but certainly good enough.

AUDIO \u2013 3.5\/5<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The multi-language 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio track (Indonesian, Japanese and English) \u2013 with forced subtitles, sounds good though nothing amazing. The dialogue levels are pretty good with decent clarity, however it\u2019s not exactly a dynamic track nor is the depth the greatest, although I could discern some ambient noises coming through the front and rear channels.<\/p>\n

OVERALL \u2013 3.0\/5<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Overall, Killers<\/em><\/strong> is a well made foreign film with a good psychological underbelly to the blood, gore and torture pitting two characters against one another to the bitter end, it wouldn\u2019t surprise me if someone in the States didn\u2019t try to remake it in some fashion. The Blu-ray released by Well Go USA has good enough video and audio transfers but unfortunately no bonus material was included save for the trailer.<\/p>\n
