Teaser for Timo Tjahjanto’s ‘The Shadow Strays’ Badass Action Thriller

Let's go!! Netflix has launched a totally badass first look teaser trailer for the next awesome action film from Indonesian filmmaker Timo Tjahjanto titled The Shadow Strays.

Codename 13, a 17-year-old assassin, is suspended due to a sloppy mission in Japan. But she meets 11-year-old Monji, who loses his mother, and sets out to rescue him.

TIFF adds: "Not since The Night Comes for Us has Indonesia's preeminent architect of ultra-violent action, Timo Tjahjanto, conducted such a meticulous martial arts massacre. Opening with a bravura set piece that lays waste to dozens of yakuza, his latest proceeds as a kind of taxonomy of the action genre with a string of sword fights, shoot-em-ups, and old-fashioned fisticuffs..." Hell yes!! ...
