The Villainess 18
From a young age, Sook-hee was trained as a sharp and deadly assassin. Now, undercover as a government sleeper agent she welcomes the chance to start a quieter life, but things aren’t what they seem and figures from her deadly past spill into her present, unlocking dark secrets.
This female-lead vengeance tale will delight fans of South Korea’s bloodier revenge-flicks, and pique the interest of La Femme Nikita fans. A violent and slick action-thriller with kinetic fight scenes that pack more than just a punch.
