In the tradition of Grindhouse, Kill Bill and Sin City, award-winning comic book writer Ed Brubaker (Incognito, The Death of Captain America, Daredevil) teams up with stuntwoman-turned-cult star Zoe Bell (Death Proof, TV’s “Lost”) to deliver a stark, stylish pulp thriller about a very bad girl gone “good.”

Gotta say that I really dug Ed Brubaker’s Angel of Death (2009), starring the perfectly capably ZoĆ« Bell (performing all her own stunts, natch). Interesting tale of an assassin fixed on redemption and revenge. Film succeeds the most when Bell is kicking ass onscreen. Solid.
