Synopsis

Based on the acclaimed Jack Ketchum novel, the brooding and dramatic revenge thriller RED sees Brian Cox (BOURNE SUPREMACY) deliver a standout performance as an old man out for justice. When his dog is mindlessly killed by some youths, and the crime goes unpunished, Av Ludlow (Cox), finds himself on a collision course with a powerful local family led by Tom Sizemore (HEAT). The acting throughout this film as it builds to an explosive climax, is nothing short of superb with Cox supported by a terrific cast that includes cult icons Robert Englund (NIGHTMARE ON ELM ST), Amanda Plummer (PULP FICTION) and Richard Riehle (OFFICE SPACE).
