Azrael, a near-wordless action horror film starring Samara Weaving, opens in South Korean theaters on October 15. The 85-minute, adults-only film builds tension through breath, movement and pursuit rather than dialogue.

Korean release

Lumix Media and Nine Planners are handling the Korean release, set for October 15. The film follows Azrael after she escapes a post-Rapture community where speaking is treated as a sin and becomes the target of a ritual hunt.

Main trailer

The Korean main trailer uses almost no dialogue, cutting between forest imagery, ritual scenes, bows, guns and a night car chase. The film was invited to the Bucheon International Fantastic Film Festival’s Adrenaline Ride section.
