(2014) Redeemer (In Spanish with English subtitles) ACTION

Co-written, edited and directed by Ernesto Díaz Espinoza, starring Marko Zaror, he plays the title character "Redeemer" coming to the aid of a local community fisherman, Agustin (Mauricio Diocares) in Chile. As gangsters are after him, we find out later, when they learned he found a bagful of money while he was fishing. At the same time, Agustin's sister, Antonia want to use the money to pay for his son's expensive heart operation, putting the Redeemer's plans on hold. The Redeemer of course, used to have a shady past as viewers see in brief flashbacks shown throughout the movie, as he used to have a proper name as Nicky Pardo and how he got to be called "Redeemer" in the first place. As it is somehow connected to another deadly, ruthless killer, Alacrán nicknamed as "Scorpion" played by José Luís Mósca.

Because the star Marko Zaror, himself is 6'2 that it can be hard to accept him as an actual fighter on film, but there are nicely staged fight scenes mixed with some gun battles.
