The Silencers (1996)

PM Entertainment had some spare fedoras and trenchcoats, and a HR Giger jumpsuit, and decided to make a sci-fi action movie called The Silencers (1996), which feels like a 90 minute X Files episode where every 20 minutes Mulder and Scully leap in slow motion from a massive explosion, the type that turns the background […]

And it’s directed by Albert Pyun, who passed away recently at the end of 2022 and left behind a back catalogue of […]
