It's a post-apocalyptic near-future, and the town where he lives is ruled by a corrupt dynasty headed by Hilda Van Der Koy. She is the one who killed his mother and sister and left him forever silenced and deaf. His only wish and mission is to see her die in pain. And he'll do anything to do it. To survive, he'll learn to read lips. To avenge himself, he will undergo the harsh training of a mysterious shaman. Guided by the voice of his favourite childhood video game, he becomes an instrument of death that nothing can stop. And on the eve of the brutal killing of his opponents, one of Hilda's annual pastimes, he unleashes a bloody slaughter.

Boy Kills World is a breathtaking display of Skarsgård's action mastery, mercilessly dispatching soldiers, axe murderers and the mascot from a cereal commercial. It promises a thrilling spectacle full of uncompromising battles and unexpected twists, paying homage to classics of the genre from The Karate Kid to Kill Bill and The Hustle to John Wick. Aside from the craftsmanship with which hectolitres of blood spurt out in all directions and limbs fly through the air, this frenzied ride is not lacking in a sense of hyperbole and aspires to be the action ride of the year.
