(PCM) The Protector 2, in U.S. theaters on a limited run starting May 2, follows our hero Kham as he once again embarks on a crazy, violent mission to find his pet elephant, destroying anyone that gets in his way.
Boss Suchart is the influential owner of a major elephant camp. When he was murdered in his own home – the killer delivered three fatal blows on his body – all evidence points to Kham, who was present at the crime scene and was seen with the victim the moment before he died. Kham is forced to run as the police launch a pursuit.
Meanwhile, the twin nieces of Boss Suchart are out for revenge. But luck is on Kham’s side when he runs into Sergeant Mark, an Interpol agent sent to Thailand on a secret mission.
As Kham is hunted by several parties, he’s also desperately searching for Khon, his elephant, whose disappearance is involved with Boss Suchart’s death. In another twist, Kham is drawn into an underground fighting ring run by LC, a crime lord who’s obsessed with collecting top-class martial artists from around the world.
LC’s fighters are branded only by numbers, such as the lethal, beautiful Twenty and the diabolical No.2. These fighters are ordered to defeat and capture Kham for a special mission that LC has in mind.
A sequel of the global smash-hit The Protector, The Protector 2 is an extreme fight movie, an endlessly intense, nerve-racking film full of fists, elbows, kicks and daredevil stunt scenes and amazingly choreographed fighting moves that will pump hot blood through the body of all action fans.
