A new poster (right; click for larger image) and trailer (below) for the martial arts action-thriller The Raid: Redemption has been released. The tagline: "1 ruthless crime lord. 20 elite cops. 30 floors of chaos."

The film stars Iko Uwais as Rama, a member of a special forces team, who arrives at a rundown apartment block with a mission to remove its owner, a notorious drug lord. The building has become a sanctuary to killers, gangs, rapists and thieves seeking accommodation in the one place they know they cannot be touched by the police. When a spotter blows their cover, Rama and his team must fight their way through every floor and every room not just to complete their mission … but to survive their bloody ordeal.

Also known as Serbuan maut — its original Indonesian title — the film is directed by Gareth Evans from his own screenplay. It opens in limited release in New York and Los Angeles on March 23rd, 2012.
