Indie director Stolis Hadjicharalambous gave us the heads-up that a new trailer for his gory action-thriller Crossed recently went live on the movie’s MySpace page. You can check it out below.
Crossed was scripted by Christopher J. Otis, who stars as a young hitman dealing with the unsolved murder of his father (Jerry Murdock), while also tangling with other underworld figures, including an especially sadistic killer called The Ripper (Javier Rodriguez, who also produced).
