QUOTES:

[from trailer]
Toorop: [narration] Save the planet. What for? Life’s simple. Kill or be killed. A survivors’ code. My code. And it all sounds great until the day you find yourself confronted by a choice. A choice to make a difference or to walk away and save yourself. I learned something that day. Too bad it was the day I died.

[from trailer]
Toorop: Are you a killer, Mr. Toorop?
Toorop: Yes. Now please, get into the car.

[from trailer]
Toorop: There’s no mercy for the weak!
Soeur Rebecca: I can defend myself.
