Deleted scenes are usually deleted for a reason, and that reason is that they're typically comprised of footage that's really not worth watching. But let's go ahead and toss that broad generalization out the window because as you're about to see, there are exceptions to the rule.
In this insanely gory deleted scene from The Raid 2: Berandal (review), rival gangs go to war, and we can promise that you'll be silently uttering the words "holy shit" at least a handful of times throughout the scene.

Posters, stills, featurettes and trailers have already heralded the imminent arrival of The Raid 2 (not subtitled 'Berandal' in this country, just as we didn't call the last one Redemption). And now here's yet another of the latter: a new 90-second teaser of glorious face-smashery and jailhouse rocking. In mud.This clip is officially dubbed The Internet Trailer, reflecting the fact that the web's numerous high profile interbloggers have already uniformly gone ice cold thick banana whips over Gareth Evans' punishing sequel. Basking in the minute-and-a-half above, it's hard not to share their enthusiasm. The Raid 2 – described by more than one hack of Empire's acquaintance as Once Upon A Time In Jakarta - picks up the story two hours after The Raid, and sweeps Rama (Iko Uwais) into a much broader world of corruption and violence as he infiltrates the ranks of a ruthless crime syndicate.Yayan Ruhian (playing a...

Also, during the 2014 SXSW Film Festival, where the film recently screened, Evans asked two of his stars, Iko Uwais (Rama) and Yayan Ruhian (Prakoso), to come up onstage and give the fans an impromptu demonstration of their skills. Fortunately for those of us who couldn't make it to the Texas fest, the good folks at Austin-based geek news site One of Us caught the action on camera.

A new featurette, fresh in via Youtube, for Gareth Evans’ long anticipated sequel to the widely popular first installment of The Raid franchise, has just been relased.
The Raid 2: Berandal (meaning hooligan), as a title, suggests brawny, functional violence yet as evidenced in this ten minute featurette, the film is far more nuanced and sophisticated. The featurette contains a sizeable chunk of footage, giving the viewer an insight into the mechanics of the film’s action and plot.
Following an animated preamble that features the film’s main cast members, we hear from Evans as he describes the latest exploits of Jakarta cop, Rama (Iko Uwais). Immediately following the events of the original, The Raid 2 tracks Rama as he is forced to join an anticorruption task force to ensure the protection of his wife and child. With his family at risk, Rama must go undercover and hunt for information...

If you’re already burning with anticipation for the martial arts and other violent madness offered by director Gareth Evans and The Raid 2: Berandal, here’s something to keep those fires stoked. Evans has hit Twitter to debut a new poster for the film. Designed by Omar Hauksson, the image of star Iko Uwais is built using a mosaic of images from the movie itself, most of them showing people hitting other people. It’s a technique that has been used in movie imagery in particular for a while now, but it certainly beats a basic floating head job.This sequel picks up the story two hours after The Raid and sweeps Rama (Uwais) into a much broader world of corruption and violence as he goes undercover in prison and infiltrates the ranks of a ruthless Jakarta crime syndicate. And yes, it looks even more gloriously violent than its predecessor,...

Every year, religiously, somebody passes out at Sundance because of a visceral reaction they had to one of the movies screened there. The latest to earn that dubious honor? Gareth Evans' sequel to The Raid: Redemption, entitled The Raid 2: Berandal.
According to The Wrap, a man who appeared to be in his early 30s fell ill during the Tuesday night premiere of The Raid 2: Berandal at the cavernous Eccles Theater in Park City, halting the screening midway through.
The man appeared to recover from whatever caused him to faint and after a while was able to walk out on his own power with the help of theater staff. Paramedics were apparently on their way to check him out all the same.

A protracted technical kerfuffle overnight led to Raid director Gareth Evans submitting to an impromptu Q&A on Twitter. Eventually, it also resulted in this brand new Indonesian trailer for The Raid 2: Berandal. It seems as if, surely, it must be telling us too much, but Evans promises that this holds "only spoilers for the first act set-up".<br>The Raid 2: Berandal picks up the story two hours after The Raid (Evans says "The [potential] Raid 3 would take place two hours before The Raid 2 ends"...), and sweeps Rama (Iko Uwais) into a much broader world of corruption and violence as he infiltrates the ranks of a ruthless Jakarta crime syndicate. As you'll just have seen, it looks even more gloriously violent than its predecessor, if that's possible. But it's odd how balletic it all looks when devoid of its crunchy sound effects. Can you have serene arm-breaking? We feel like we just saw one.

It wasn’t too long ago when Welsh filmmaker Gareth Evans blew audiences away with his instant martial arts classic The Raid: Redemption. After taking some time off to direct a segment for the horror anthology V/H/S/2, Evans is back with the sequel to that film, titled, The Raid 2 Berandal. This time around, Evans had a bigger budget and a longer shooting schedule, so if you were impressed with the previous film, this adrenaline-pumping first trailer should have you very excited. Gareth Evans has said the new film picks up two hours after the first one ends, and will have over an hour of non-stop action. Hit the jump to check out the teaser trailer.
The Raid 2 Berandal stars Julie Estelle (Macabre), Alex Abbad (Merantau), Marsha Timothy (The Forbidden Door), Mathias Muchus, Tio Pakusadewo, and Cecep Arif Rahman.
