'Boy Kills World' director Moritz Mohr talks about the wild action epic and how the title nods to the sitcom 'Boy Meets World.'
German director Moritz Mohr ‘s feature debut is the colorful and bloody revenge tale “ Boy Kills World,” which opens Friday in theaters. Bill Skarsgård plays the titular character, a mute fighter hellbent on revenge, complete with a dry inner monologue voiced by H. Jon Benjamin.
