Out of Death is a 2021 American action thriller film[3] directed by Mike Burns and starring Bruce Willis and Jaime King.[4][5][6]
Photojournalist Shannon Mathers embarks on a solo hike to scatter her father's ashes. Along the way, she witnesses a secret drug deal involving corrupt cop Billie Jean Stanhope. Shannon hides and takes pictures of it, but she is discovered and chased. Newly retired city police officer Jack Harris just lost his wife to cancer and went to a remote mountain cabin owned by his niece Pam to get over his loss. While walking thoughtfully in the woods, Jack runs into Jean as she is about to execute Shannon. He draws his gun and tries to take Shannon away, but from then on they must escape a network of violent and corrupt cops and their sheriff Hank Rivers, who is running for mayor.

Production
Filming occurred in November 2020. Complications with COVID-19 safety protocols created difficulties in getting the cast and crew cleared to shoot and delayed production for several days. As a result, the entire film was shot in nine days and all of Bruce Willis's scenes, which included 25 pages of dialogue, were shot in only one day.[10] Out of Death is one of the last films to star Willis, who retired from acting because he was diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia.
Release
The film received a limited theatrical run and was released on demand by Vertical Entertainment on July 16, 2021.[11][12]
