Hidden Assassin (1995)

Hidden Assassin is a 1995 independent action film starring Dolph Lundgren, John Ashton and Maruschka Detmers directed by Ted Kotcheff, whose previous works include First Blood and Uncommon Valor. Released theatrically in most European markets as "The Shooter," the film was retitled when it was purchased by Miramax for an American home video release. Originally due to be filmed in Paris, filming was shifted to Prague, partly for cost reasons. There are two versions, a 89 minute American edit, and a 104 minute international edit.


The following weapons were used in the film Hidden Assassin:

Simone takes out another assassin with the M3. There were some inconsistency with the sound however, as her gunshots were fast enough to indicate semi-automatic fire, yet the sound of a pump action was thrown in the middle of it all.
