Elektra (2005)

Elektra follows assassin Elektra Natchios after she is mysteriously brought back to life and hired for what should be a routine target. Instead, she chooses to protect her intended victims and finds herself hunted by the deadly Hand. Based on the Marvel Comics character and spun out of Daredevil (2003), the film gave Elektra her own supernatural action story.
