We Still Kill the Old Way is a British crime drama film written by Dougie Brimson, Sacha Bennett and Gary Lawrence, directed by Sacha Bennett and starring Ian Ogilvy, Alison Doody, Lysette Anthony and James Cosmo.
A retired East End gangster, Ritchie Archer, returns to London from Spain to investigate the violent sadistic murder of his brother, Charlie, at the hands of a local street gang called E2. In the process, Ritchie discovers that the police are pussyfooting around the case, out of incompetence, fear or both. Ritchie and his old mates gather to pay their last respects to Charlie, and then set about getting revenge.
The film was released on DVD in December 2014.
Stephen Kelly of Total Film gave the film a score of two stars out of five and stated that it "plays its 'everything was much better in the old days' fantasy more as a crass cartoon than as stark social realism".
Producer Jonathan Sothcott brings in his involvement with a sequel to the film called We Still Steal the Old Way, with Sacha Bennett returning to direct and co-write the script alongside Simon Cluett. Ian Ogilvy and the rest of the lead cast members will reprise their roles, joining them will be Julian Glover, Patrick Bergin and Billy Murray playing the main antagonist. It was released in April 2017.
