90 minsOverview
Twelve strangers wake up in a clearing. They don't know where they are—or how they got there. In the shadow of a dark internet conspiracy theory, ruthless elitists gather at a remote location to hunt humans for sport. But their master plan is about to be derailed when one of the hunted turns the tables on her pursuers.
How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A sharply satirical thrill-ride that turns the hunting-humans premise into a gleeful inversion: watching power structures collapse as the hunted become hunter. It's darkly funny, visceral, and driven by pure narrative momentum.

Reviews
This is a weird one. I don't remember any of the controversy when it was coming out, but it seems like such a random movie to get so much attention. I see what they were trying to go for, and sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't. Betty Gilpin is pretty great here though, so overall it ends up being more enjoyable than not, if you're into a dark political comedy/action satire version of ol' rich hunting the poor routine. I'm not going to go around recommending it though.
Not to be confused with the much better (and higher budget) <I><A HREF="https://boxd.it/iE9i">The Hunt</i></A>, this film, which doesn't look and feel like it was made in 2021, is a lousy attempt at any horror subgenre you want to throw this in. It lacks in all areas - acting, directing, and screenplay - and is a complete waste of 90 minutes that can be spent watching paint dry.
<b>Final thoughts:</b>
Do yourself a favor and immediately give up .
