Those of you that attended our Panic Fest Tricks & Treats virtual festival during Halloween have already seen IFC Midnight’s new horror thriller ‘Hunter Hunter.’ If you didn’t, you will get your chance this winter to catch Shawn Linden’s film on December 18th. They just dropped the trailer today along with an official synopsis below.
‘Hunter Hunter’ follows a family living in the remote wilderness earning a living as fur trappers. Joseph Mersault (Devon Sawa), his wife Anne (Camille Sullivan), and their daughter Renée (Summer H. Howell) struggle to make ends meet and think their traps are being hunted by the return of a rogue wolf. Determined to catch the predator in the act, Joseph leaves his family behind to track the wolf. Anne and Renée grow increasingly anxious during Joseph’s prolonged absence and struggle to survive without him. When they hear a strange noise outside their cabin, Anne hopes it is Joseph but instead finds a man named Lou (Nick Stahl), who has been severely injured and left for dead. The longer Lou stays and Joseph is away, the more paranoid Anne becomes, and the idea of a mysterious predator in the woods slowly becomes a threat much closer to home.
