The Night of the Hunted - 4K Blu-Ray [4K Ultra HD Blu-ray]

One of Jean Rollin's least-seen and most underrated works, The Night of the Hunted (La Nuit des traquées) finds the director moving away from his trademark tales of vampirism to explore a nightmarish, dystopian world. In the dead of night, Elisabeth is rescued from unknown pursuers by Robert and taken to safety. But, after she is kidnapped and taken to an austere clinic whose distressed and abused patients are suffering from progressive memory loss, Robert sets out to find her and discover what is taking place in the clinic. Shot at night on a shoestring budget, with a cast mostly drawn from France's adult-film industry, The Night of the Hunted stars Rollin regulars Brigitte Lahaie (Fascination) and Natalie Perrey (Lips of Blood), and offers a stark and melancholic take on contemporary society.

Driving home after a work convention, pharma exec Alice (Camille Rowe) stopped at an all-night convenience station for gas and snacks. She didn't find anyone behind the counter... but she did take a bullet in the arm. The tense, hours-long fight for survival that follows-as she's tormented by the shooter (Stasa Stanic) via walkie-talkie, and she tries to warn off other potential victims-gets limned in this riveting suspenser.
