The premise

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.

Horror Vault's take

Twelve strangers wake up in an unknown location with no memory of how they got there, quickly realizing they are prey in a deadly game orchestrated by a group of wealthy elites. What begins as a seemingly one-sided massacre gets complicated when one of the hunted proves far more formidable than her captors anticipated. Equal parts vicious thriller and biting political satire, The Hunt gleefully skewers America's culture-war divisions while delivering relentless, bloody action. Betty Gilpin commands the screen in a breakout lead performance that anchors the film's escalating chaos.
