The Night of the Hunted1980
Directed by Jean Rollin
The premise
A woman with no memories runs in fear through the night when she is rescued by a man passing by. They will both have to figure out who her mysterious enemies are and what they want to achieve.
Horror Vault's take
A terrified woman flees through the darkness with no recollection of who she is or why she is being hunted — a stranger's chance intervention may be her only lifeline. Together they must unravel the shadowy forces closing in on her before time runs out. Jean Rollin's 1980 film blends clinical dread with erotic unease, crafting an atmosphere that is as disorienting for the viewer as it is for its amnesiac heroine. Fans of slow-burn European horror will find its ambiguity both haunting and deeply unsettling.
