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.

The Hunt
So elephant in the room: this film seemingly has a lot to say about US politics. All the characters are caricatures of one extreme or the other. It’s all about as subtle as a grenade exploding in your trousers.
But ignoring that, I actually enjoyed it. The fights/deaths were fun, it got a couple of laughs from me, and the initial sequence when the hunt starts is brilliant.
The advertising campaign for this mostly seemed to revolve around showing Emma Roberts in a bit gag which is, frankly, genius.
