The Head Hunter (2018)

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

The Head Hunter (2018)

Post by Leisher »

Christopher Rygh is a dad living in a world set in the dark ages that is besieged by monsters. Basically, your typical D&D landscape. His daughter is killed by one monster in particular. He spends his whole life now hunting monsters and collecting their heads with the intention of finally getting vengeance.

Only 70 minutes long and essentially a single actor, so it's not heavy on dialogue. It is heavy on beautiful cinematography and special effects. Old school special effects, not CGI.

Rygh is pretty awesome just grunting and emoting throughout, and I honestly really enjoyed the film.

That being said, that ending...It's not going to make you happy. I have no fucking idea what happened, and a quick search of the interwebs proves I'm not alone.

Really good movie that either gets ruined or better at the end, depending on what you like. (Hint: If you liked the ending of The Mist, you'll probably like this one.)
