Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

I'm a horror genre freak...so I think reviews for this genre should be done by its fans to give an unbiased opinion. Disclaimer at start of film warned us of extreme, disturbing images and they weren't joking. Pretty much non-stop torture, murder, rape, and gore galore. You definitely haven't seen any of this content in a horror flick before. Plot is non-existent and the female lead Linnea Quigley is a bad actress...despite being an 80s scream queen. Gotta say this one was too brutal for me to handle.

Another of the many amateur made videos being flouted and touted as a horror movie by the producers etc in order to garner views. They get me all the time probably because i'm a horror fan like so many out there in on the "find a good one" search. The Bad guys trap, torture, and enslave the victims before forcing them to man the cameras to capture the blood and guts as they find and trap and torture and kill the next victims. Some of the bloody scenes are very gory and were hard to watch for me because i kept asking myself why? Why would they want to "pretend" like this and record it? This was not made in the Hollywood style, nor any style i can see other than the murder porno style which as made up as that sounds is all that comes to mind after watching some of this. Zero on a scale of 0-10 for me. Very bad and very unnecessary. I think i'll go wash now...

A brutal film where two brothers throw on ski masks and proceed to shoot snuff movies. They target campers and anyone else they happen upon. A group of people making a film themselves head to the woods not knowing what's in store for them.This was pretty disturbing so it won't be for everybody. They always find more depraved things for their victims to do for their film, each time more vile. Linnea Quigley had a role as a victim taken with her daughter. I thought it was odd for her to be in this as she usually doesn't do dark ones like this and she does have to do unconventional things. Ellie Church appears as another victim who I got to meet at Shock Stock one year.It will freak you out and have you wincing in disgust that's for sure. The film is half found footage mixed with regular footage. It does have that grainy 8MM look giving it a real snuff look. They go all out on the gore making it realistic as possible. There is abundant nudity as well (Usually really bloody nudity). If you got a strong stomach check this one out. Not a very good family movie.

"Hunters" is an extreme horror flick that begins with the disclaimer "The following film contains many scenes of extreme brutality and shocking acts of human depravity." This same sentence is on the DVD cover. I'll say this -- this is an accurate description of "Hunters." It is indeed filled with extreme brutality and shocking acts of human depravity. Unfortunately, that's about all the film is.The film starts back in 1961. A guy driving along picks up a female hitchhiker. Since this is a horror film, we know that this is bad news for one of them, and in this case it's the guy, as the guy is stabbed and killed by the hitchhiker. For some unknown reason, he drove her back to his house, where his wife and baby are there. The hitchhiker headbutts his wife (a "blink and you'll miss her" cameo by scream- queen Mel Heflin) and steals the baby.We then jump to 1987, where two brothers wearing masks are torturing a couple (we know they're brothers because they keep calling each other "brother"). After that, they attack a random family, kill the father, and kidnap the daughter and mother (played by Scream Queen classic Linnea Quigley, looking pretty good for being in her mid- fifties). Oh, also, at this time the guy from the first couple (who they apparently didn't kill) is now filming everything. And he is stark naked, with lots of full-frontal shots of this guy.We then meet up with five twenty-something kids who are leaving to make some sort of movie. We think that now, we're going to follow these annoying kids, but no -- we see these kids randomly throughout the film for a minute or two, but the rest of the time is just the two brothers brutalizing, raping, and torturing people while filming it. The film then tries a "twist" that doesn't really make any sense, and it is really just an excuse to be even more nasty and brutal.I've seen lots of extreme horror films, and there is a line between "disturbing" and "unpleasant." Unfortunately, in my opinion "Hunters" crosses that line. We don't really care about the victims, and the sadism is so extreme that it just becomes unpleasant to watch. And the filmmakers seem to be obsessed with dicks -- in addition to the aforementioned naked cameraman (who we see a lot of), we have two castrations (one is on a dead guy and for some reason, after he died his member swelled to a gigantic size) and a dildo that is approximately the size of a leg.I can admire the fact that the filmmakers wanted to "go extreme" and they surely succeeded. But unfortunately, "Hunters" really ended up just a catalog of horrific scenes. I'm not saying to avoid it at all costs -- not at all, if you are into extreme horror then feel free to check it out for yourself. But if you're not sure, then I can't recommend it.
