Reviews:
“Khalfoun bides his time until the final moments to take a stance, and only then does the murky messaging come into clear view. The journey getting there is frequently intense as it is muddy by its occasionally heavy-handed dialogue, but every single step is in service to that final punchline. Night of the Hunted taps into the prevalent rage of today to oft-thrilling results, though it sometimes stumbles in making its point.” 3 out of 5, bloody-disgusting
