HUNTING GROUNDS

Cinemavixion Review

John Portanova's "Hunting Grounds" plunges viewers into a primal struggle for survival, masterfully blending familial drama with a terrifying encounter in the wilderness. The narrative centers on a father and son grappling with loss and displacement, their strained relationship tested further by the arrival of old friends for a hunting trip. What begins as a seemingly ordinary excursion into the forest quickly escalates into a fight for their lives as they stumble upon a territorial tribe of Sasquatch. The film, which garnered 3 wins and 8 nominations, is noted for its tense atmosphere and exploration of buried emotions, even as it delivers a creature feature that aims to thrill. While the IMDb rating stands at 3.7/10, the film offers a unique premise that may appeal to fans of survival horror and folklore-inspired thrillers looking for something beyond the conventional.
