Man Hunting

A teenage schoolgirl is kidnapped and taken to a cabin in the woods. Her unknown captor plays a sadistic game of cat-and-mouse with her, stalking her with a crossbow. When she is shot in the shoulder, her attacker patches her wound, and the game starts all over the next day. On the third day, she finds a road but is struck by a car. The couple in the vehicle decide to take the girl to a hospital but are delayed by a flat tire. In the meantime, the killer finds them and slays the man and woman. Once again, the girl is forced to flee.

Directed by Yasushi Koshizaka, Man Hunting leans on a strong ensemble — Tôru Amemiya, Tomohiko Isomura, Yô Kamiyoshihara — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about horror titles of 2010.
