Av: The Hunt

Without shadow of a doubt, this was my favourite film of the online Frightfest. Some gripping performances and edge of the seat moments, made even more scary that for some women this is their reality. If you are considering watching this film, don't hesitate. Definitely worth a watch.

This is an excellent film tackling an important subject while at the same time a tense thriller throughout. Well acted and directed and beautifully shot. No easy routes taken in this anywhere. Highly recommended.

People in Turkey actually think like this? What a backwards society.

That aside, it's a pretty good action flick. Good scenery.

The lead actress needs to shave her armpits, but otherwise she did a good job.

Great film with a striking subject.Its tense all the way through . Very well done thriller !Highly recommended .

Violence against women is a huge problem in Turkey. The existence of honor killings in which a women is killed when she does something dishonorable (mostly adultery) leads to women being killed by their own families.

However this movie takes these facts and twists them in a way to make an "action" film with an orientalist view catered to outsider perception of Turkey then what actually happens in the country.

The film takes places in Antalya a liberal coastal city visited by millions of tourists. In reality the vast majority of honor killings happen in Turkeys conservative rural south East. This is like having the movie Deliverance take place in San Francisco.
