Missing 411: The Hunted

The documentary is just great. Dave narated the whole documentary and the cases were really stunning. I watched it already 3 times and i hope there will be more missing 411 titles coming out! Grat Job Dave! keep the work up!

I did enjoy this documentary but having watched a fair bit of background viewing on YouTube I anticipated that this documentary would expand further on the mysterious nature of the disappearances. That might be a little harsh yet 7/10 is still quite high. Missing 411 is certainly highly watchable even if you are unfamiliar with the phenomenon.

I'm watching this for the second time and if you like mysteries, the creeps and the outdoors, you'll like this. This documentary focuses on stories of hunters who have vanished without trace while out on legal hunts and some will be thinking "well, if they weren't out there shooting animals, they wouldn't have gone missing". Well, there's certainly validity to that argument but leaving that aside, the manners in which these people just vanished are very strange indeed.

For once, here's an American documentary series (there are other Missing 411 docs on Prime) that doesn't rely on relentless recaps, overly dramatic talking heads and intrusive music. What it has are the facts, presented via personal testimonies from those who were there, all set against stunning landscapes that are at once beautiful and frightening in their size and wildness.

For me though, the highlight is the section where footage is played of the eerie, creepy-as-hell sounds recorded by two hunters one night, out in the wilds. Really gets the hair on the back of the neck standing up because, I think, it taps into our primal fears of the unknown, what's out there and what dangers it presents.

Highly recommended.

A "documentary" for the gullible, ignorant, pliable, lackwits, superstitious, uneducated, religious. And having said that: the desperate. Something the makers of this kind of wannabe-conversant-beyond-actual-factbased-knowledge (read: gobbledygook) always rely on is the malleable mindset of a mourning person that is rather content with any answer than is left without one.

The only thing these claimed cases have in common is that in none of them the most rational explanation is even considered, spite being the most honest: we don't know what happened. Instead there's a contrived need to claim there's got to be more to it than meets the eye. And that's where the parasites jump on the disconsolate, pushing their own agenda as some twisted alternative truth, intended only to benefit the makers of this garbage - never the relatives reaching for anything that could externalize the reason to why their friend, sibling, spouse or parent never was found, instead of facing the harsh reality that sometimes it's but a sum of bad coincidences and unfortunate individuals are exposed to these conditions.

Shame on the team producing such false hope giving trite. And shame on the ones commenting somebody not convinced by the worse than poor, obviously fabricated or even non-existent "proof" presented within is somehow too skeptical a person. An open mind doesn't require your brain drops out, which here is the case.

The only disappointment was that it didnt last long enough for me!! lol I'm not sure what trolls are posting crappy reviews? My Husband and I just finished watching it and it's just fantastic. Everything from the graphics, to the way they detailed the missing peoples locations on a visual map as they told the story.. the creepy interviews they did with very credible people...I'm gushing. GREAT MOVIE. Im a fan. I liked this film a lot more than the first-which was ok but definitely a step above in every category. I'm recommending to everyone I know.
