Decent, though flawed
redban0213 April 2024
I found this movie on Tubi. Compared to many of the movies that they have, this one is good. The plot is simple, but there are some thrilling moments. The movie does a good job with the gore. The main actress was OK

Some scenes, though, require suspension of belief. The main character gets injured several times, yet just a few minutes later, the movie basically ignores those injuries as if it never happened, making her appear 100% healthy. We also get eye-rolling scenes where a small woman handles some 200 pound grown men

But the main issue with the film, is repetitiveness. The hunting / chasing scenes make up the bulk of the film, as you'd expect. But after a while, it really felt like we going over the same ground repeatedly.

Wrong writing/casting for the protagonist
bigbadbassface4 March 2023
The protagonist isn't set up to be likable. The characters around her are awful people, but that doesn't translate to her being someone we care about. Very little character development and then she's thrown into a never-ending chase scene. Also the twist and villain's motivations were obvious from the first 10 minutes of the movie.

Another review mentions the only other person in the theater with them was on their phone the whole movie, and I would wager it was because they were bored. Good movies make me forget about time but I checked my watch a bunch during this one.

This paragraph is just to make my review long enough for the new six hundred character requirement instituted because Amazon's $1Billion snow ranked and got bombed on this site. Hopefully they change it back because this is a waste of my and everyone else's time for quite literally seemingly absolutely no reason. Boom six hundred characters.

Great movie!
homehorrorentertainment27 January 2024
Better than I expected! I really liked this Cat-and-mouse movie with some great visuals and sound.

The premise is simple with a lone night shift worker starting her first night at a warehouse. She soon finds herself in a fight for survival when she becomes hunted by masked intruders

The lead is very believable and the location is a real plus. What keeps it creepy is the simplicity and the realism.

Watch it and take it for what it is, it isn't You're Next or The Strangers, more like a simpler version of Kristy.

I would definitely watch a sequel with the lead in it.

I give this one a 7 out of 10.

This movie is bad but horror enthusiasts should watch it once
kevin_robbins5 March 2023
Hunter Her Kill Her (2022) is a movie that I caught in theatres tonight. The storyline follows a new evening cleaner at a factory. Her first night quickly becomes eventful when 4-5 men with masks show up and immediately try to kill her. She will do her best to survive while trying to determine why they're trying to kill her.

This movie is codirected by Greg Swanson and Ryan Thiessen, who also worked together on Five Across the Eyes, and stars Natalie Terrazzino (The Last Movie Star), JC Oakley III (The Hate You Give) and Georgia Kate Haege (Hectic Knife).

This movie has a made for television feel in terms of cinematography, writing, acting and dialogue. This movie will give you a glimpse into the worst babysitter ever, worst bandage job ever and the worst killers ever. There's so many sloppy sequences in this that leave you scratching your head. And when did the main character become MacGyver? I will say the sound effects the killer make while they're walking around are hilarious. The jump scares are pretty average outside of one or two. I will say the end is worth watching. The final fight is insane and there's a good hammer 🔨 scene.

Overall, this movie is bad but horror enthusiasts should watch it once. I would score this a 3/10.

Surprisingly entertaining
johannes2000-18 December 2023
Warning: Spoilers
I don't say that this is the best thriller ever, but it sure is surprisingly entertaining, taken the probably modest budget into account. I liked how the movie doesn't waste any time: within 5 minutes all the needed background information is given, and then immediately the action kicks in with the sudden entrance of 5 masked and armed thugs. The rest of the movie we see Karen alternately flee and hide, or, by chance or premeditated, physically fighting the intruders. This gives the story a high level of adrenaline, and the relentless, rage-driven way in which she kills one after another, with the according pretty well done gore, takes it to the higher (or deeper, if you will) level of a serious horror-flick. The whole thing is very one-dimensional (there's only one modest twist concerning the identity of the last one standing villain), but that suits the story fine. As does the (predictable) ending.

Sure, there are several flaws. Like why doesn't Karen immediately use her cellphone before stupidly loosing it; or how can she find her way so well in this immense and dark factory, it being her first day on the job. But this hardly marred my pleasure. The acting of most of the cast (the intruders) is irrelevant, they all stay masked up until their last minutes. So Natalie Terrazzino carries the whole project on her shoulders. She's not there for her looks, but for her athletic skills and resilience, and she does a great job, she's totally convincing as the frightened but determined power-woman.

Stop Acting Like You're Smart

Warning: Spoilers
Karen (Natalie Terrazzino) starts work at a furniture factory as the night time custodian. She has a long list of items to do every night. Her daughter (Olivia Graves) is at home sick as she regularly talks to the lousy neighbor sitter. While doing her job she is threaten by a couple of employees for not allowing her daughter see her father (JC Oakley III) on her birthday. There is an issue with him that we gather. After closing and she is the only person in the facility she is attacked by about 5 masked men. Her cell phone is dead.

The bulk of the film is Karen running and hiding being able to incapacitate one of her attackers one at a time. It is pretty much as expected. If you like this type of thing, this film gives it to you ad nauseam. The character background of Karen would have been nice to explain her abilities.

Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.

None of it made any sense
Christopher37019 February 2024
Warning: Spoilers
SPOILERS are in my review from the beginning so scroll away now if you want to watch this film without knowing the key plot points.....

I'm a big fan of 'fight for survival' and 'cat and mouse' films where the protagonist has to match wits with his or her attacker to survive the ordeal, but this film was just so badly done that it was painful for me to slog through to the end...but I did make it....and it was really quite a chore to finish it.

WHY didn't the guy just kill Karen when she opened the door to accept the delivery package and be done with it in 2 seconds? What the heck was that whole elaborate 5 man cat and mouse chase for instead? What on earth purpose did that serve except to be a lame plot device to see the protagonist go all Rambo on the 5 of them? There was just no reason for the 5 men on 1 girl chase that ensued when the delivery guy (who was one of the killers) could have just offed her when she accepted the package early in the evening. It would've taken 2 seconds to do it and the police would have chalked it up to a random killing.

For the ex husband/ex boyfriend to make such a big plan with 4 other guys (friends of his?) to chase her around an empty warehouse (that was apparently the size of Disney World) to kill her made no sense at all.

And the girl was no better. She had her phone right in her back pocket, yet when she realized there were 4 men trying to kill her she doesn't instinctively reach for the phone to call, or even silently text anyone for help. It's not until one of the killers catch up to her later on that her phone falls out of her back pocket and slides across the floor for the killer to break into little pieces.

WHY didn't she whip the phone out when she was hiding inside the barrel earlier?! I seriously doubt she forgot she had it lol. It's giant plot holes like this that pull me right out of the movie and is also insulting to boot. It tells me that the writer really thinks the audience is stupid.

Also, this girl never says a word either. I'm sorry, but if 4 strange men are suddenly trying to kill me while i'm working the first night at a night shift warehouse janitor job, i'd be shouting "Why are you doing this?! What do you want from me?!" It's just natural instinct to question this, but this character stays quiet even while the killer is right on top of her trying to take her life.

Isn't she at least curious why 4 men are chasing her around like this at her janitor job out of the blue?! I can see if she was working overnight at a bank watching a vault with billions of dollars inside. That would make sense because they'd want to get to the money....but why would 4 men want to take this much trouble to kill a female night janitor in some giant empty warehouse that had nothing of value? She didn't seem the least bit curious to ask LOL. Another clue that the writer apparently feels that the viewer watching is a complete idiot.

There are so many better fight for survival/cat and mouse horror/suspense flicks out there to choose from over this. Watch this one if you must, but i'm warning you now, you will lose brain cells watching it.

Oh and she has a screwdriver at the very beginning of the ordeal that she used to stab the hand of one of the killers, yet she drops it when she runs away LOL.... Sorry, but if you're in an empty warehouse overnight with 4 killers, you hold on to your weapons!! Whoever wrote this trash really had no clue how to properly write this type of story because absolutely none of it made any sense.

And finally, why kill the mother of your child just because she got custody of her? If you cared anything about your own daughter, you wouldn't take her mother's life. It's just another thing that made no sense. Perhaps a little back story would have put that into some kind of perspective, or probably not.

This is really just a bad, bad movie that will insult your intelligence the longer you watch it. It gets a 1 star rating from me and only because that's the minimum to give....otherwise it would get zero stars from me because there's absolutely nothing redeemable about this badly written film. Nothing at all. Give this a pass and find another cat and mouse flick to watch. You've been warned. Definitely NOT recommended.

Great flick well written
jpbaby-5626228 May 2023
Warning: Spoilers
My favorite part is she never over powers them with brute strength she's just smart af, she hides intelligently and though not much is said in the film the story is conveyed very well, also she John Wayne gaceys a dude with an extension cord and that's just bad ass. Overall I give it an 8 for a good edge of your seat, not knowing what to expect movie. With a never ending age old story of don't mess with a mama trying to protect her child.

Hope to see this actress in future films cause she isn't afraid to get her hands dirty and put her entire self into her part. Well done with this one guys!!

The only good thing about this film is the premise, everything else was abysmal
nicolasroop4 March 2023
This was a bad movie. The direction, the acting, the camera work, the script, everything except the extremely thin premise was a bomb from the get go. Ranks as the worst movie I've seen so far this year and undoubtably will rank in my top 10 worst by the end of the year. I can't believe I sat through the whole thing. Where was the tension? Why are these men so organized, almost like they played Call Of Duty a billion times before doing this? But, on the other hand, they are so dumb that they cannot come up with a plan to catch this chick other than the extremely basic one that we get set up with in the first place? Why is this chick so dumb herself? She couldn't make a life/time saving desicion if it was the last thing she does. Why weren't any of the machines in the shop used for killing anyone, when it was teased for so long towards the end? Why did they write this as a mystery if they were going to make it so blatently obvious who the villians are and why they are doing this? Why, why, why? I have about 100 other whys for this film, but I'm not going to bother asking them because I already know the answer. The director and producer are numbskulls who thought this would be a good idea but had no clue on how to execute it properly, let alone write a decent script or direct their actors appropriately. I feel bad for the actors because the script does them no favors. The bad guys sound like generic npc villians from a video game and all the other dialouge ranges from unbelievable to downright laughable. Nobody talks like this in person, nor would they act the way they do. Also, how do you not know when you're stepping on something, such as someones hand hanging from a ledge when you are literally looking for a person? Not even a glance to see what it was. Just dumb and reinforced my idea of this basically being video game cutscenes for a video game they didn't have the money to make. I could not recommend you stay away from this dumpster fire more. I got ripped off, don't let it happen to you. The 10's on this site were no doubt written by someone involved in the making of this film. Has to be, because the film could be a fun parody if it wasn't for the boring, derivitave and ultra serious tone it has throughout.

0 idiotic desicions out of 5.

Wow!!
ykjdh4 March 2023
Warning: Spoilers
One of the most intense horror/action movies to come out in years. It wasted no time getting started and makes the most of its low budget, limited setting in a warehouse. A young woman working as a janitor checks in for the night shift and all seems normal.

A group of scary looking dudes in masks decide to break in and she's suddenly an unexpected victim of chance. Wrong place, wrong time, but what is a normal boring night shift mopping floors, turns into a pretty good sequence of action. The heroine comes across as a real, thinking person's protagonist. You really feel for her and she tears up the screen trying to out think the villains who want her dead.

A highly recommended movie tends to be the lower budgets, rarely advertised. Had I'd not seen this advertised on fangoria's website, I'd have never seen it. Im glad I did.

One of the best horror experiences I've had very worthy of the 7.3 rating!
UniqueParticle4 March 2023
Focused on Karen that starts a new job as a night shift cleaner for a warehouse until she gets a package delivered once its open she's chased and hunted the rest of the movie. I was surprised only one person besides me was seeing the movie of which was on and off his phone that was a little obnoxious I was engaged throughout maybe he still enjoyed it. Hunt Her, Kill Her is a satisfying ghoulish pure horror gem that is gory, suspenseful, and has a great soundtrack! I absolutely love the masks and psycho voices; this movie caught me off guard with how enjoyable it is would highly recommend to horror fans.

I guess me enjoying this movie a lot was such a bad thing geez!
