WarHunt

Just another vampiri movie

Good movie, good action scenes

A brutal remake of the 1987 Arnold Schwarzenegger movie, The Predator, featuring a Blair Witch-themed Vampire villain that systematically hunts down a squad of GIs in WWII Germany. Instead of a South American guerilla hostage, a Nazi, instead of Carl Weathers as a CIA agent misleading the group, Jackson Rathbone as an OSS agent misleading the group. The boar tripwire scene is directly taken from the 1987 film. The vamp even makes the predator's trademarked clicking sound as it approaches! Top Critics didn't see the similarities immediately? I doubt they even watched this film.

Warhunt certainly has the makings of a decent action-horror flick, and can easily be enjoyed if one goes with appropriate expectations. While the film does little in the way of originality, the action is passable and the run time does not wear out it's welcome. The mental descent of the soldiers along with the shock value of certain scenes manages to work surprisingly well at times. That said, the film's largest drawback is one of technical nature. Warhunt is simply too visually dark, and even the muted lighting of the theater was enough to outshine a number of the nighttime and interior scenes.

This is a weeeeird one, and pretty low budget...

Nothing interesting or fresh here, it's just a pile of mess

With Grim Atmosphere and Bloody Violence, ‘Warhunt' Is a Killer Horror-Action Flick

Movie started off well, but started to fall apart at the midpoint. Some of the scenes were so dark (in the forest and the tunnel fights near the end) that the viewer cannot determine what is happening. Might as well show a blank screen. The ending was nonsense, so this movie gets 2.5 stars. Would not recommend.
