The pairing of Franck Khalfoun and Alexandre Aja has produced some tremendous genre films over the years. In various capacities, they have teamed up on High Tension, Piranha 3D, P2, and Khalfoun’s remake of Maniac. Now the duo are together again for Night of the Hunted, a remake of the 2015 Spanish film La Noche del Ratón.
Starring French model/actress Camille Rowe, Night of the Hunted centers on an unsuspecting woman trapped inside of a remote gas station, dodging the bullets of a sociopathic sniper.
The film was directed by Khalfoun who also co-wrote the screenplay with Glen Freyer. Aja is aboard as a producer.
Also in the cast are Aleksandar Popovic, J. John Bieler, Brian Breiter, and Monaia Abdelrahim.
Here’s the synopsis: When an unsuspecting woman stops at a remote gas station in the dead of night, she’s made the plaything of a sociopathic sniper with a secret vendetta. To survive she must not only dodge his bullets and fight for her life, but also figure out who wants her dead and why…
Shudder will begin streaming Night of the Hunted on October 20th.
