Thing is, according data Harry (David Baker) and his team of real life vampireslayers have gotten from vampier headquarters, Bob is also "the Chosen One", the man who will save mankind from the vampire plague. Thing is, Bob feels by no means ready for the job, and even if he claims to be to appease everybody, he's less than sure whether he ought to even believe any of the whole vampire mumbo jumbo ... that is of course, until he runs away with Harry's daughter Sue (Monique Ganderton), and she eventually proves to be a vampire herself (though by no means a fully developed one) and sucks some of Bob's blood ... which actually does give him some superpowers he didn't have before, but it also attracts the attention of vampire leader Vincent (Anthony Delongis) and his muscle Dragos (Gary Kasper) ... plus, Harry isn't exactly happy that Bob bedded Sue, and he wants to show that, rather drastically ... and then Sue's abducted by the vampires, and Bob is her last hope - but he's anything but ready ...<p> <p><b>The Hunted</b> is basically just enormous fun: While the movie's designed to be an action-horror hybrid and features some expertly executed and really cool action setpieces, it also doesn't take itself seriously one single minute. But that's not to say the movie's a moronic laugh fest, it does feature plenty of tension, suspense and gruesomeness, just always with tongue firmly in cheek - which totally works for the movie, as its plot is not exactly original, so the art of making this one interesting lies within how to tell its story - and in the case of <b>The Hunted</b>, this is exhilarating most of the time! And add to that a directorial effort that gives the whole thing a certain 1980s B-action look, well-staged fights and some inventive kills, and you've got yourself a pretty fun movie indeed!<p>  </td> <td width="4" rowspan="2"></td> <td width="100" rowspan="2" background="../stylepix/squareright.gif" valign="top">  </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="592" valign="top">  <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> currentyear = "2016"; </SCRIPT> <SCRIPT language="JavaScript" src="../scripts/endcredits.js"></SCRIPT> <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> dosworsdonn(); </SCRIPT> </td> </tr> </table> </div> </body>
