HUNTER HUNTER: Attention Snagged

People buy books based on the covers. That’s a statistical fact. That isn’t the only criteria, no, but it’s one of them. I have never purchased a book solely because it had a snazzy cover, but I’ve picked them up for that reason, and read the back, and, if it had an intriguing premise and some good reviews, I’d go ahead and buy it. Humans are visual creatures, so imagery sells. The same applies to movie posters.

The poster for HUNTER HUNTER grabbed my attention. It may or may not be a werewolf movie; according to the official synopsis, it’s hard to say: “Hunter Hunter follows a family living in the remote wilderness earning a living as fur trappers. Joseph Mersault (Devon Sawa), his wife Anne (Camille Sullivan), and their daughter Renée (Summer H. Howell) struggle to make ends meet and think their traps are being hunted by the return of a rogue wolf. Determined to catch the predator in the act, Joseph leaves his family behind to track the wolf. Anne and Renée grow increasingly anxious during Joseph’s prolonged absence and struggle to survive without him. When they hear a strange noise outside their cabin, Anne hopes it is Joseph but instead finds a man named Lou (Nick Stahl), who has been severely injured and left for dead. The longer Lou stays and Joseph is away, the more paranoid Anne becomes, and the idea of a mysterious predator in the woods slowly becomes a threat much closer to home.”

The movie is scheduled for release on December 18th. Since it has an intriguing premise and a cool poster, I’ll check it out if the opportunity presents itself.
